We are going to get to their pitchers tonight. It is going to happen. Still plenty of time.

Of course an Aggie would come in and destroy our dreams in game 5

I mean, does it get any more miserable than that?


Meanwhile an Aggie yesterday was influential to our loss

Was really hoping we'd be tied before Minter came in. He'll shorten this game 2 innings at least


It's going to take Correa, Yuli, and Bregman to make their lefties pay. They've gotta do it next inning.

Does Brantley do anything other than hit his bat against his shoulder?

YOU SUCK

Yeah, he's the wrong batter to call out for lack of offense in this series.

Astroball now means popping it up all the time
The ump caused that


Nah. I think it effected Altuve, but Altuve is a major league hitter who can lay off that.


When the first pitch at your eyes is called a strike you now have to protect that

Minter threw a meat ball straight down the middle for strike 2 and Brantley just started at it. What a disappointment

Yup. Got to punish a lefty at some point.

Astros can't touch Minter.


He's been really freaking good. Our righties also haven't been giving him enough trouble.

Gotta break through their bullpen.

Nice professional strike out. Just when we needed it most.


Reminds me of Space Jam.

"Hey Mike, that strike out. That was a good looking strike out."

Astros have displayed a shocking lack of power in the postseason. I think they were out-homered by the Red Sox and are being destroyed in that category by the Braves.

Where has the pop gone? Are they using two sets of baseballs?!

We have touched any of their left handed relievers.

Can Greinke teach our hitters his approach? Just take what the pitcher gives you and make contact. Stop trying to swing for the fences

That second pitch was higher. If the ump calls it again, so be it. It was 1 strike, you're not protecting anything 0-1.

So…we throw Odo for a game 6 if we make it?

The umps are homers. Responding to bad calls like a little leaguer is a bigger problem.

Astros don't bunt, or go the other way.

I dunno why we don't throw him tonight

I mean either way we are going to need Odo to come through to win it all

This just ****s with our rotation

I know it's win or done but I would have gone with Odo here. Someone has to go Tuesday.

This ref must have cataracts

Bunch of old white guy refs

And color is relevant how?
No it's fine, white people are the only folks you are still allowed to be hateful towards.

If that pitch is pitched to Correa, it's over the fence or at least to right field with power.

Sometime the other pitcher is trying to take you out of your approach…

Probably Odo for 3 or 4 and Garcia for 2 then the BP, but I'd rather pitch Urquidy for Game 6.

The crowd are morons. Booing every close pitch and every throw over to first. What do you expect from people who weren't baseball fans 6 months ago??

There is no game 6 if you don't win tonight. Throw your best tonight. Don't go down saving bullets.
