    Abreu-Montero-Pressly with each having a short leash, no more than one base runner allowed before getting pulled. This is a must win and Houston is 5 runs up with 9 outs to go.

    I mean it may be the last WS game he ever pitches. I hope he goes out with a bang.

    Astros think 5 runs is enough, not even grinding out ABs anymore.

    What will it take for the Stros to score a run after the 5?

    Hate how we aren't even trying, wtf are we in a hurry for? Why not see more pitches against their bullpen, we might have high leverage situations in future games against these same pitchers. It makes no sense to swing at first pitch here.

    Dusty has been failing to pull pitchers when they got into trouble all series. Now he is going to pull Javier before he has given up a single hit.
