    All season long, this team just can not get the big hit. All season long.

    It's like their constipated with RISP.

    They were showing on the rangers broadcast that those were 2seamers that started outside and tailed back in with Springer protecting with 2 strikes. Springer did good to foul those off. It was a good ab but nothing came from it.

    Shame with the Springer at-bat. It was a good at-bat; he just didn't win it. In his previous at-bats, he definitely was overswinging trying to make something happen, as he's wont to do. He definitely just missed on some pitches here, but it was a better at-bat.

    I think Jake's power is actually to right-center field. I've seen rope a lot of balls right there. Maybe he needs to adjust a little bit to straight-up play to that in future at-bats.

    Big gamble subbing Brantley for Straw with 2 outs, tied game.

    You do not take one of your best hitters out in the 9th inning of a tie game (Brantley) with 2 outs.

    The Astros are playing like a bunch of chumps, top to bottom.
