We are the worst base running team.

CC doesn't have 0 Career walk off hrs... that's a BS stat. I was at the yankee ALCS game for his walkoff

That was a frustrating loss.

Wasted all those guys on base in the 1st and 2nd.

Much like the farce of not covering third or home several days ago, this is yet another example of poor coaching. Just bad.

Angels had no business winning that game.

Yuli ran into the final out, getting tagged going to third

Yuli is almost 37 years old. He knows better.

That's not coaching, that's just a brain fart.

Yuli in his head saying run all out at contact not expecting a chopper to third.

ML players shouldn't need to be coached to not run into the last out of the game at 3B.

No way around it, that's a bad loss and another one that got away. Can't believe we aren't at least tied for the division lead. Bullpen and management continue to kill us

If Yuli was going on contact, it's understandable. There were two out and we needed the run. That's the only way that makes sense.

That loss was mainly due to the fact we did so poorly with RISP. Ducks were on the pond... repeatedly.

Was wanting them to pinch run for him. Someone faster wouldn't have been wound up that tight ready to run,

Offense going on ice for that losing streak while we did have some decent pitching. They deserve criticism too.

At the end of the day, just win the series and we're all good.

I'm 100% confident that was intended to be a regular season only stat. He just had a walk off HR vs TB in the ALCS last year that was pretty epic.

crazy game.

Fletcher, Ohtani, and Trout were a combined 0 for 13.

Altuve, Brantley, and Bregman combined to reach base 8 times...and combined to score 1 run

one thing I've really noticed so far this season at Minute Maid Park...(where the Astros are 9-9)

opposing teams are giving the Astros' right-handed hitters the opposite field singles and doubles. And the likes of Bregman, Yuli, Correa have a ton of opposite field hits. And that's good.

but the opponents are faring fairly well with the "trade-off" --- I'll give you the opposite field hits to avoid the gas pump or Crawford box home runs. And we saw the Angels pull out a win tonight with that strategy

We just can't see to distance ourselves from the .500 mark

Kind of an odd thing. Our last 5 games, the losing team has scored exactly 4 runs in each of them.

Who stepped up and started our winning ways in TB after losing the get-away game in Seattle? Who went toe to toe with Cole at Yankee and ended the 3 game streak? That's right. Batman. He's gonna get us back on track tonight.



While on McCullers, can we all agree he has to figure out his walks. 13% BB% ain't gonna cut it. But at least it's not 22.6% like Ohtani. We better be taking some pitches tonight.

That's bad coaching if you are in high school. At some point you have to stop demonizing Dusty Baker for every mistake the players make.

Last night was one of those games where after the 2nd inning you knew you let them off the hook big time. Hopefully come playoff time we are not looking back at this game as the one game that either kept us out or from home field

Unless it's poor pitching performances by the reliever he puts in. Then it's his fault 100%. If they pitch well, remember he doesn't get any credit for the move. Rules of the board.

This is where we need to adjust our approach and go station-to-station to manufacture runs instead of relying on the big bomb to put up crooked numbers.
