    Wasn't a bad strategy with the shift. No one was on that side. It just didn't get closer to the line.

    Your sports allegiances bother me more than Giles pitching.

    You try to steal the game tomorrow from Kershaw, but there's always Verlander against Hill for game 6 in LA. This series definitely isn't over.

    So last night Hinch gets Harris up and throwing in the pen in the 9th. NOT GILES!!

    That tells me everything I need to know about how much confidence he has in Giles.

    SO WHY IN THE F$)K HE PUTS THE BALL IN HIS HANDS TONIGHT IS JUST FLAT OUT UNACCEPTABLE!!!!

    Again Giles is who he is (not someone you want out here).

    Me thinks AJ just F'ed this up!!

    Yea but if you're looking at the series win probability meter...it went from leaning toward the Astros about a 1/4 of the way...to leaning toward the Dodgers about half way.

    Giles was CRAP...

    But so was the OFFENSE -- One damn run. No-hit first half of the game.

    Come On, MAN !!!!

    No one expected a sweep at Home and this makes it interesting.

    They don’t have a closer and this proves it.

    But they are still in the series tied 2 to 2

    Going to go 7 and it will be a wild ride.

    Brewer hit clutch shots to beat the Clippers in a game 6 on the road. Not ever close to a good analogy.

    From here on out, Hinch, don’t use your bullpen used instead Peacock, Mchugh.

    No ****?

    You don't think Ken Giles gets another save chance?

    If Giles pitches again for the Astros in 2017, then something is really wrong and we are losing by a half dozen runs.

    Everyone knows who and what Ken Giles is.

    We don’t want interesting. We want boring Astros baseball from June.

    Nope sealclubber would beg to differ with you calling Giles a "weak loser".
