Its a race to the bullpens. Unfortunately 73 pitches for Skubal and 86 for Brown. We are an inning behind.
Altuve is 35. He might fade down the stretch after playing his heart out almost every game the last 4.5 months.
Why do we keep swinging at pitches out of the zone making his job easier. When he gets behind in the count we are swinging at pitches almost in the dirt at times. I know he's a great pitcher but no need to make it easy for him.
When they were reviewing the call. I had no hope for them to do the right thing. But to come back with "confirmed"? I couldn't even come close to predicting that.
