    I mean… if they layed off his curve that’s not even getting to the plate they would be fine.

    1 run isn't cutting it needless to say.

    They should try the Harper approach, just keep the bat on your shoulder.
    Only Alex has a good plan.

    This is why JV never gets run support. Stop swinging at the curve in the dirt.

    I honestly feel winning this game 1-0 would demoralize this Rangers team more than a blowout. But can't count on JV to shut them down the entire game

    Garcia is the key to this inning. Get him out

    For whatever reason they don't see the ball off this guy well. I know he has a really high release point. Maybe that's it.

    1-0 would be fine since 1-0 win = 3-2 series lead. But damn would it be anxiety ridden.
