    Was hoping Alutve not scoring on that double wouldn't come back to bite. He should have been able to score there. Now have to hope Pressly can keep it tied.....

    How many times have the Astros had RISP with no outs or a man on third with 1 out and can't score the runner this season? It boggles my mind how non-clutch they are. They use to be a 2 out hitting machine and now rely on HRs to hopefully fuel them. This team deserves every thing they don't get.

    Altuve is such a bad baserunner it’s comical. Has been his entire career.

    Alejandro Bregman had the October talk last night about sitting home, I think the Orioles shoved it back to his mouth.

    Diaz, the much better hitter, should’ve been hitting there.

    Abreu shouldn't have swung on those 2 high fastballs. Especially the first one on a 3-1 count. Ump might've called a ball there which would led to a bases loaded walk.

    Nah, I saw the replay. Altuve would've been out easily had he tried to score.

    That being said, that was pathetic to only come out of that inning with a single run.

    Wtf was that? Pettis being too conservative all of a sudden when runs are hard to come by.
