WTF...”narrowly beat”....fake news..

Narrowly or huge, both are losses.

Narrowly is a poor choice of word. They won in 6 games, not 7 and won this game by 2 runs. That is far from the definition of narrowly.

Narrowly? Ha Ha Ha...yankees fan i guess?

Narrowly? 😂You clearly don’t watch sports

Narrowly beat them! Here they go with that BS!!!

HAHAHAHAHA You Twits. ASTROS WIN!!!! ASTROS WIN!!!! ASTROS WIN!!!! ASTROS WIN!!!! ASTROS WIN!!!! ASTROS WIN!!!! ASTROS WIN!!!! ASTROS WIN!!!! ASTROS WIN!!!! ASTROS WIN!!!! ASTROS WIN!!!! ASTROS WIN!!!! ASTROS WIN!!!! ASTROS WIN!!!! ASTROS WIN!!!! ASTROS WIN!!!! YANKEES LOSE!!!

Who wrote that? A New Yorker? They won 4 games to 2. That's not narrow. Come on!!!

No bets with my DC friends now - ⚾️☹️

I do understand your salt though. After Matt Lauer, there’s very few narrow things left at 30 Rock.

YUCK. Go Nats!!

Let’s diminish what The Houston Astros did to beat the damn Yankees! Sucks, don’t it! Everything ain’t about New York! See how that works...!

Someone’s salty!!!! TakeItBack

Narrowly? This ain’t horseshoes, or hand grenades.

Hi NBC please investigate Wan Liu- one of your columnists

We started chad green...not exactly worth bragging you beat us lol.

A Yankees fan must be running this account.

Watch the lady directly behind home plate. Her reaction doesn't change throughout the entire play. 😂 She has no clue what's going on.

SHUT UP!! NARROWLY BEAT!!!!!! WINNING IS WINNING!!!! WOOHOO astros MLB

Yippee!!! 🎉😀👏👏👏👏

Bias much? Enjoy your salt.

'Narrowly' NBC is even bias in baseball.😂

Chapman standing on the mound smiling- losers -

Narrowly?...NBC must have wanted Yankees lmao!

Narrowly?🤷‍♀️

Narrowly? Altuve hit a freakin' walk-off homerun with a man on base. Score was 6-4. Narrowly might be a one-run win, but this is NOT that!!!! AstrosVSYankees Astros going to the WORLD SERIES...AGAIN!!!
