World Series 2017: What Folks Are Saying Pre Game 7 Twitter
From predictions to a Houston dazzling duo laughing off the Dodgers closer, these are guaranteed to get you ready for Game 7 tonight
HOUSTON, TX — If Wednesday night is anything like Tuesday, then Minute Maid Park will have throngs of people packing the stands for Game 7 of the World Series, just aching to see their Astros win. And the game's in Los Angeles, not Houston.
Houstonians have chomped at the bit 56 years for this moment, and the excitement is undeniably at an all-time high for Astros fans, and for many transplants who aren't traditional Astros fans — or baseball fans in general.
The 2017 World Series is already billed by many as one of the most exciting in history. So it's only fitting it goes to a decisive seventh game in the historic Dodgers Stadium, which surprisingly is hosting its first World Series Game 7 ever.
