You can't hire Brad Ausmus and expect to contend.

Too much pitching from the Astros, they defeat the Dodgers to make LA the first team to lose three consecutive World Series since the NY Giants from 1911-1913.

Fans injured at MLB games from balls. Didn't know it was this much - and it is likely far greater. Since MLB knows, this makes me re-think the legal rule that fans assume the risk. Fans don't know the risk of injury. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/sports/we-re-going-need-bigger-net-foul-balls-hurt-hundreds-n1060291 MLB knows it, and conceals it.

How many were staring at their phones instead of the game?  If you're not going to WATCH the baseball game, don't go to the baseball game!

Cards came from behind to win a nail-biter 7-6.

So weird that the Braves and Dodgers would be the best teams in the regular season and flame out in the playoffs.

It is at times like this that Giants fans, after enduring another losing season with only a brief glimmer of playoff hope, like to remind everyone that Clayton Kershaw is the best pitcher in baseball...in July. As a Giants fan, I am happy to be that pathetic soul...

Not weird at all....the postseason produces a nearly random outcome.  The wild card system and before that, the division series, has skewed the baseball postseason more towards entertainment and further away from competition.
