Mancini has his eyes open, yes? That's gotta be his last AB this year. Jesus.

May as well let the pitchers hit with DH production like this.

Um...altuve is due up 3rd next inning


He's going to swing as hard as possible three times. Maybe he'll get lucky

Pitching can only take us so far. The big bats have to get going if we want to win this series.

Mancini swings at everything

No plate discipline at all

Hensley could do better just by not swinging

Why do we keep using him as our DH? Why not Diaz?


I would rather have Yanier Diaz there than Mancini.

It took us to an extra inning 1 run win vs. Seattle. Keep hanging tough. Our guys will prevail!

Routine ground ball.
Yep, don't seem to have much trouble with the routine play. Only on better than average play by them and that was helped by a slow baserunner.


I get it but the way everyone was talking it sounded like these dudes couldn't be counted on to always make the routine play

At this point just get one of us to stand in the box for Mancini. You'll get the same production but for less money

Does Mancini even give a single Fu**?


He shouldn't see another AB the rest of the series. That looked like a pitcher up there just hacking.
I agree buddy

I am surprised Diaz didn't get a shot there. Vazquez could PH for Maldy.

If I remember right, Mancini's batting splits with the Orioles were much better when he fielded vs. playing DH. Sure seems to be the case this postseason unfortunately.

Our DH is 2-30 in the playoffs. That's brutal.
