Looks like once again,  Fiers won’t get a chance to play in an Astros’ playoff game.

It's the fourth, guys.  Always the fourth!

So I walked away for a while to take care of something.  I said to myself, "Who knows, maybe we scored 5."

 

Just checked the score.  Boom.

His mom's gonna write an email to the coach.

[Tommy Nobis 905]

He had 4 hits going into this game for the series ...

Didn’t watch much of the first couple games. Guess that’s what I get for listening to the announcers. Thought I heard them say he was 0-12 unless they were referencing something else. I’m halfway working and listening in the background.

[HoustonFrog 368]

Lol Grossman

Side note - he hit like a 700 ft HR off me in HS

i think that's the stadium sound operator - they've been trying to use some of the home team's sound.  didn't hear the A's drums, which is good.

5 mins after Correa homers Greinke walks over to him and taps him on the shoulder...."Thanks"....and walks away.  Correa turns and looks at him and knows that it took everything in Zack to do that so he just gives a little nod and turns back around to watch the next batter.  Greinke goes back to the bench to sit next to Machete who had just finished his steroid banana...."Good banana?" Machete nods

[Tommy Nobis 905]

Take 2 pitches here

[clapclapclap 9000]

Hurricane Delta still hasn't made the turn to Louisiana.  Would you take a direct hit on Houston for a guaranteed WS ring?

I know Altuve is a good enough hitter to warrant a green light on a 3-0 count but he should taken at least 2 more pitches in that situation

[Scraps 13542]

back to moundgate

If you expect Altuve to take that lol

[Tommy Nobis 905]

I realize that. But you have a newb puckered up on the mound who threw him 3 straight balls.

[Gourmand 7774]

fair enough, if you are green lighting yourself on 3-0 you best not miss

2017 - Astros trade Laureano instead of putting him on the 40 man roster, as he was Rule 5 eligible.

Whoops. 

[Honeysucklerose 957]

Last time we pulled grienke early in the playoffs.......well, we all know

[TonyTexas 10482]

Dusty saving Javier for a possible game 5?

[WBT 20421]

Taylor coming in.

[clapclapclap 9000]

Greinke didn't pitch any better than Urquidy.  4 runs in less than 5 innings.

At least Urquidy didn't lazily and arrogantly tell them what pitch was coming.  Funny in the regular season when it doesn't matter much, infuriating in the playoffs.

Maybe but I wouldn't be surprised to see him to start the 6th.

I try not to venture in here, as I know I'm not welcome, but this just showed up in my twitter feed.  This can't be real, right?  Honestly, just asking.

 

[Scraps 13542]

he has done it probably 5 or more times this year
