Thankfully there won't be a Yankees & Dodgers World Series. Good to see Tampa beat Gerrit Cole and Chapman

Go Braves!

I hate Houston for all the same reasons everybody else does. So a Rays/Braves WS would be my hope. Just taking it one series at a time though.

I'm probably the only Rays fans on the board. I'm so excited for this team. What a game last night. Now they have to beat the Houston Cheaters 8)

I think I woke up the whole neighborhood when Mike Brosseau hit this home run.

He was claiming the Nats last October. Go 'Stros! Let the haters hate.

I'm a Rays fan. Have been since their formation. Anybody who has been around here as long as you have should know that. I haven't exactly kept it a secret.

I've been to a ton of Nats game and was happy to see them win last year.

Yeah man, when I lived in Tampa I use to go to a handful of games at the trop. One of the few! Haha.

This team has a special energy about them. They are a fun team to root for for sure.

I'd like to see Ray's vs Braves World Series, an all southern classic.

I think three out of the four teams left are really fun to watch and root for. I’m partial to Atlanta. But the Dodgers and Rays are just as fun.

I hate the Astros for cheating the way that they did. But even I can admit if they pulled it off this year, it would be the ultimate “Us Against the World” story.

That all 32 teams cheat. The Stros just took it so far it became obvious.

I'd love to see my hometown team face the Dodgers in the WS and shut up all the haters.

If this was just stealing signs then I would tend to agree with that but this went far beyond that. This isn't about being a "hater". I work with a pretty big Astros fan and he has enough sense to realize that.

Rays are up 2-0 but I'm nothing is ever a sure thing so we will see how the rest of the week goes.

Braves did all they could late to give it up. 7-game series. Dodgers offense finally wakes up, that series is FAR from over.

I'm liking our chances tonight with this being a bullpen game for both teams... We have a lot more experience with this... Go Rays!!
