Anyone watching the post season games? Got picks for the series?
Go Astros!

Go Braves!
I want to see them play the Rays.
It would be grand to see two southern (U.S.) teams go up against each other at the big game.

I would be just fine with that too twina!
shareI don't know much about baseball, to be honest.
All I know, is that at one time, the Braves were the team to beat, kind of like how the New York Yankees once were.
I've heard should the Rays lose another game, they're out of the tournament or their division; may have it wrong.

Playoffs, twin, playoffs.
shareBut what does it mean???...

Don’t sweat it. I make football picks all the time and I’m clueless about that sport.
shareHeck, if we all could understand the game, most of the fans watching in the stands wouldn't need to drink so much. 😄

Good clip twina. I was raised up on baseball so I’ve always been a fan, but I realize we’re a dying breed. I advocate more baseball fights and more streakers just to step it up a notch.
shareA little over a year ago, strntz gave an awesome explanation on how the sport has changed and what has caused it to be the way it is today, during an exchange I had with him in AngularTurnip's "What is the dullest sport in the world to watch?" thread.

I don’t care about popular opinion. I’ll always have heart for baseball. I like angularturnip quite a bit too! Go Astros, they on fire right now!
shareParaphrasing Mark Twain, "Should you ever find yourself on the majority side of an opinion, more than ever would be the time to reflect as to why."
You never know, future technology such as virtual simulators, like the Holodeck shown in Star Trek Deep Space 9, can create a revival in the sport.
As cool it would be for Tampa to win this thing, after being hit with bad storms the past few years, Texas needs all the good cheer it can get.

So sorry Tampa got hit with bad storms (I mean, it’s Florida) but looks like no doubt Astro’s are going to the playoffs!!! Whoop whoop!!! 👍😆⚾️🥳
shareThe gulf coast is a hot bed for fierce weather.
I meant Texas got hit with storms - Hurricane Harvey and the more recent tropical storm Imelda, which seemed to cause just as much trouble as the former, if not more.
It's anyone's ball game. 👍

Brewers melting down at the end of the wildcard game hurt.
I'll probably tune in to a few games, like if any go to a game five in the divisional and some of the world series, though.
Jacob last year slayed me when the brewers lost to the dodgers, I completely understand. Brewers are my #2 team.
