Yea but luck has a lot to do with this series....over 100+ games no...but over 3, with this umpiring crew, it absolutely does. It was extremely unlucky that Altuve got hurt and couldn't even play 2B. It was extremely unlucky that Altuve's HR in game 4 was called incorrectly. It was extremely lucky for Boston that Kimbrel didn't blow a save in game 4. It was extremely lucky for Boston that Benintendi's dive worked out. It was pretty unlucky for Houston that Verlander hung two curve balls last night.

So yea luck does have something to do with that....What is clear is that Boston isn't that much better, if any better, than Houston from a baseball standpoint. However, in baseball more than any other sport the best team often does not win.
