That we haven’t scored against their bullpen is the biggest problem I’m seeing. That is supposed to be their weakness.
Javier will have to have balls of steel tomorrow. Philly is smelling blood now and they will throw everything at us. Our WS hopes fall on the shoulders of Javier. Our bats are dead and our hitters are in another mental funk so Javier needs to be on. He will get minimal run support. It’s a tall order but I have faith in him. The bats not so much but maybe they can squeak out 3 runs and it will be enough. Tall order for both hitting and pitching.
I wouldn't say superstition... just facts Does Vegas agree about superstitions? Stros were favorites even before today's game started
I know if we go down 3-1 we still have a chance technically. But only 5 teams in world series history have come from down 3-1 to win the W.S. So I will go out on a limb and say tomorrow is a must win or it's pretty much over.
There was literally nothing to cheer for the entire ****ing game... This team gave us absolutely nothing, nada. Dominated, from top to bottom. A disgraceful showing. I only hope they actually show up tomorrow with an ounce of dignity but I'm not holding my breath with how pathetic this offense has been.
This is an @ss kicking no doubt. I’m going to throw out some coaches’ cliches but tthey are true. It’s not always how you handle victory but how come back from defeat. You have to take every game one at a time. A goldfish is the happiest animal because it has the shortest memory. Be a goldfish.
Despite Lance having possibly the worst game in world series history, the Astros bullpen is still in good shape. Unfortunately, the Phillies didn't have to use any of their high leverage guys and is also in good shape.
Man that sucked. Why do they have to have these games every time in the World Series where they play like garbage? Choking away game one is going to end up costing them this series.
