One of the craziest World Series games I've seen. Houston eeks out a win in eleven innings.

Great game!

Los Angeles should have left their starting pitcher in. He was lights out. Over managed and it cost them.

Houston has been lights out at home. Edge goes to the Astros now.

MLB ratings up! NFL tanking.

I just read Houston scored the most runs in series history.

Now, if the league doesn’t make the Astros open the roof because it’s not fair because it’s too loud.

Thanks to the Second Base Ump being so big, Houston survived. If that pick-off throw goes into center field, the Dodgers most likely score the winning run.

Instant classic. I almost had a heart attack rooting for the Astros.

Tape ran out for several minutes so missed an inning near the end.

Wow, right. 8 HRs. Most ever in WS. And only 13 runs total.

It was enjoyable- I wasn’t even planning to watch but noticed it got tied up at 3 all.

Now that was a fun game to watch. Starting off with the legendary Vin Scully and Fernando Valenzuela, who I haven't seen since the '80s, and then on to one of the wildest games I've ever seen. And the cherry on top is that the Dodgers lost.

I've been reading that viewership for the World Series is declining - a lot of people missed out tonight.

My youngest brother was visiting and had me sit through most of game 1. Baseball bores the hell out of me, but he is a die-hard Dodger fan, so I was patient.

Lucky for him he was on a flight back to the mainland during this game. Would have been excruciating for him to watch.
