    What sucks is that Altuve had to swing after the ump made two horrible calls

    Even Altuve can't lay off balls. Why would a pitcher give the Astros anything to hit? Piss poor!

    Honestly, how many times have we had runner on 3rd with 0 or 1 out and failed to bring him in? Way too many times. That's pathetic.

    Pinch hitting Valbuena with a runner in scoring position and one out reeks of poor managing.

    Conger and Valbuena trying to tie the game swinging at all balls.

    The batters failed that inning but Hinch over managed as well. Conger and Valbuena are close to garbage lately. Really don't understand Valbuena PH. I mean has he ever delivered in those situations this year? With runner on third and less then two out, Buena will either pop up or strike out. Marisnick had better chance of getting the run home there tbh.

    It's Hinch's way of rewarding a player for contributing. Carter will start.

    I bet we get a solo HR in this inning and lose 7-6. Just a feeling

    Someone needs to take the lineup card away from the manager. Seriously he is bad with lineups and substitutions.

    This guy throws over 93? Game is likely over then.

    Awful batting those final 2 innings.

    On a night they score 5 runs, pitching did no favors tonight.

    The Astros organization doesn't deserve this game... Pinch hitting Conger and Valbueba ... Unreal.

    All losses are frustrating but this was a bad loss. Bullpen and Hinch biggest culprits tonight.
