    If I see Diaz in at the plate again in this series I am going to lose it.

    So does Montero get out of this inning and away from the announcers jinx?

    I believe all the big hits he gave up were with the breaking ball.

    They could also forfeit their DH hitter and give the other team an automatic out and would make no difference...

    Yes I think he even said in the post game he was missing with his breaking balls

    Astros DH/LF

    Basically I'm counting either DH or the LF position if Alvarez was DH'ing.

    2-41
    0 Runs
    1 RBI

    1 of those hits was Hensley.

    Yet somehow some way Dusty was convinced Diaz was the right call tonight.

    Everybody not named Hensley

    1-40

    That's impossible.

    Designated Hitter: someone who specializes in hitting.

    Surprised to see Montero again with a 5 run lead. I wonder if we’ll see Stanek in the ninth.

    So do the Phillies just struggle against fastballs?

    Chill. We were just talking about the ads. Even though it was aimed for Pennsylvania folks people in houston were getting the ads.

    Instead of the pitching team holding up 4 fingers to walk the batter... the Astros could hold up 3 fingers to auto k Diaz
