    I reckon he was trying to move the eye level, but in retrospect, why oh why. BIg mistake.

    Let's score this inning.

    Get those runs right back... and then some.

    I wish our suddenly anemic lineup would wake the hell up. Exactly one hard hit ball tonight.

    You sure? I don't know, but I know he got Turner out on pitches up in the zone in each of the previous ABs. And Turner looked like he was catching up to that in the last one. So it wouldn't surprise me if he was trying to go up there again...I just think it was dumb.

    Should stay away from him with his upper cut swing. Outside half would typically ground that type of guy out.

    Time for the #1 offense to roll like a #1 offense

    This is the inning to do it with middle of the order coming up. Need to get this thing back to even.

    Im assuming keuchel just missed his spot by a mile bc there was ZERO reason not to go down and away again in that situation. That was a meatball up and inside. Goddamnit.

    Where is the offense on the road? I thought the Astros were better on the road.

    Keuchel hasn't pitched well.

    Our all-time level offense needs to score more.

    He tried to go up and in. He can't miss up there near the plate.

    He lives down. He can miss down.

    It was 1-2, with 2 outs.

    That is what I'm pondering.

    Lmao for real. He didnt aim it there on purpoae. But i do think they have a point that he shoulda tries to get him swinging at a very far outside off the plate ball on a 1-2 count

    Mental mistakes happen

    Think we can get to Jansen, so a run here would set up well. But if Kershaw remains on the mound it don’t look good.
