So far Altuve, Dubon, Abreu, & Tucker have made him throw 6 pitches to get 4 outs.  That ain't gonna work.

[tx 3 putt 76905]

chas and pena have to do something today at the plate

[perfectchaos007 6634]

Was hoping someone would get on base so Maldy wouldn't lead off the 3rd

[WBT 20561]

damn, couldn't clear the pitcher spot

[Rockethorn1978 6077]

I’m getting tired head with Montgomery getting attention like he’s a hof pitcher. We need to blast his ass because he’s due.

He's very much on pace for a complete game if we don't pull our heads out of arse stat....

Yeah, we're gonna need a couple of RBI or runs scored from the bottom third of the lineup, I think.

Nasssttyyyyy K

[Smax 3800]

Nice leather P

[WBT 20561]

Nice play JP

[TexArcher 37774]

Attaboy, JP!

Hey, JV, let's not hang one like that to Jung again, yeah?

[utxmike05 1828]

A great def play at 3rd and SS gives me a chub

[tx 3 putt 76905]

time to stack some R's 

[Rockethorn1978 6077]

Jung looks like an old 80’s player with a huge wad of dip in his mouth. I mean he is a tech shit kicker so it makes sense.

lulz, I'll take it.  I'm sure they're rightfully complaining on the still shitty thread

[Rip76 4925]

Need to see a bunt soon, for some traffic.

Well, it wasn't technically a strike, but you have to know that Hall of Famers are gonna get the benefit of the doubt.  Hell, Maddux got 3 inches outside the whole second half of his career.  Use that bat, son.

[tx 3 putt 76905]

that maldy walk  yesterday was damn important

[tx 3 putt 76905]

damn altuve is jumping on those first pitches

Edited October 20, 2023 by tx 3 putt

[Pimphand 5735]

Fucking Altuve make the bastard throw pitches WTF....

What is the record for fewest combined pitches in a playoff game?  We have to be on pace at this rate....

[tx 3 putt 76905]

hmm, who knew dubon had the highest BA the last two months of the season in mlb 

[perfectchaos007 6634]

Montgomery will be able to pitch all 9 innings with less than 100 pitches at this rate. 

[Js1 85311]

Maybe we will wear out Seagar’s arm 

[Rockethorn1978 6077]

I get the aggressiveness but we want to get to the bullpen. Why can’t we ever support verlander? He’s pitching so we lose all plate discipline and just swing at whatever?

they're swinging at strikes looks like, just need to make better contact

No shit have they gotten an out by anyone else yet?

Jung threw at least one to first for an out

No I know he got Chazzy Fizz's ball but still everyone besides Alvarez & Bregman has just hit weak ass shit on way too few pitches.

[Rockethorn1978 6077]

This is a classic verlander start. They can’t hit him, Astros won’t score for him, then he gives up 3-4 in an inning after 5/6 of scoreless dominate pitching. 

[Seasick Sailor 3747]

Dumb walk

Doomed......  Sure would be nice if Dusty gave JV a real linueup one of these days.

[Pimphand 5735]

JFC JV you got like 7 outs on 22 pitches or someshit then the 8 and 9 hole come up and the train starts to derail

[Rockethorn1978 6077]

Just get out of the inning

[Js1 85311]

Uh oh

[MirrOlure 14760]

Nails

[Wishbone 4759]

Whew!

[Rockethorn1978 6077]

Fuck off semen and Seager

[Smax 3800]

Whew

[Pimphand 5735]

Thank god Semien is in Tucker mode

[WBT 20561]

nice job JV

[TexArcher 37774]

Attaboy, JV.

Let's get him a couple more now.

[Js1 85311]

Uh oh

for the rangers!  Lol

 

[UTexasFight 9431]

Phew.wwwww.

 

 

 

I can’t believe they didn’t start with offspeed to either Semien or Seager with as aggressive as they obviously are right now

(And JV not getting a single swing and miss on a fastball in game 1)

Edited October 20, 2023 by UTexasFight

[perfectchaos007 6634]

That was big. I'm ready for our crooked number inning

[Macklemore 2876]

Thank God we got out of that without giving up a run. Come on bats wake up!

Sounds like a 70’s light rock band.
