We only needed to win 1 in Houston. But 1 more would be nice.

Go Nats!

I don't really buy into the power of home field in baseball postseason play. I don't feel any better when the Nats are at home. So, I don't look at tonight as house money because we already got a split. I look at it like the guy who has been our best pitcher is on the mound, and we better not squander that.

Strasburg has apparently never been a bigger underdog his entire career

(I'm sorry to ask this here, but I'll delete it afterward; I searched the forum for an answer but had no luck.)

I made a picture for tonight's game but can't post it!
How do you enable the image attachment feature that lets you select an image from your computer? All I get is the set of [img] tags and nothing showed up in the preview when I tried it.

Thank you

You can't upload it to the forum. You have to post it somewhere else (some image hosting service) and link it here. I've posted things on to Google drive, made them public, and was able to share them here.

Yup, I tried it with the Google Drive shareable link. Thanks for the response.

So I keep reading about how Game 2 is not a must win for the Astros. Game 2 is absolutely not a must win for the Astros.

Game 2 is a must win for the Astros.

Because Game 3 in DC is badass mofo Juan Soto's 21st birthday.

Juan is allowed to drink 1 light beer Friday afternoon, that's it.
