Brantley doubles to LF...Frazier dives, but it's off his arm
Wild pitch, Brantley moves to 3B
Correa...works the count full...walks
Gurriel flies out F9, Brantley tags and scores on the sac fly
Correa steals 2B
Reddick rolls one towards SS, with the shift, no play, Correa to 3B
Chirinos...0-2...1-2...strikes out swinging
Kemp flies out F9 on the first pitch

Astros strand a pair, but tie it up 1-1

B3:

Springer...full count...grounds out 6-3
Altuve...3-0...3-1...homers to LF
Bregman...full count...walks
Brantley...full count...singles to LF, Bregman running with the shift on, third baseman goes to cover 2B, meaning no one is covering 3B, so Bregman moves to 3...
Correa...0-2...strikes out swinging....fugly at bat
Gurriel flies out F7

AGAIN...Astros leave a pair when thy get a runner at 3B with one out and can't make contact.

2-1 Astros

Gardner...3-0...walks on four pitches
Judge takes strike three for ball two...full count...takes strike four for ball four...WOW...incompetent...Gardner to 2B
Voit grounds to SS, Judge out 6-4, but Altuve's turn in the dirt and Yuli can't pick.  Voit reaches on the FC, Gardner to 3B
Sanchez doubles to LF, Gardner scores, ball takes a funny carom off the wall kicks towards CF and Voit comes around to score
Torres strikes out looking
Lemahieu strikes out swinging

But the Yankees break all the rules and get a hit with runners on base...lead 3-2

Going back to last year in the postseason.  It just seems that whenever something doesn't go quite right, the wheels fall off with him.

There was a fan shot after Springer's double, and it looked to me like the guy intentionally did a Bregman stare into the camera, which is kind of funny if true.

Yes, I noticed that, too. Was exactly what the fan was doing.

Umpire flipping a coin back there

Reminds me of Whitey Herzog's quote when he was asked to rate Charlie Williams as a ball/strike umpire: "It's a good thing he doesn't have a third choice".

I never thought I'd be in favor of an automated strike zone, but my god, some of these guys are simply atrocious.

The really incredible thing to me is it's the veteran umpires that are looking the worst the last few seasons.

The younger umps may not call the rectangle perfectly, but they are WAY more consistent.
