Hate to be that guy. But what the hell did Cora do in Boston? Not screw up what was already there? They are making it seem like he brought this team back from the cellar.

Smart move. Walk the man with 1 out and go for the double play. Don't want to risk getting to 2 outs.
Brilliant!

When is the last time we had a 3 up 3 down inning? Cleveland?
Indians ?

You can't give up 8 runs and expect to win. That's the bottom line
World Series Game 5.
Now kindly STFU
Thats one game out of how many other examples?
If we lose this game, we need solid outings from Verlander and Cole. Get it to game seven and anything can happen.
Only the stupid@sses that don't have a CLUE how important base runners are when trailing by multiple runs late in a game.jg07 said:how many on here would be giving Kemp **** for not going to second if he stayed at first?AGHouston11 said:AustinAg2K said:
I don't mind the Kemp play. He was trying to make things happen. It's better than sitting there with the bat on your shoulder.
It was a perfect throw too

This... our relievers just aren't getting it done
6 runs should win every game .. giving up the runs we are giving up isn't getting it done

And if I had told you before game 5 that the Dodgers would score 12 runs ... you probably wouldn't have expected to win either. More often than not, if a team scores 8 runs in a playoff game, they'll win. Of course there are exceptions
We still have a shot in this one, and we have the bats to do it. I'm just saying giving up 8 runs isn't usually a recipe for success

Cora had to remind them who was on the mound. They could leave bats in the dugout. Sipp not anywhere near the zone most of the time
Sipp is giving up runs

Thought you were giving up. My bad. I agree with you.
Going to have to get a minimum of 7 from each I think.
Good god... make them EARN it at least.
Hinch is going to sit here and watch Sipp walk two batters
so ****in long a game

Producer: "hey guys, say something nice about the Astros too. Laying it on a little thick!"
Nah, not at all. They haven't played great and deserve criticism, but the umpires blowing that call in the first definitely set the tone.

At what point did putting in Sipp seem like a good idea?
Seriously. Can we please keep this thing to 2 runs to have a shot at this game?
Every inning
Why waste McHugh here? Why Hinch? Wtf are you doing this series dude
Our bullpen is straight ****
Sipp bein sipp. Cool.
Bullpen is fooling no one.
I fully expect 2 runs to score, now.

Nope never give up until the final out or the clock hits 0:00 (UCLA taught me that last year and the UNI March madness comeback)
I'll be there loud and proud tomorrow night.
Everyone in the left field boxes standing up and looking at something in the crowd.
7nine
We have a WHIP of 1.7 in the last 3 games
Verlander is pitching a complete game tomorrow. Use everyone tonight.txag614 said:

When Jv gets tired tomorrow, we're just going to need him to borrow Sipp's glove and throw LH. We've got nothing left.
33 minutes from longest 9 inning game ever

We can't use our best long relief guy when we actually need him. Duhhhh ... it's against the rules
Heading to bed..
Hope I wake up to a myrical in the morning!
Well same result, serve up center cut on 3-1. Guess it's good he didn't do more with that pitch than a single.heavens11 said:

So, Hinch is going to bring in a reliever now with runners in scoring position instead of yanking Sipp after the walk... such a frustrating game
