I am betting against the bullpen shutting out the Angels the rest of the way. The Astros will have to score again.
And hopefully we keep the lead FOR GOOD, I always prefer the starters getting the win to the relievers. But a win is a win. I have a bad feeling if we see Osuna in the 9th.
Alex Rodriguez blaming the Astros beating the Dodgers Game 7 because of the 25 man roster? Alex Rodriguez whole career is cheating taking steroids, in the playoffs.
Honestly, if Cole wants more wins then he needs to go more than 5-6 innings. He is wasting pitches, and running up high pitch counts and hurting himself. He threw nearly 120 pitches in under 6 innings tonight. His pitch economy is his biggest problem.
I don't like where this is going at all... Astros need to step it up on offense. This is far from over.
Still, the 3 walks were really cool. Drawing a bases loaded walk is better than a GIDP. After the third walk I was really rooting for him to get a fourth (and maaaybe even a fifth if he got another PA).
