Jackie Robinson getting to play in the 1947 World Series his first year with the Dodgers. And, for me, the 1985 Royals coming back from a 3-1 deficit against Toronto in the ALCS and then the Cards in the World Series! Baseball is just the best!

Yes. But I doubt Kerbie concurs with your view of ‘85.
Now that you bring that up, I remember that both the 85 and 86 World Series began with the home team at 0-2, both went 7, and both featured amazing come backs resulting in the home teams coming back from 0-2.
Those were great series for folks who aren’t Cardinals or Redsox fans.
I think the Astros have the ability to fight back. Let’s go 7.
