Just two more losses and
The Bronx Embalmers will take to the links for the balance of October. Today,
Jose Altuve and
Carlos Correa teamed up to smite
The Pinstriped Posers by the same 2-1 score they put on them yesterday. Altuve smacked a ninth-inning, one-out single on a 100-MPH fastball from
Aroldis "I'm Not On the Cubbies Anymore" Chapman. A gap shot by Correa—coupled with a missed cut-off by
Aaron "K" Judge—led to the winning run scored by the fleet
better-be AL MVP Altuve. A throwback complete-game performance by
Justin Verlander (124 pitches) set the tone for the 'Stros, who take a commanding two-games-to-none lead back to
The Concrete Bunker On 161st Street. It's just a matter of time.
