    They're dumb as hell if they pitch to Altuve.

    Walking the bases loaded to get to Correa, this has backfired on a lot of teams.

    Yeah, no way that happens. I suppose loaded for CC isn't a horrible alternative...need him to go for a hit and not settle for a SAC

    edit: wtf. Assume they're staying out of the zone

    Bad approach by Altuve...he was going for the game winner. We just needed a single.

    Can't believe they're pitching to Altuve, also can't believe he swung at the first pitch.

    Make me eat my words, Carlos!

    Yeah. That's the only thing with Altuve in those spots at times, tries to do too much.

    Another opportunity missed, with our 2 best hitters up as well. Couldn't have asked for a better chance

    Yup, it was asking too much to think the Astros could put up 3 runs.

    I hate home crowds, they think any contact is a home run when it's not even warning track power. Makes you believe sitting at home the ball was hit better than it was.
