Astros have gone 15 innings without scoring a run. That ain’t gonna get it done.

I said fuck it and am fine with the 38 second delay listening to Ford and Sparks over this babbling idiot Smoltz.

Thought y'all should know.  

 

I’m a minute and 5 seconds behind.

I find that extra “count to 5” time before checking this thread is actually good for my sanity  

[Updawg 2388]

Well let’s get it done.

Have we had a walk in 15 innings?

Bc I have to figure those things coralate.

ok. That’s not fair.

when was the last 3 ball at bat?

[cabowabo 4692]

Balls are being hit right at people. 

[Dnaguy 12723]

Tucker with a great at bat!

Snake bit.

[TexArcher 39077]

Unlucky for Tuck because he smashed that.  He looks locked in tonight at least.

[Macklemore 2945]

Nice hit Piña

[Dnaguy 12723]

Astros starting to see the ball a little better.

[UTexasFight 9819]

Yuli quietly creeping up on all time postseason record for most consecutive plate appearances without a K

[Macklemore 2945]

There we go. No Aledmys is up

[utxmike05 1833]

Great. Easy out coming

[Wulaw Horn 19599]

Redeem yourself here you worthless fuckstick. 

[tx 3 putt 78759]

get him home 

[cabowabo 4692]

Black hole up. 

[Dark Horse 2436]

Diaz is due

[TexArcher 39077]

Okay, Diaz, I think you're gonna fail.  Prove me wrong.

[cabowabo 4692]

Why the fuck is he playing?

Small ball is dead. Manufacturing runs doesn’t happen anymore.

Bunts arent a thing.

when’s the last hit and run you’ve seen IRL?

[Gut Wagon 8219]

PH for him. 

[Planet Houston 4950]

Fucking worthless

[Macklemore 2945]

God damn it. Pull Aledmys for fuck’s sake. He is not getting any good contact

[tx 3 putt 78759]

[utxmike05 1833]

Mutherfocker!!!! 

[Horn80 6361]

Diaz ain’t cutting it

[TexArcher 39077]

Wonder what Hensley might have done with Diaz's two AB's with runners in SP...

[Dnaguy 12723]

Why is Diaz even on our roster?

I mean, I’m not even talking about the line up. 

He should have made the playoff roster.

just fucking awful.

[Tommy Nobis 905]

Diaz is a good regular season spell for an everyday starter who need rest every so often. That’s it. In no way shape or form should he be starting a world
Series game lol.

[UTexasFight 9819]

Going lmj in game 3 instead of Javier (this getting Javier only 1 start) and going diaz for defense instead of Hensley may be the 2 biggest decisions that cost us the world series

This game is going to drive me nuts

This doesn't make sense

[Wulaw Horn 19599]

Tried saying nothing. Didn’t work. Tried tough love. Didn’t work. Feels like nothing will work other than perhaps, you know, playing a guy that doesn’t suck at DH. But that was on the table last night, it worked better than anything else we did, and he got PH for and then not started. Makes total sense.

Hensley needs some games in the OF next spring. How can you be athletic enough to play SS at 6’6 but not play LF? I’m probably over simplifying but if Yordan can, cmon. He puts good at bats together. He will have value as a utility guy next year instead of Diaz and Dubon

[MirrOlure 15317]

This doesn't make sense

But for an “n’t”

You've never noticed Altuve bunting or the Astros trying a suicide squeeze? 

[Macklemore 2945]

Nice K!! 

[utxmike05 1833]

Going to waste a great pitching performance.

Javier picking up this team. El Reptil is the man. Come on let’s fucking score some runs.
