Hinch did everything right tonight. Took out Verlander when he was clearly not getting it done. Put pinch runner for Gattis. Took gamble on Gregorson and Liriano being down

Bats lost the game tonight. And wrong timing of batting order as well. McCann being a lead off runner in the 4th, and the following double could have scored a quicker runner. Bases loaded with Bergman AB. Ninth inning at bottom of order.

We'll get em tomorrow

I think another thing we've overlooked this series is the lack of left-handed ABs for Marwin. With the exception of his double tonight, he hasn't done a while lot from the right side of the plate.

Also, again, the Astros seem to be weaker against left-handed pitching.

True

Altuve and Correa and their 0-8 didn't help either.

And to those asking for Reddick to sit...It's not just one person. It's a team sport and it's cliche but you win and lose as a team. Benching Reddick won't help Altuve, Correa, and Marwin get base hits.

They all have to step up when it's their turn.

This is one of the best played World Series of all time. There are 2 teams that refuse to lose. Most other Series you would never see a team hit one of the most unhittable relievers ever, not once but twice to win games. The other team would usually lose it at that point but the Dodgers have stayed in it and recovered to blow our bullpen too shreds. No lead is safe. 3 Cy young award winners have been hit well enough to not be a factor and the bullpen of both teams is in tatters. It sucks we didn't win tonight but this is are two teams that won 100 games. I have faith in this team. They would already be drenched in champagne most years but this is a really good LA team. One more game. Let's go

The message I would have to the team would be simple. Rewind to spring training nearly 8 months ago. If I would have told that team they would be playing in game 7 of the World Series in Novemeber to win the whole damn thing would you take that?

You take that opportunity all day long. This is a 1 game series.

Everything that's happded over the last 8 months and in this series is in the past. The only thing we need to focus on our job in front of us and take this OPPORTUNITY that has been placed in front of us.

Game 7 is more mental than physical

Astros fan complaining about NL rules is mind boggling.
I'll freely admit I thought AL rules were dumb as hell and unnatural growing up

I've since grown up and seen the light.

Forcing a professional player to attempt something he can't realistically practice for is stupid

Imagine if the NFL randomly selected a player on the roster to kick Field Goals
Bob Gibson, one of the greatest pitchers of all time, had 24 home runs in the regular season, and 2 in the World Series.
That's Bob Puukceeng Gibson...

Cool that's over a 17 year career. Something a DH could accomplish in 1 season

Listen. Get rid of the woe is me bull***** Get rid of the "the moment is too big" bull***** We are entering game 7 of the ****ing World Series. I've been a negative mofo in this thread a lot, but now is not the fkn time. We have a SECOND chance tomorrow to make history and fulfill many of our dreams, mine included, of winning a ****ing World Series.

GTFO with the negativity, GTFO with the woe is me shlt. Gear up and get ****in ready for game 7 of the best game in the world.

We may not come out on top, but God I hope we do. If so, it will be one of the greatest moments of my life and many of yours. If you can't hack it, please stay off this thread.

I'm gonna be here, and I think we will win the whole ****in thing tomorrow. In game 7 of the world ****ing Series.
That's what I'm ****ing talking 'bout!!!!

And that brings us back to Reddick, doesn't it. If he doesn't have a little league AB, then what Verlander does doesn't matter.

Or maybe, just maybe, pitchers could practice hitting. Strange concept I know.

I used to be an all football kinda guy. Now, especially with this kneeling bull **** in the NFL, I am watching baseball a lot more than football. In fact MLB >>>>>> NFL. I do still love college football, but NFL is about dead to me.

I think it was the fact that they got his motor running in the 6/7th, then he didn't go in, and he had to throw some so he could sleep tonight after being named starter for game 7.

Ok I just saw the last strike on Beltran. Yes I was peeing during it real time. That ball was literally in his eyes. I can count on less than one hand the times I've seen that in an MLB game.

I love what you bring to the table Beltran, but it's not at the plate.

No $#|+, Saturday night I didn't even think about the Ags until the 4th inning. By then it was over.

So are we sticking to ONLY rally Kate tomorrow? And does it begin in the first? Do we start with Astros Kate then slowly take clothes off as each inning passes? Important questions here.

And **** the bullshlt about your teams being cursed. They aren't cursed, they just haven't been good enough. this team is ****ing good enough and they get another chance tomorrow in GAME 7 IF THE WORLD SERIES to make my and many of your dreams come true.

This team did not "choke." This team did not underperform. This team has reached the apex of competitive sports.

Baseball is the only game in existence without a time limit to it. There's no running out the clock, kneeling the ball, or calling timeouts.

You throw the ball over the fkn plate and hope the guy standing 60 feet and 6 inches away doesn't hit it and crush your dreams. Equal chance for everyone.

WE HAVE THAT ****ING CHANCE TOMORROW.


I can't blue star this enough.

Let them try. I think we can hit him especially if he's not fresh, which he won't be 100%.

Let's just plate 7 tomorrow in the first and take care of business.

No, realistically - hopefully this loss will help them loosen up and play to keep the train moving rather than hit it over the fence. Just put the ball in play and let whatever happen happen.

Altuve and Correa cannot go 0-8 tomorrow. They cannot. They need to focus on shooting the ball the other way.
