    Wasting the leadoff single AGAIN. So infuriating.

    Maldonado couldn't swat a fly with a tennis racket... a complete joke.

    I think someone needs to work with Maldonado and tweak his stance and bat position that will makes his hands faster because his strikeouts are almost always because he’s late. The dudes big, we’ve seen him blast a few hangers and he is a great defender (normally)

    I was just about to say this. The ball is outside the box and it gets called a strike and no replay

    Their catcher framed that third strike so well too. Dropping the ball clearly outside the zone.

    Really don’t understand why McCann didn’t get the start. He has great numbers vs. Price. Ugh

    I really hate to be that guy, but it seems as though the Astros have many things working against them. Feels like a big FU by the league.

    Astros are just gonna have to accept the strike zone against them and start being aggressive
