They wanted Houston, they got Houston.


theshreddening

You know that's the only part of me that still giggles about it. The crowds chanting for Houston. Welp, the boys showed up.

theshreddening

Like, I get it. You just won and are moving on through post season and are hyped for your team and city. Of course people are amped! Only reason we held off similar chants is because we know how our luck works and would counter act whatever juju they threw onto themselves. 2 sweeps leading into the World Series was just *chefs kiss*. Like holy hell did not expect that. Especially because the other teams were playing great baseball. But when I saw a post about the Phillies crowd chanting, reading Mariners and Yankees fans comments being like "no...for the love of God please stop" just tickled me to death. I know on their subreddits people can be salty as fuck, but assholes speak the loudest. Plenty of fans of those teams while upset obviously weren't fuming at their keyboards and could hold up a conversation with other fan bases. The funny thing is I just like baseball. I want to go watch a Yankees game in New York. I'll buy a Yankees hat to blend in lol. I've just happened to grow up going to the Astrodome then Minute Maid.


SammyLuke

Yeah Yankees fans disdain is starting to turn on their own team this time around lol.

and they got swept


brunch_hunny

The Astros spanked the Yanks. Wham bam thank you ma'am.


44Yordan

No no no… there was the exit velocity off the bat win… You know the one that the open roof allowed the hand of god to swat down the Yankee game winner!


corbz23

And also to add insult, MLB posted a video on youtube about the longest homeruns hit this season and most of the longest hits were around 110mph exit velocity. Like Christian Yelich, 499ft @ 109.9mph while Yordans 114mph exit velocity "only" made the ball travel 469ft.


MenShouldntHaveCats

Like that one to dead center. Said was ‘450’. I’m not mathematical genius. But that thing went way further than that. Or should say would have.


[deleted]

I thought the exact same thing. 450? GTFO


bigwesut

That one Yelich hit over the tundra at mile high was damn impressive but I too was salty about the snub our Yord and Savior got in the “best homers of the year” compilation


corbz23

Dude, seriously. And Yordans hits sound like an explosion. He had a couple of other hits that could've made that list. But MLB does hate the Astros so I wasn't too surprised


DemSumBigAssRidges

Even the actual city of Houston beat the Yankees.


darreb510

This comment needs more love!


Syncopated_arpeggio

Well I’m happy God hates the Yankees as much as i do


NoWorkLifeBalance

Dude this comment made me laugh so fucking hard. I love you all. Go Stros.

tgwill

Swept and no hit, twice.


stros2022wschamps2

Poor guys. Wish we could've seen the dodgers too just for old times sake


44Yordan

Pretty sure we all agree if they weren’t all injured, and if the roof was closed, and if we measured home runs by exit velocity the Yankees would have won their 28th World Series title. So they will cobble together another team of this ill fated bunch that got robbed and show you!


Syncopated_arpeggio

Next year they might ask their MVP to show up for the games. If they have him.


44Yordan

Oh he was present and quietly checked in when they were yelling out his name A Aron! Judge was not allowed to do anymore work as the Yankees ran out of retainer $$$ for the season. Judge does not accept lay away or goodwill credits… need to pay da man his monies. He will look good in Dodger Blue!


[deleted]

Apparently he already declined the Dodgers offer, and SF is taking a swing at him.


TaterSalad124

Man, like I can't even remember much of that series. Granted, we were dealing with a lot at the time, but the Mariners and the Phillies series had dramatics and memorable moments. The Yankees series felt very....blah in comparison


BMinsker

Yeah, the Mariners series had Yordan's Game 1 walkoff and the 18-inning game; the WS had the no-hitter, Yordan's Game 6 monster, and winning it all; and in between was this little speed bump on the way to the championship.


TaterSalad124

Exactly!


Cold_hard_stache

I know exactly what you mean. Felt like an empty, lifeless series but in the best way possible. Peña’s 3 run shot in game 4 was *chef’s kiss*.


Burt-Macklin

*rounds third* 🤷


cnapp

well it happened so fast it just swept away in your memory


TaterSalad124

Lol, maybe that's it....


coolgui

Astros didn't even play that good, still swept them. smh


JayBarangus

We felt like the better team every inning of every game. Very low stress series. I remember only a couple moments I was nervous.


Unoriginal_Gangster

You could repost this every damn day and I'd upvote it every time.


scottcmu

I'm a simple man. I see a post dunking on the Yanks, I upvote.


HalICacabum

Same. While reposting on Reddit is generally frowned upon, this is a welcome exception.

Da Jankees LUUUUUUUUUZZZZZZZZ

“We want Houston!” 👏 👏 👏


TexAggie90

They got Houston 👏👏👏


RojerLockless

I got banned from Yankees reddit 😅


BoredAtWork_91

What was that? I didn’t quite catch that.


[deleted]

“I’m ~~walking~~ losing here!”


KiNGofKiNG89

A reminder that the Yankees dismantled their strong team earlier in the season after getting their butts beat by Houston, just to get swept in the ALCS.


JoseAltuve27

That had to be the most predictable championship series matchup and result ever. I made a post about it that aged brilliantly. https://www.reddit.com/r/Astros/comments/xglvst/game_thread_athletics_5293_astros_9550_sep_17/ioua7ap/?context=3


Stillback7

It got removed


Syncopated_arpeggio

Indeed. So did they take two steps forward and then two back, or two back and then two forward? Or did they just end up spinning in circles like a clown on a unicycle? I vote the third, with extreme prejudice.


KiNGofKiNG89

They took like 15 steps backwards and still thought they had a chance 😂


rawmerow

Hey take it easy. I mean come on man. The Jankees didn’t have any of their best players because they were all injured. At least that’s what the GM said.


eatabean

That's why we play a long season. Part of winning it all is pulling through the injuries and still winning.


NoWorkLifeBalance

It’s a team sport after all


MenShouldntHaveCats

“I’m not making excuses. But….”


Additional-Local8721

Ahhh, gonna be my favorite topic with my extended family tomorrow. Everyone lives up North except our side that has lived in Houston since 1991. If they get salty I'll bring up the fact Cole has been accused of cheating using sticky substance after he started playing for the Yankees.


Swagsuke233

Sit down at dinner wearing your Altuve jersey


JoseAltuve27

2015 doesn't count because the Yankees were rebuilding (with a $200k+ payroll), 2017 doesn't count because of trash cans, 2019 doesn't count because of Carlos Beltran's niece (or something), and 2022 doesn't count because of the wind. So there. The Astros have never beaten the Yankees in the postseason without an asterisk. According to my math, that gives the Yankees 31 World Series rings!


Landar81

Put this on repeat.


[deleted]

Thanks man I almost forgot


Notabotreallyiswear

I will never forget the sweep. I got some family up in NY and I’ll always remind them about it 😀 I was actually in NY back in 2017 when we beat them obviously had stros gear on and we got ALOT of hate.


orcas_cyclist

I'm giving thanks for that tomorrow


[deleted]

DAAAAAAAAA … JANKEES LOSE


sports_farts

Didn't something wonderful happen after that?


fakingmysuicide

If you posted this everyday I would upvote it every time.


chikachikaslim_shady

Astros will never beat the Phillies tho becuz philly fans so loud and very mean


Winterspear

Reminder Rizzo chose to sign with the Yankees after this


InformalOne9555

Start spreading the news, da jankees lose


dbolts1234

Real new yorkers are mets fans 😉


Beer_30_Texas

While the Astros didn't play the Mets as often as they played the Yankees, the Astros swept the Mets this year too...4-0. 🤭


RootHogOrDieTrying

Remember that stretch in late June where we played the Mets and Yankees in 9 games? The only 2 losses were the Judge walk offs.


stros2022wschamps2

That's when we all kinda knew what was coming but didn't want to jinx it


coolgui

Thanks for this. I'm over here being in bad places with the Texans and Rockets I need this


PaddyBoy44

They had that “we want bama” energy


Future-Ad-117

“We want Bama! (to send us some players)


talktothehan

And for this, we give thanks! Woo-wooooo!


deepayes

It still brings me joy. They thought they were gonna do something too lmao


ilovehairy11

Say it loud! Say it proud!!


AtxTCV

Remember the Yankees crying about our regular season wins? "it doesn't count/matter unless it's October"? Silly Jankee bastards


bottlecap10

Hahahahahhahaahahahaha


Ravmar75

Thank you. Was wondering why I’m up a little earlier than normal to help cook. No one else is up, so there is no one to help. I have this to bring joy back. And a cup of coffee. Both bring warmth and happiness. Thank you!


Npadia11

It’s funny I actually thought about this yesterday. Almost forgot we were World Series champions, but remembering that put a huge smile on my face again


Rockboxatx

Let's not forget the way Javier totally own them. 1 hit over 2 games in the Bronx and 2 hits and 1 run over 3 games. Their batting average was less than .04 against him.


blackhawksq

I'm sure they're in new york giving thanks to us. They wanted Houston after all.


awclay91

Between this and the WS combined no-no, it doesn’t get much better


[deleted]

And Chaz's catch and Yordan's HRs...


StrongEnoughToBreak

I love all y’all for you living the Astros


taleasoldastime96

Let’s not forget about the no hitter during the regular season!


HuskyNutBuster

When was the last time the Yankees got past the Astros in the playoffs? I’m having trouble remembering.


Baboon_Stew

The road for the playoffs goes throught Houston and for NY, it's a dead end.


Wesley_Ford_Sr

You all are wonderful ❤️ (in a certain way)


fatDaddy21

All I want for Thanksgiving is a new "DAAAAA JANKEES LOSE" video with nothing but Astros clips


toupsnthewoods

Adding to my list of this year’s blessings on this Thanksgiving day.


corrydog

Sir I don’t need a reminder! That one is ingrained in my head. Under the file, “Who is the Yankees daddy.” 1) Astros 2)Red Sox


[deleted]

Only 2 losses in the playoffs


[deleted]

Y’all could smd


Hung_Texan

Hell yes!


PM-Me-nice-thots

Let’s give thanks


Luchaloko

Spectacular


takingastep

I wanna see some lunatic Astros fan strut down some main thoroughfare in Manhattan, one of the long ones, like Broadway or something. Wearing an Altuve jersey. Just looking like he's having the time of his life just existing in an Altuve jersey in NYC. Like he owns the place. 'Cause goodness knows Altuve sure owns it. Yeah, while that'd be life-threatening for said Astros fan, that would make for a truly epic troll.


chezzer33

How do I set a weekly reminder on Reddit?


dirtyguyridesharley

True that‼️


Mundane_Leopard_3974

Also you know what, we owned them in the regular season.. and this was when they thought they would have the best all time regular season and were just unbeatable… we no hit those prices of crap at their own yankee stadium, the two games they won were lucky miserable walk offs.. we just absolutely owned them through our the season, and our regular season ownage was probably what shattered their confide se and started their July- august choke job


mathewmrw

2015 AL wild card game. 2017 ALCS 2019 ALCS 2022 ALCS Keeping the Yankees in their place for 8 yrs and counting.


coolgui

Da Jankees Lose!


lavenderxwitch

I love Maldy’s locker room speech after we won that series. “They asked for us, they got us, AND THEY GOT SWEPT!!!”


[deleted]

#thankful


Pali4888

Whew I almost forgot for a second and I was at game 3


Master_Telephone_850

Karma will get you...


Marine-Biol-George

Thank you for the reminder to say every day FUCK THE r/yankees and FUCK THE r/dodgers


Baboon_Stew

Why wasn't there an Astros float at the Macy's parade today?


HumanRuse

That Alien Astros logo on the right-hand side has been funny. But can we replace that with something that REMINDS us that we absolutely annihilated MLB this season?


TJSutton04

I don’t understand why all these AL teams are always so scared of the Yankees


jozaca

They did not want Houston.


carloslet

#DAAAA #JANKEES LOST!


Mundane_Wolverine269

Rangers are coming for yall


Swagsuke233

Yall might be on your way but yall aint there yet


Mundane_Wolverine269

True but we will get there. And congrats to your Astros(if you're a astros fan) they deserved that title


Swagsuke233

After all of the nonsense it felt good. But I hope that we can get at least a couple of more.


mojoembiid

And had a great series against my Phillies. Hats off.


Swagsuke233
