Damn it 

[Wulaw Horn 18980]

I don’t believe Dusty filled out the lineup card- having Diaz do such a shifty AB when we have one guy who had put up some quality AB’s. I will take some from satisfaction at the end of the year when be it Dusty or Click that fucked that up gets handed their walking papers. Fuck them fuck them fuck them. 

[Dark Horse 2263]

Zero clutch

[MirrOlure 14625]

Goddammit

[cabowabo 4452]

What a waste.  

[Dnaguy 11772]

Can McCormick hit anything but a fastball?

[Planet Houston 4923]

Sigh

Fuk u Diaz. Worthless 

The only person more worthless is the one who put him in the lineup to be worthless

[Macklemore 2870]

Awful. We need to a damn run and should have bunted and played small ball

[TexArcher 37508]

Leadoff doubles have to score.  They just have to.  God dammit.

[Make em eat Taco Bell 1549]

let's pinch hit for David Hensley! 

Javier will need to shutout for Houston to have a chance.  Only hope is a Breg HR.

bottom of lineup is trash.  Good news though is Nola isn't a god, we can hit him.

No

[HtownHorn 14485]

Fucking entire right side of the infield is open and these stupid mother fuckers trying to pull it.

[Tommy Nobis 905]

Our offense sucks dick. And Dusty’s lineup decision to play Diaz doesn’t help at all.

[Dnaguy 11772]

How is this lineup legal? I thought abortions were illegal now.

[VirginiaLonghorn 4750]

That inning was doomed when Vazquez HBP .. deadwood after him.

[cabowabo 4452]

I knew we were fucked when he hit Vasquez. 

[Victorious1 140]

Astros coming up to the plate guessing instead of hitting.  Not going to win games looking at pitches over the middle and swinging at garbage off the plate.

[Dnaguy 11772]

No

Oh ok. I hope no one figures that out!

That could really be bad for us.

[rvm96 1643]

On the bright side the lineup got turned over to Altuve to lead off next inning.

All the luck is on the Phillies side. Don’t think it goes back to Houston 

[Smax 3800]

Can't have missed opportunities like that

[utxmike05 1825]

Mfer!! 
Wish vazquez had a chance to hit

It's not luck to have 3 shitty ABs after the double. It's just Dusty's shitty lineups.

[Guadaloopy 10921]

That hurt.   Amazing how bad Diaz is right now.

Can you keep the doom and gloom at bay until it’s warranted. We’re going to fucking win here and flip the script

[cabowabo 4452]

Strike 4. 

[MirrOlure 14625]

Vazquez kinda sucks at catching

[Brisketexan 104596]

That hurt.   Amazing how bad Diaz is right now.  

Those were two really shitty ABs. Goddammit.

[Planet Houston 4923]

That is some bullshit

[Guadaloopy 10921]

HPU costing us a K there on two pitches.  

[Tommy Nobis 905]

On the bright side the lineup got turned over to Altuve to lead off next inning. 

You say that like he’s batting.300 in the playoffs lol

[Dnaguy 11772]

Harper getting every fucking call.

Dude doesn’t need help.

Fuck these umps hard.

But I guess this is what hitting looks like

[PenelopeWitherspoon 19093]

So ball 3 on Harper was actually a strike.  Fuck that.

[Hate 20103]

Those were two really shitty ABs. Goddammit.

It’s like they don’t have a plan at the plate. They don’t seem to be sitting on a pitch ever. It’s all reactive.

[Macklemore 2870]

That’s a strikeout. Fuck yes. Let’s get a DP here.

I'm a 3/4 glass empty person but am optimistic tonight because we've got the power pitcher on the mound and we know Nola can be had.  I'm not optimistic with JV tomorrow at all, zero.

[TexArcher 37508]

Javier's slider is naaaasty.

Let's go!!

This reeks of the stubborn summer run with Meyers  when everyone could see he was colder than liquid nitrogen.

I have less of an issue with ball 1.  That third ball was egregious.

Goddammit.  Not a great throw.

[Rip76 4914]

Hold these MF’ers 

[Dnaguy 11772]

So frustrating. Every throw. Every swing is labor for Astros.

Phillies lose as fucj

[Make em eat Taco Bell 1549]

since Hensley, Vasquesz, Machete are better hitters than Diaz/Dubon/Mancini, why not play 2 of the 3 of the first group at all times?  It's ok to have one C at DH, don't be scared. 

Please Javier go 8.  Please. 

I see a Breg HR soon.

[elfenix 34171]

Only 2 extra pitches but an extra batter

[Macklemore 2870]

Javier shutting up that crowd. Let’s put up a crooked number.

[TexArcher 37508]

Good job, Javier!!

Let's get him a lead now, pls...

I would still rather to have him up to bat than not. 

[Macklemore 2870]

Qatar’s stadium looks a vagina.
