I wonder if Ortiz is grunting things under his breath like "How you like that, Cooper!" or "Now that's a strike, beeatch!" when throwing pitches today.
Whenever Pence strikes out, he's got that very tentative-looking swing, as if he's confused as to whether he should have taken that pitch. Or maybe he's all but conceded the at-bat. Just flailing at the off-speed away...
after 10-ish years, the stros finally get to be on the other side of the 2 automatic outs in the 8 and 9 holes.
