Great fucking send.  Aggressivnession.  I likes it.

[UTexasFight 9288]

That’s a timely double steal

 

[Gourmand 7761]

awesome baserunning call

 

[TexArcher 36905]

Pour it on now, fellas.

[henrygandorf 28619]

holy shit.

[deadshank 24644]

The view from left field revealed he never fully secured the ball.

That dude can lay tread.

[cabowabo 4381]

Siri is toast here. 

[oh_snap 692]

Passan gonna write another stupid article about that Albies error. 

[Dutchrudder 10973]

I would imagine they pitch outside to Siri and walk him, then take on Maldonado. 

[Wishbone 4716]

Just get it in play.

[Gourmand 7761]

Cmon my son.  

[Guadaloopy 10757]

See, Siri, on this team we do the contact thing.  

[Wulaw Horn 18917]

Little luck box with the nubber earlier. Just like his 79 exit velocity rbi in Fenway. Will take another here.

I feel you are correct.

[UTexasFight 9288]

Maybe Tucker steals home if Siri doesn’t get the job done

if that means Altuve is walking past him with another trophy in his arms, I will not only allow it I'll happily read it.

[cabowabo 4381]

Terrible AB there Siri. 

[Mo Horn 8680]

That's a rookie at bat 

[Fudge Nuggets 18825]

Here comes the offensive black hole.  Well, good to get one run out of it.

[UTexasFight 9288]

Well, Castro time imo

Better be PH for Maldonado.

just a little bit ra......

[HoustonFrog 368]

Fucking injuries having to play Siri. So bad

[Wulaw Horn 18917]

He just has way too much swing and miss to be anything other than a 4th OF in the bigs while also not controlling the strike zone. 
Having Myers out hurt us here from a quality AB perspective in the playoffs but SIRI and Chaz have done just enough to have some important moments even if they weren’t the result of scalding the ball after a great AB. 

[deadshank 24644]

Tony Finau struck out.

If it's a right hander I agree. If it's a lefty I go with Diaz. Either way, Mandy isn't hitting

[elfenix 34001]

maldy still in

edit: 3-7 career vs this pitcher

If only Martin hadn’t got his monthly hit out of the way earlier tonight

Why? It was plain as day. His hand never even touched the ball after it hit the glove. It dropped before he could.

He doesn't have to touch it with the bare hand.  If it comes out when he's opening his glove and reaching for it, it's supposed to be an out.

[Harrison Stafford 3317]

Seriously missing Jake Meyers.  Seriously.

[Limp Brisket 529]

Crowd got loud, Siri swung at shit he shouldn’t have.  Correa did, too.

No way. Not up 4. You play defense at catcher here. 9 outs. 4 runs. Shouldn’t need any more runs. 
PH isn’t a guarantee for more runs. It’s a 10% greater chance to score here with a PH. No sense chasing imo. 

[billfromlaketravis 11268]

I won’t bury Siri, but that at bat was worse than Bregman. 

[WBT 20132]

Yeah, we're not going to hit for Maldonado with a 4 run lead.  It is what it is.

[Limp Brisket 529]

Not an ideal situation here.

[Mo Horn 8680]

Bad decision by Dusty there

[Fudge Nuggets 18825]

Siri and Maldonado sucked the life out of the stadium with those ABs.

[Telegraph_it 3350]

It’s what we deserve after that shit AB.

I was pounding the table for a PH in the 4th yesterday because the situation called for it. The situation doesn’t demand it here. It isn’t clearly the wrong call like last night was. 

[HoustonFrog 368]

Especially bad by Siri when a fly ball scores a run. Just need some kind of contact

Yeah, 4 runs is insurmountable. 

[CycleTex87 2944]

Shoulda sent Tuck there. Better chance to get a run than Maldy RBI. 

[Telegraph_it 3350]

Bregman and Correa not hitting with our 8 and 9 being so fucking terrible is really problematic on getting any runs going without a HR.
