    This is a serious question and not trying to be an ass. Did you play competitive baseball?

    It’s not like this is little league where the coach makes the kids run laps for errors they make. I think you vastly overestimate what a manager does once you get to any serious level.

    looking at the replay, the fans were trying to reach out and grab the ball. SMH

    home fans need to learn about the rules when reaching out. had they touch the ball, that would just be a double.

    Not much going our way on the out of town scoreboard so this was a much needed victory.

    how is this on Espada? I genuinely need a clear explanation. you want espada to sit Pena? ok, then play who?

    then you gon' complain about the lineup and how there's no offense.

    He’s not making Pena stay after the game and run poles so he’s allowing this behavior to happen!

    I think they need to hand out some pamphlet to all fans sitting in the Crawford boxes. Dumbass fans trying to sabotage the team.

    the only questionable move was PH Dubon with Jon.

    although Jon did connect on one and if this was 2019, the ball would have been gone.

    at least he didn't GiDP. *shrug*

    Dubon looks like a natural playing infield. idk why astros keep playing him in the OF.
