Don't run into an out. At least try to get the rundown to score a run.

He missed an easy walk to set up bases loaded for Yordan. Frustrating to say the least.

This may just be me, but Whitcomb has to stop advancing and force the 2B to either keep chasing him, or toss it to a base, which likely avoids a double play

Or if Tuve would lay off the outside in the other's batters box pitches.

I miss slugging Altuve. His .791 OPS is the worst of his career since his rookie year in 2013 (excludes shortened 2020 season) and his 97 Ks are already a career high with still nearly 40 games to go

Watching strikes and swinging at balls, over and over and over.

If he would be more selective of his pitches, his slugging would improve. Can't hit with power when you are hitting stuff 6 inches off the plate or above the strike zone.
