Drive his ass in
Finally a dink fell in for us.
Tanaka has some dirty stuff
Yuck... Josh
At least it moved George over.
Tuve got this.
There isn't much you can do on a pitch down/away like that other than try to drive it the other way.
Altuve homer. I'm calling it

Stop "calling it" it's not working!
This was called a Strike on Beltran
Called a ball for Castro
Balls for Judge
Called a ball for Castro
Balls for Judge
Nothing again. Except weak ass contact
Where is our hitting coach? They are seeing the pitch but everyone is chopping it.
I just don't get how 6-7 guys can be in a slump all at one time
Most of these are hittable pitches. Not sure why the bats are slumping so bad.

Yes he does, I have been impressed with the way their staff pitched this series.
Tanaka serving up crap. And we are eating up. Even when we work the count he doesn't give in and we end up swinging at his garbage.
Another zero on the board.
Another zero on the board.
Yeah I have zero confidence we can muster any runs

Yankees pitchers just absolutely owning us.

It's playoff baseball. Everything is magnified and the pressure is immense.
And when you are getting the corners and the up and down part of the plate, it's going to be easier to fool hitters. Dallas has to practically groove them and hope for unhittable movement on the pitch.

Yankees staff are pitching great, and while these pitches may be hit worthy, doesn't mean that it is going to get you a base hit.
Tanaka's pitches naturally generate a lot of GBs especially when you try and pull the ball...He's basically a RH version of Keuchel for them. Need to elevate on his pitches while he's still in the game. If I were Girardi I would bullpen this game after 5.
BABIP for both of these teams up to this point in the ALCS?
I feel like this is the beginning of yet another Houston sports letdown. I hope I'm wrong!
Really never believed we'd struggle THIS much at the plate. Everyone is playing tight and not relaxing and just playing our game. The Yankees are in our heads.
The bats have died. Everyone go out and find a slump buster immediately.
Going to the gym. If we start winning maybe I'll have a three hour workout.
Yankee hitters much more poised and patient at the plate right now.

Their staff is not "great"

Offense went off against Boston though

They have smaller strike zones and momentum.
