White Sox are the only team to beat the Astros in the World Series. Will the Nats be the next?

Going to be tough. Obviously hoping for Houston. Pitching matchup will be unreal. If they want to win, they better learn to capitalize often when they have runners on base. New series so does Alvarez get a mulligan or Diaz in for dh?

Dude we get it. It was 20 years ago, the Astros we’re still in the NL...

This will be a fun one. I am ok with both both, hope it's just a fun one

Who knows how it turns out when the games start, but can anyone think of a more solid pitching matchup than these two teams?

Actually 14 years ago.

Congrats on winning in 2017.

We won in 2005. You won in 2017. Everyone is happy

They should make the WS best of 9 again

Ewing Theory? I haven’t heard that term since Bill Simmons wrote for Page 2. I thought it jumped the shark long ago

ninjacookies · 10-20-2019, 12:00 AM

As much of a feel good story the Nats are this year, I can't see them winning. Stros have way too many clutch guys that can beat you along with experience.

Barely. Only won in extra innings against a team that had most of their players injured

Sox swept the Astros and went 11-1 in the postseason. In the ALCS they had 4 complete games in a row and were 8 pitches away from a 5th

I didn't want the Yankees to win the WS, just wanted them to win the pennant so the Nats had a better chance
