Astros through to payoffs for first time since 2005 whilst the Yankees are booed off the pitch. Astros got two home runs, both off Tanaka. Once again the Yankees really struggled against left handed pitching. It’s the sixth straight season for the Yankees falling short of the World Series. There will be a lot of smug faces, including mine, from Mets fans at work today.

I would tell them to go and drown their sorrows....... and end up with the big man in rehab.

Have you got any tickets for the Mets?

Yankees are booed off the pitch.

Are you pointing at Tanaka? It was the Yankee hitters who couldn't score runs. Oh! Off the pitch! The field! I'm so Americanized these days.

Will be watching on the tellybox

Mets v Dodgers should be a good close series, can see mets (pains me to say!) winning it.

How do you guys honestly rate your chances of going all the way?!

Unfortunately Mets/Dodgers will push all of the Cubs' games to the 5:00 p.m.ish hour and make us all hurry (pushing people aside and dodging bullets-better than Dodger bullets) to get home for the games. Ratings for Dodgers/Mets will still be higher despite the Cubs/Cardinals rivalry. I'm thinking about using the police siren.

For a Mets fan I'm strangely optimistic!

I'm totally in the Cubs camp now, it's been too long since their last World Series success.

As I've just moved to Toronto it seems only right to jump on the Blue Jays BANDWAGON. I'm pretty sure EVERYONE in Toronto owns a piece of Jays merchandise.

Sorry to hear that

Heavy snowstorm strikes Toronto

I would love to see a Cubs v blue Jays or Astros final! Incredible story if any of those won it!

I'm not sure what point you're trying to make with a newspaper from 1944, I imagine there were more British deaths then.

I'm looking forward to the snow

You'll say I like the snow at first but when it lasts from Dec to April you will suddenly say "when will it go away?"

Actually it can be worse in Chicago depending on the year.

I have been here in January before, so I know what it's like. It's not like it's going to come as a big shock.

So what if they get snow storms? I'm just going to try and make the most of living here rather than moan about the weather (which is what everyone does in the UK anyway).

No bet in tonight's game, but have backed the Royals to win the WS at 11/2.

Nope.... Although I live in the GTA which technically isn't Toronto, so your statement could still be true.

I'm basing my findings on observations made walking around the downtown area, not particularly scientific. Also, I don't own any Jays merchandise so I've already disproved my own argument.

But there are a LOT of people walking around, looking like the Blue Jays Store has thrown up on them.

What a time for the offense to go silent Yankees. Well to be fair, its been silent for a while. Allowing only 3 runs off the Astros is nothing to be mad about, but for the second highest run scorers in the MLB, we've been poor recently. On to next year, hopefully Bird continues to fly, and Severino throws consistently. Another playoff loss is not good enough for the Yankees, and i could only imagine what George Steinbrenner would have had to say about it.

That always happens when any of the Toronto teams suddenly have a sniff of success. All the glory hunters crawl out of the woodwork.

If you'd seen the Jays attendances at the SkyDome last year, you'd think they were a 2nd rate no hoper team. This year, the crowds are back.
