So, the competition moves to Philadelphia today for the next 3 games. The Series is tied: 1-1. Always nice for the traveling team(Phillies) to win one game on the road. They can win it all if they win the next 3. The Astros need 1 win to return to Houston for the decider. Houston's pitchers will focus on winning one out of three to make it happen. Dusty Baker will sit back and manage in his low key, but serious style, not thinking what the final outcome will mean to him.
Whereas there is much sympathy in the Phillies quest for a championship, I think the empathy of the moment goes to Dusty. He is deserving, after his lengthy career on the field and in the dugout gives him ample credibility. Go Dusty. ( yes, the Mayor recalls Dusty as a player with the hated Dodgers, but is willing to let bygones be bygones).
