HOUSTON (AP) Home runs kept flying over the wall at Minute Maid Park Authentic Tommy Hunter Jersey , on line drives up toward the train tracks, on fly balls that just dropped over the fence.

Seven more were hit in Game 5, raising the total to a World Series record 22 – with two possible more games to play. Twenty-five runs were scored in a game started by the Dodgers’ Clayton Kershaw and the Astros’ Dallas Keuchel, Cy Young Award winners regarded as among baseball’s best.

After a season when sluggers outpaced even their steroid-era predecessors for home runs, some are convinced that something is amiss with the baseballs.

”The main complaint is that the balls seem a little bit different in the postseason, and even from the postseason to the World Series balls,” Justin Verlander said.

A record eight home runs were hit in Game 2 Josh Jackson Jersey Elite , including five in extra innings, and Game 5’s seven long balls would have tied the old mark. The 13-12, 10-inning Astros’ win Sunday night was the second-highest scoring game in Series history.

Keuchel was quoted as saying after Game 2: ”Obviously, the balls are juiced.”

Speculation that something has changed includes a study claiming to have found differences in the size and seam height of balls since the 2015 All-Star break.

Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred insists nothing nefarious is going on.

”I’m absolutely confident that the balls that we’re using are within our established specifications,” he said Friday.

WASHINGTON (AP) – Dave Martinez will get a chance to try to do what no Washington Nationals manager has accomplished: win a postseason series with the club.

OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) – Golden State star Draymond Green is taking issue with being fined $25,000 for a skirmish with Washington’s Bradley Beal, saying he was trying to protect himself from Beal and players from the Wizards’ bench.

On Sunday, the NBA fined Green and Beal for fighting during a game Friday night and also suspended Washington guard Carrick Felix and forward Markieff Morris one game apiece for leaving the bench area during the scuffle.

SEATTLE (AP) – All but 10 members of the Houston Texans took a knee during the national anthem Sunday Authentic Kenny Lofton Jersey , as the vast majority of the team protested the owner’s ”inmates running the prison” comment.

The Texans had indicated there would be some type of protest following the comments by owner Bob McNair. It came prior to the Texans’ wild 41-38 loss to the Seattle Seahawks.

”I’m never going to force anyone to do anything they don’t feel comfortable with. I think we all felt the same way on Friday,” said Houston left tackle Duane Brown. ”As far as the demonstration went, some people didn’t feel quite comfortable (kneeling) and some people did, but we all supported each other. That was what was important. I don’t think that anyone looks at anyone differently for what they stood for or didn’t stand for.”

All of the team’s black players appeared to take a knee. At least one white player – Ben Heeney – also knelt.

PHILADELPHIA (AP) – Philadelphia Eagles safety Malcolm Jenkins, one of the founders of The Players Coalition, said the next proposed meeting between the owners and players to discuss social justice initiatives has been canceled.

”The league didn’t accept our invitation,” Jenkins said Sunday.
