Hard to do anything when they call that pitch 6" inside a strike...utter bull sheet!

Story of the series. Each pitcher gets their own zone.

This strike zone is baffling. I don't get as mad as most about that sort of thing... all I ask is that it stays the same.

I used to be against the idea, but this series has convinced me that it is a good idea to automate the ball and strike calls. Let the ump deal with everything else, but we need to take the human factor out of the calling of balls and strikes, because these guys have been terrible at it this series.

Altuve hasn't done anything meaningful this whole series. That ends in a few minutes. Springer Dinger followed by Altuve blast. Cole man up for two innings and we win in the 11th.

Or the stupid sidewinder gives up 3 more and we're done.

Since the kids are in sports we talked about this.

This is what 98% game time performance looks like. You don't play hard. You don't want to win. You don't want to give it everything....you squander amazing opportunities and ruin the efforts of your team.

I swear, Altuve will swing at anything except a pitch right down the middle. No idea what he is thinking sometimes...

Just brutal. 0-fer at home in the WS. All that work down the drain.

I could've taken losing in 2017 since dodgers were better team that year. Didn't mind losing to 108 win red Sox team last year.

This is a complete gut punch. Very tough to take. If 2-1 pitch to Soto that was clear strike was actually called a strike maybe greinke continues cruising. But at 3-1 you can't give Soto a fat one and the rest is history.

He wasnt the only one.

Our hitting this series was garbage.

Even losing Cole the Astros will be clear favorite to win west next year. Just need to win division every year and keep churning out opportunities. And hope to get hot in playoffs.

This was a gut punch.

It's hard to win the WS.

Anyways. After Verlander and Cole got beat at home to start not sure how surprised everyone should be.

If anything, some of the umps strike zones increases the need for robots. Think it worked both ways.

Man that hurt, still glad I got to go to a ws in person. Tough to get to, tough to win. Can't wait till joto gets his ribs broke next year.
