    This game finally swayed me towards implementing robo umps. Home plate umpire has been AWFUL tonight for both sides.

    He is incredible, no doubt. In that one particular instance what would you call it not getting the guy home from 3rd less than two outs? Swinging at a curve in the dirt for strike three.

    Reddick jogging is beyond stupid.

    Stros "assumed" on that play instead going hard until the play actually developed.

    Pathetically stupid

    I really think those two we left on base last inning was the deciding moment

    How does what work? I’m proposing what they should do for their future moves. What do you suggest?

    And has multiple times this world series in the same situation. That 1st inning is the first time he has scored that runner.

    I rarely like the bunt and usually scoff when bunt guy shows up, but right there, it was an excellent time for a safety squeeze given Strasburg’s wipeout pitches are on tonight and we were in a situation where getting a run was paramount. You bunt the ball towards 2nd and you probably score a run.

    Had altuve made contact, it would have been a double play for sure. I'm with buck, a bunt would have been nice and unexpected.

    NEVER swing at an 0-2 pitch....don't professional baseball players know it's gonna be a ball about 99% of the time! Where's your head at Altuve!
