Schwarber has some Ryan Howard in him. There are times you can see as he STARTS his swing that he knows he just guessed right.

Philadelphia Phillies 7 - Houston Astros 0

Every Philly with a hit has scored a run on the hit so far (depeptive, we still only have 1 non HR).

The Astros were right, its really easy to hit homers when you know what pitch is coming.

Id like to get a chance at the plate as Im thinking I might be able to hit a HR now too :slight_smile:

Lance McCullers Jr. is just the 4th pitcher to allow 4 HRs in a World Series game -- and the first since Dick Hughes in 1967. The others: Gene Thompson (1939) and Charlie Root (1932).

And he's the first to ever allow 5. https://t.co/8Md2t6zWnF

Let Ranger do another inning to save the bp for tomorrow. Might even be willing to throw Gibson out there.
