    Great if it works, but it was a bad execution plus he’s a long ball threat.

    Jose Altuve, future HOFer, wasn’t up to bat in that movie

    Ok, and if you're gonna have the balls to try that in this situation, you better ****ing execute. 3 ABs have been **** so far.

    Well that would make sense. I didn't see Tuck going.

    It was high risk but I don’t hate it. Sometimes you have to take a risk and do something unexpected.

    what seems weird though was how Smoltz said he might do it. They tells me
    The Rangers might’ve been wise to it.

    Astros put only 10 pitches on Montgomery after getting two men on and no DPs. Astros just too aggressive

    It was almost certainly Tuve winging it

    Maybe Tucker scores. Pretty sure the IFs weren't expecting it nor playing in.

    Altuve needed just a decent bunt there.

    That movie also had the Catcher keep the ball fake out. You don't have to try it in swing game. The way Ol' Monty is rolling, Altuve probably grounds out anyways but at least try.

    Does Tucker have bad eyes. And if so, does he need better contacts?
