    Puig one hands a 2 run shot. Now a 12-11 game! Officially the most HR's in a WS!

    Now a 12-12 game going into the bottom of the 9th!

    Astros twice fought back from 3 run deficits, then twice establish a 3 run lead, only for the Dodgers to get it all back again. Amazing game!

    What a game to watch.

    As i live in London I have to stay clear of this until I've seen my recording but that was an epic game.

    Travel day now and back to the Dodgers Stadium where they need to win.

    Taz, do you currently live in the US?

    Personally I prefer a well pitched game that ends 2-1, but that was a wild game.

    Heart breaking loss for the Dodgers (as you say), you wouldn't expect Kershaw to give up a 4 run lead (although his post season career ERA is 2 runs higher than his regular season ERA).

    I'd now make the Astros the slight favourites, although if the Dodgers can beat Verlander tonight, then anything can happen in a Game 7

    Ah gotcha, it was just your times when posting.

    The missus, myself and her kids plan to move out to California in a couple of years time, she has family there, near LA.

    I just recently subscribed to BT sports for Celtic's Champions league games and was pleasantly surprised to see that the package covered MLB.

    I used to watch it avidly when it was on Ch 5 years ago in the days of Ken Griffey Jr, Mark McGuire and Sammy Sosa.

    It's been great getting back into it and looking forward to the next season after this one is done already.

    Haha, yeah, know what you mean, @Gerry1972 I remember watching it when it was on 5 also. Think they stopped doing it, must be close to 10 yrs ago now. In fact, I remember often havinf to be on night duty for my daughter when she was a baby and many a time when the game was on in the background, lol. Nowadays I content myself through the regular season with just having whatever the free game of the day is on mlb.tv, and just pay the subscribtion for the postseason.

    Looking forward to G6 tonight.

    Just finished watching game 6 there.

    I really didn't see Dodgers getting any joy whilst Verlander was on such fine form, but they pulled it out the bag.

    Gonna be a very exciting game 7.

    Astros out to a big early lead here, 5-0 mid-2nd w/ Darvish already knocked out of the game... for the 2nd time in this WS, both times he failed to get through 2 inning for LA.

    Long way to go here.

    4 run ballgame now, and Kershaw now out of it. Considering Kershaw pitched 4 shutout inning on short rest, if LA lose this the first question will be 'why didnt Kershaw start'?
