    There's TWO outs, George.

    Remember the Third Base theory, please.

    Stros generally suck winning close games.

    Can they squeeke one ?

    Or maybe '17 late-inning again like Monday.

    If pitchers would just stop giving the A's batters free passes and make them string some hits together, they would start to regress pretty quickly

    Scary body language from Peacock. I'd pull him.

    Better than waiting after a grand slam to take peacock out. He should have gotten one of those balls. Ump has been erratic

    There’s no way he should have been in the game after 3 straight walks. Not with the other guys we have available. That’s just dumb.

    Only a .5 game lead, Thanks Hinch not putting in Pressly or Rondon in the 7th, not like this game matters right Hinch. Hey let's try Sipp, just to Sipp a loss

    Hinch is such a master handler of the pitching staff. :confused:

    Supreme confidence in his players even if they have dog feces control. So far ahead of most managers.

    How in the actual ***K do you leave Peacock in for that long.. what a ****ing joke. Also, you're a pitcher in the MAJOR LEAGUES, just throw strikes if you are struggling and have walked 2 in a row...
