yep everyone was raving about this offense in the regular season but this offense really didn’t show up against some of the better teams. We still have a shot but we need to get Tanaka out
If Tanaka keeps hitting his spots for that low dipping slider, it's going to be a long night. 61 pitches for 5.1, and he's got these guys swinging at ghosts.
Before this game, I thought if the Astros win game one, they are going to win the series. Greinke is O.K., but the hitting has been horrible. They are being mowed down my Tanaka. Still a winnable game, but not looking good.
It's been bad the whole playoffs so far, as well as last years playoffs. Maybe Cora/Beltran were the special sauce? McCann was awesome too.
Am I the only guy who wants Tanaka's hat checked? What was he doing with the hat band, that then made his ball break about a foot downward at the plate?
