Hey, how about those Astros? Well done all around. And how sweet it is for Biggio and Bagwell to come up big in the decisive 7th inning. Nothing quite like a little redemption, is there?
The championship series ought to be a lot of fun, with bitter division rivals facing off in each league. And let me now just agree with Rafe about how Fox has promoted the Yankee-Red Sox matchup. Somebody buy Jeannie Zelasko a box of Depends - she might just wet herself at the first measure of chin music.
Anyway. Go Astros, go Yankees. Damn, I love the playoffs.
Posted by Charles Kuffner on October 12, 2004 to Baseball | TrackBackAnybody that beats the Braves is OK in my book. I picked the Astros and Yankees in the Series back in spring training, and I won't change yet, even if the Cardinals are the best team in baseball.
The Yankees - Red Sox series should be fun. I noticed that Major League Baseball had to recall some "Who's Your Daddy?" T-shirts after the Red Sox fans complained. Since I've been at Fenway Park several times, I can assure you that those are tame compared to what I've seen Red Sox fans wear.
