    Ironically trying to bunt ****ed up the inning. AJ should play this like he has all season. Quit bunting, especially in the second inning.

    That was a good pitch to swing on 3-0 so no issue there.

    I'm not a big superstitious guy, but the Astros haven't lost in the WS while I listened to the radio guys with the TV muted. Doing my part.

    The jack was nice, but that should have been a much bigger inning..

    My sister in law carved this Yuli Lantern tonight. She claims to be a Braves fan, but doesn't really follow baseball and was being facetious.

    I'm gonna use it as my new Yuli meme.

    All Hard hit balls. Chirinos should have swung instead of bunting.

    He's got a little extra "old-man-tone"on his pitch-grunt!!


    ***- stupid chirinos "bunt"

    And unfortunately Springer's hit was 5 inches too long

    Especially when Chirinos has 2 Homer's. At most he could have had a sac fly. Also Scherzer seems hittable, would have taken my chances at Chirinos hitting or striking out/hitting a double play. Also Buck Martinez said for a player who doesn't bunt often, bunting off Scherzer would be hard.

    That's the theme of the games that we lost in this series. Not a good sign early. There's no reason we should have bailed Sherzer out for his shakey first inning.
