Kate Upton cheering as Verlander becomes the 2nd Stros pitcher in 2 games to tally double digit k's

Nolan Ryan, Mike Scott, Keuchel last night and now Verlander, all-time in Astros playoff history. Damn the Yankees strikeout a lot, and they both are great pitchers.

With the dynamic duo of JV/Keuchel out of the in games 3 & 4 I'm predicting the Yankees will win at least one of them, possibly both.

Nolan Ryan, Mike Scott, Keuchel last night and now Verlander, all-time in Astros playoff history. Damn the Yankees strikeout a lot, and they both are great pitchers.

Those are some great names to have pitched for a single organization in the playoffs.

This postseason Keuchel & Verlander have combined for: 28.1 IP 30 K/9 BB 1.51 ERA, 0.95 WHIP

 

[death2redemptions]

11th strikeout for Verlander

Those are some great names to have pitched for any team in the playoffs.

This postseason Keuchel & Verlander have combined for: 28.1 IP 30 K/9 BB 1.51 ERA, 0.95 WHIP

That's just stupid.

Strikes out the side in the eighth.

Strikes out the side in the eighth.

Went for a quick drive...didn't expect to see Verlander still pitching when I came back. 117 pitches & 13 strikeouts.

 

[death2redemptions]

What's the record for strikeouts in a postseason game? 14?

 

[death2redemptions]

Amazing...

9 IP, 1 ER, 5 H, 1 BB, 13 K (1.00 ERA/0.60 FIP/0.67 WHIP)

 

[WCTYSON]

Wow, what an ending. Correa and Altuve, two of the best.

 

[death2redemptions]

What an amazing performance by Verlander

Dayum! My ODU homie!

Awesome ALCS game! Might be the biggest height differential of an outfielder trying to throw out a runner at home. It would be cool to see the 2 of them standing next to each other.

The NLCS game was great too. It's really ashame Seager is out for the series with an injury. I feel bad for him. Hopefully both series go 7 games. I look for the Cubs bats to bust out in the game today.

Great game to be at last night, the crowd was hyped. The Yankees were lost at the plate against Keuchel, nothing too meaty to hit hard. My only complaint was there were a lot of Astros fans that cheered when they thought Tanaka was hurt on that liner off his leg. You always want to beat a team at their best. Hopefully the rest of the series is as good as game 1.

I agree with this. Just remember that when teams make the playoffs a lot of adult “fans” show up. It is usually these people cheering for injuries.

Justin Verlander is a boss of the postseason. His career numbers in the playoffs:
10-5, 3.18 ERA (3.39 FIP) 1.07 WHIP, 116 IP, 128 SO, 9.9 K/9 3.66 K/BB

 

[death2redemptions]

Dallas Keuchel is a budding postseason monster too. His numbers in the playoffs:
4-0, 1.69 ERA (2.81 FIP) 0.98 WHIP, 26.2 IP, 31 K, 10.5 K/9 3.44 K/BB
