[Official] ALCS Rangers vs. Astros

It's the ALCS with the bases loaded, and you put the worst hitter in the history of professional baseball in there to bat.

 

It’s EXACTLY the scenario all of us feared and it became reality . Bases loaded, 2 outs, Maldy up to bat and Diaz rotting on the bench. I wanted him to succeed but computer says no

 

might as well have sent chas home

better chance of him making it home than maldonado not striking out

 

with maldy up just send him.

 

They should have just sent Chas. The chances of Chas scoring there weren't great, but they were almost certainly better than the chances of Maldy coming through in that situation.

 

Lean into the pitch at least.

 

All I can say is he struck out on a strike that he missed good at bat

 

We are getting closer every inning

 

I would be calling Dusty the greates manager ever and Maldy the new Mike Piazza

 

I would because Jordan Montgomery is having a day. If we had the lead, no, but trailing and a pitcher that has made Yordan strikeout 2x.

 

That was a gift to the Rangers.

 

The add 3 more LOB by Moldy.

 

Maldy d riders, you failed

 

Sure, but maybe the catcher pulls a Gary Sanchez or something.

 

These mofos don't swing and miss.

 

At first glance I read this as "...in prison"

It was better at first glance

 

1st Verlander K in the 5th

 

Bottom on the line up rangers are tough ABs

 

I love how Jung was going to pull an Eckstein and run down to First

 

Live or die with Maldy
