Very first question I had. Maybe MLB doesn't want fans to keep complaining about how awful their umps have been in the playoffs.
I honestly don't care who wins the NLCS. But in the event the Astros do make the World Series, I'm rooting for this thing to go 7 and exhaust both...
It's getting closer to a 1a/1b situation. But they're in a class of their own for sure. I think Hakeem might have an edge just in terms of his...
We've been asking Dusty all season to show emotion, and he finally did in a huge moment. You have to think his outburst helped fuel some of that fire.
Un. ****ing. Real. Altuve is the greatest Astro of all time. Period.
I have no words for how poor an umpire performance this has been across the board today. The Astros won't lose this game because of it. They've...
Maybe that hit batter will motivate Houston the way Neris' strikeout in the Mariners series did. We need something to get us going at this point.
You can't put it all on the ump, but it's completely inexcusable to me that in a game this big, we can't have a system that allows us to...
Past tense already? C'mon man, don't give up hope yet.
Surprised Neris got another inning given how he's performed lately, but if he gets another out, I'll give Dusty credit.
He should have had Neris going after the single if he wasn't already. Not saying he necessarily should have had someone going at the start, but...
In that inning specifically, dude. Obviously he was doing great prior to the 6th, but those two base hits that inning were mashed.
You have nine outs here and you're not pinch hitting Maldy?
Both deserve blame. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see JV was getting rocked out there. And clearly JV unperformed this inning. It wasn't...
I thought he was pretty great for 5 1/3. Just a total meltdown that inning. I put blame on Dusty for leaving him in there when you could tell...
Should have pulled him there, honestly. Once JV is getting hit that hard that consistently, it's just a matter of time before someone homers.
Ugh. I hate this. It's moments like this I wish JV got more double plays.
JV, I know that's not the inning you were looking for, but it's better than nothing. Go keep that lead.
My wife said last night that she thought their whole team looked like white supremacists. I don't disagree.
Hated that. Altuve's made great contact all series and you're going to lay down a bunt in that situation? What a wasted opportunity. JV's gonna...
