    Smh. Bregman should be 2nd up in the lineup.

    Hinch is at best a questionable decision maker but this game is on the offense right now.

    What would have been nice would have been to keep your ace in the hole for Game 5. We were up a run...absolutely no need to make the move to Verlander.

    Yeah I was at the 18-inning game in person... but just pointing out Roy Oswalt wasn't unhittable either in relief.

    Bregman, Yuli, Gattis is 99% a no run inning

    McCann, Springer, Reddick to open against Kimbrel gives me no hope either.

    Ummm yea if they are calling a pitch that far inside a strike. The Astros hitters have no chance

    Not at all. I just think its crazy to say a series is over with game 5 being home and we destroyed them at MMP.

    We need Bregman to get on in the top of the 8th. Give Yuli a chance to drive someone in.

    Being a Houston fan feels like a dog chasing a car. I don't know what we'd ever do if we caught any success whatsoever.

    This makes no damn sense. Why wasn't the game over in the first inning yesterday and today when we had the lead if red sox can't win?

    Very, very frustrating game to watch; looks like they are coming back to Houston.

    Excluding Yuli, our 3-9 hitters have 1 hit combined between them through 7 innings. And Correa literally just got that lone hit in the 7th.
