So you’re good with ausmus?

So that’s fair then right?  He caught it directly over the fat part of the bag. 

100% that was a fair ball.

[UTexasFight 9454]

The rangers might give their regular season record of runs in a game (when they dropped 30 or whatever it was against the orioles) a run for its money

I was thinking more like.....

 

[Stros121 4]

Hinch

[Gut Wagon 8079]

Which one of you at the game can grab a glove and pitch the 5th? You might lower the team ERA. 

[Chuckie Finster 22694]

Not gonna be any “well we gave it a good run!!!” posts here.

I’ve said it a million times, but I fucking hate this team.

We are a 100+ win team with an invalid at manager and a roster full of head cases. My least favorite team I’ve watched in the golden era. Good riddance.

[Pimphand 5758]

All this dementia riddled clown needed to do to save his legacy was retire last year.

What’s the worst possible scenario for this game and none of us had it being 8-2 this quick. Entire pitching staff has aids tonight.

Anyone who watched this team all season could see this coming a mile away. 

I can't believe we made it this far.

[Rockethorn1978 6087]

Can we get some game 5 WS magic going tonight Astros and win 13-12.

I would take Wulaw over Dusty 1000 times out of 1000 and I am not kidding

[MirrOlure 14787]

My god an incredible play to get out of the inning…hope it matters!

I didn’t see Javier getting pulled 1/3 of the first inning. No one saw that. I saw us losing but more like 7-4. This might end up 13-3.

[UTexasFight 9454]

We were never down by this much, but we did score 7 across the 4th and 5th in 2017 WS game 5 for you glass half fullers

[Honeysucklerose 990]

Bring back Hinch

This team was lucky to win 90.

Maybe Montgomery is nice and cold now. Wishful thinking.

Then idk.

It looked fair. And we should have challenged.

unless a fair/foul call before the bag isn’t reviewable which would make no sense… but also wouldn’t surprise me 

 

If we lose by a run….

Bring back Hinch

And George and Carlos and

[Rockethorn1978 6087]

Montgomery is such a scrub and pitching like he’s a future Hof.

Yes. It was a fair ball

[Honeysucklerose 990]

We should get Tuck awfully cheap

[perfectchaos007 6656]

Feels like Tucker has lost a lot of money the past 4 weeks

You mean the genius who lost the WS because he couldn't win a home game with the best Astro team in history?

That Hinch?

Edited October 24, 2023 by David Dennison

[cabowabo 4487]

I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a player as lost and mind fucked as Tucker.

This. Texans and Rockets had the worst coaches in their sport the past 3 years. So have the Astros. They both went and hired the best coaches that were available. The Astros are going to get rid of Dusty and hire a smart manager. The era of the worst coaches/managers in Houston sports history is going to end.

Tucker is losing $1,000,000 per at bat. At this point….let him test the market.

It was and it's not

[LCHorn 2620]

My God, that Tucker at bat was atrocious.  

[Rockethorn1978 6087]

Great job tuck. Talk about an absolute shitty postseason. Who wants to sign this guy to be their best player

No he hasn't

Yea but we’re getting older too. Pitching is kinda shaky. If we make some ballsy moves and add some guys yea I think we will be back. 

 

we have 8 starters next year

[Dutchrudder 11139]

At the trade deadline we got Verlander and Graveman, and they got Scherzer and Montgomery, and that has made all the difference.  

[Honeysucklerose 990]

No he hasn't 

How can you ignore this postseason. That is what guys are paid to do

[Smax 3800]

No he hasn't 

He should.. guy has been a mess.

Camera pans the astros dugout, all of them look defeated

It's not reviewable for reasons I don't fathom.  It should have been called fair.  Ball was above fair territory when touched.

Sounds like the Angels will pay him then.
