The Astros are amazing, but I don't hear enough about how much performance they get out of their budget. Can we compare, I dunno, our total dollars spent per WAR? And then compare that against other teams?

When I saw Yordan hit that home run over the batter's eye, I was actually in shock. I'm not sure I ever saw someone hit a ball over that batter's eye (I mean, it's taller than the frickin' Green Monster, and it's over 400 feet away). Sparky and Ford both said, during the excitement of the moment, that they didn't remember anyone hitting a ball up there, but I'm curious if anyone remembers a ball going that far to that part of the stadium.

That'd be a hell of thing, to hit one of the most impressive home runs in that stadium just when it mattered most.
