There isn't much you can do on a pitch down/away like that other than try to drive it the other way.

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.

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.

They have smaller strike zones and momentum.
