They started talking about a no hitter in the fucking 4th.  Smoltz should get kicked in the nuts.

Smoltz didn't. He didn't say anything about it til it was over, then he took a little dig at the PxP guy and said "I just can't do that". 

But he's still John Smoltz, so yeah, a good nut-kicking is definitely in order.

Jokes on you both.  Smoltz has no nuts.

Just glad Houston is back in it

[Humble Beast 258]

I will say that across sports broadcasting, it’s hard to top the cred of the lineup of ARod, Big Papi, and the Big Hurt. They are very good together.

Lol at that “history”. That’s not a legit no hitter whatsoever. It needs to be one guy doing it.

Didn’t realize javier started the fake no hitter game. That actually bodes well for the yanks today, no one dominates a lineup twice in that short of a time span.

Did the Phillies get a hit? No? Hmm ... that seems like a no-hitter.

Best part of this game is it assures me I get to take the fam to game 6. Gonna be awesome!

So if 4 of us fuck your mother, is she still fucked, or does it only count if it's 1 of us the whole time?

Amazing work, Astros. Watched at the bar. Very exciting to see it done to the Phillies, in Philadelphia lol.

Helo is like that married husband who wants to take the whole thing up the ass in a fancy hotel room but settles for a handy in the bathroom at Buddy's. His obsession is obvious and he so badly wants to be an Astros fan but he just can't come out of the closet to admit who he is.

Speaking from experience?

Javier is a great pitcher. This game is both an impressive team accomplishment and also not a legitimate no hitter. All of those things can be true at once and they are. Tonight sucked. Whatever, looking forward to verlander and his awesome World Series magic tomorrow.

Your team won a World Series game on a combined no-hitter and you're posting about Helo?

Y'all need real help.

The fact that I'm posting about Helo in this thread in the wake of that shows you how much that no-no means to me. It's cool, yeah, but the series-tying win is what matters, I reserve that commentary for the Astros thread.

Helo is a bitchboy crybaby regardless.

Pretty cool all things considered.

If we lose, we at least had the second no hitter of all time in the WS. I feel like thats still in special company and should be celebrated as such even if we lose the series

IDMAS if the Astros lose, and if they win it's just a hood ornament.

Javier is a badass either way.

[Gourmand 7774]

This is exactly the right attitude and it mirrors what the Astros felt after McCullers got his shit pushed in last night. Losses are never wins but some are easier to stomach than others and easier to not ruminate on what could have been. Philly's bats are dangerous and they aren't going away quietly. 

Justin Verlander can't assume the Phillies are lacking confidence after Javier's gem, he has to be on point early in the count with quality strikes. They're going to make him work. I'm rubbing all my candelarios to give JV the strength to avoid those HRs....

This is what most of the newcomers don’t understand. Momentum in baseball is tomorrow’s starter. 

 

Quoting Helo after a no-no is fucking embarrassing, we have a best-of-3 World Series now. That’s what true baseball fans know.

JV better have it too

I;m going with fat finger mistake rep

Philly is dangerous and white hot over the last three weeks or so. They could very easily take JV deep a couple of times early in the game and set a tone that quickly erases what Javier did tonight. I'm an Astros diehard so that is the last thing I want to happen but Verlander's career postseason stats have to make Philly fans a bit less nervous about gm 5. Gambler's fallacy is screaming at me that Verlander is due.....

 

[shadow_operative2.0 15964]

No, he’s probably just drunk. Another typical October/November fan, he saw the Philly tweet, got mad. Those guys do that. 

[Planet Houston 4930]

Derka fan police out in full force, OK dude. You’re one of “those guys” I guess. Cool!

[shadow_operative2.0 15964]

I’m not Derka, you fucking imbecile.

All you bandwagon Phillies fans, how’s your team thread these days?  Hate us cause you ain’t us, it’s fine. 

According to this fucking idiot, ONLY @Bartles should be allowed on this thread. 

Every single fan of another team should be banned from all MLB threads the millisecond their season is over. 

[Planet Houston 4930]

Reading comprehension is hard.

I didn’t say non-Astros fans aren’t allowed on this thread, or that it’s only for Astros or Phillies fans. Just talking shit back at those who are on here solely to hate the Stros. 

And really? Not Derka? Hmm. I thought I had the basics of “Board Discussion” down but obviously not. 

Edited November 3, 2022 by Planet Houston

[shadow_operative2.0 15964]

Where would you like non-Astro fans to post during the WS? What other thread would be acceptable for Planet Houston? 

Your team threw a no-hitter to even the WS, & you’re STILL mad. You’re not exactly sure who you’re mad at, but keep on. 

[BrazilHorn 6586]

Verlander has to a quick hook tonight for sure. Can’t let whatever plagues him in WS action blow another game. 

[Fudbelty 2788]

Aged well, huh?

We’re having fun here, no?

Holy shit this is embarrassing. I hope you're kidding. 

You realize that came a game after Philly tied the WS record for home runs in a single game, correct? 

And it was combined. I mean GMAB.

I like y'all again in the series now. Was leaning PHI after G3 but G4 felt like must win for HOU and they got it done. I think you can even lose tonight and still be in the driver's seat to some degree. 

[Victorious1 140]

Verlander needs to pitch the best 5-6 innings of his life tonight
