It's only an avatar if the Cubs get swept.


Well, well, well, there's not much to say other than both teams won the WS in 2017 (Houston) and 2018 (Boston), and both teams were notarized as being a part of the big trash can sign stealing cheating scandal that won Houston's WS championship. Boston's manager was suspended last year because of it, and now it's like a big ol reunion for the ALCS. Yay!

While I'm sure both teams are looking to redeem themselves from those times, it really doesn't help, when MLB updates the official bracket to have Houston moving on before game 4 :cripes:

If the Astros make the World Series, I'd rather they'd play the Braves so in the unlikely event I go to a game, I can bring a sign that says "Still Mad About 1999".

Why is the Red Sox pitcher looking at his hat the way I look at a Magic 8-Ball for answers?

Astros/Braves would be an incredibly depressing WS in my opinion but hey that's just me

Also Sale didn't look THAT bad IMO, maybe he settles down and the Sox get some runs. 1 first inning run isn't that bad.

Because there was a runner on second base and they had to switch to alternate signs and these are the ASTROS so they probably changed them to something totally different just for this series. The meaning of the 2nd-base signs is always written under the hat these days for pitchers
