Three weeks until Election Day. Latest poll shows Gov. Cuomo with a commanding 58 percent to 35 percent lead over Marc Molinaro. Republican challenger needs a lift only a live debate would offer, but Cuomo has chosen to pass, choosing instead to tell New Yorkers to make sure they get their flu shots. C’mon, quit duckin’, Governor. What have you got to lose? And besides, flu vaccines were “never that great.”… And remember, next time you’re sitting in the outfield and a home run is screaming towards you just let it hit you. Unless of course your name is Jeffrey Maier.

Closing time for the Brewers? I think not. Milwaukee comes home needing to win Games 6 and 7. Hyun-Jin Ryu was shaky earlier in the series for the Dodgers, allowing two runs in four innings. The Brewers pulled Wade Miley after one batter in Game 5. He will go a bit longer Friday, trying to force Game 7.

And then there were three. Astros are going home. Lost to the Sox 4-1. David Price outpitching Justin Verlander, who gave up a three-run homer to Rafael Devers. Heavy hit leaves us at -1,065 gedmans.
