Honestly, the White Sox could have brought up Jose Abreu to pitch the last 2 innings and the Astros would have gotten themselves out.
More of the ... we have no idea what the strike zone is and Maldy pissed off Hallion so we gotta swing at everything
A pitiful effort at the plate...Yuli is as nonexistent at the plate as Maldy ! NOW...plunk Grandal here...not kidding !
I think Yuli was something like 3-21 and left tons on base against Tampa in his last playoff series, last year. He is 1-12 so far this years playoffs. I would like to see him get it going.
Would have actually gone Raley here… Stanek needs to be available for tomorrow, so hopefully not a ton of pitches. Javier did an above and beyond job.
I thought Yuli would be better than last years horrible Postseason but he's repeating the same thing again this year.
Don't know why Raley made the roster over James, Sox have ZERO left handed bats (some Switch-Hitters, but all righties)
Dusty stuck with L.Garcia too long, when you give up 3 walks and 68 pitches in just 2 innings, it is probaly shower time in a short series. LaRussa pulled Crease early, he only gave up 2 hits. 1 manager is a proven winner, 1 wants to be a proven winner.
I just looked it up. He was 3-21 vs Tampa and 5-44 for the entire playoffs last year. 1-12 so far this year. That’s 6-56. That’s putrid.
I’m sure when he gets his scorecard and sees what a terrible job he did he will have some serious self-reflection about it and realize Maldy was right.
