    I mean the pitch sequence to Bellinger was kind of meh. No changes in eye level or speeds.

    Doval was due for a bad outing. He’s simply too young for this moment.

    Go Astros, go Dodgers, then go Braves. That’s our path to WS home field advantage.

    I honestly don't want to play LA in the World Series because we know what the narrative is going to be all series long. Sigh.

    His first swinging strike was on a hanging slider, you don't get away with that pitch twice.

    Just a couple of pitches too late, here comes the manager.

    Why did Doval decide to just not ever throw a FB to Bellinger? All breaking balls, and he finally hit one

    Suicide B-line for the ball right here would be hilarious. Baseball would have to change the rules... Immediately.

    Decided to bunt. Hopefully this comes back to haunt them.

    I don’t want to play LA because they have way more talent than we do especially pitching wise.

    9 of 10 pitches he threw to Lux and Bellinger were breaking balls.

    No matter who the Astros play, that will be a story.
