Gattis has been a solid catcher so far. I wonder why he stopped catching in the first place? Has he improved since he used to catch for the Braves?

I don't understand how it's possible to blow a review.

It's the same thing that made NFL replay review so sketchy during the first few years it was used... referees/umpires  don't want to show up their bros...

B8:

Springer singles to LF
Marwin...3-0...3-1...smashes one past the third baseman, ruled an E5, Springer jogs into 3B, not sure why he can't score there

That's all for Sale, Jones in

Altuve sac fly F9, Springer scores, Marwin inexplicable stands at 2B and watches the play
Correa...full count...strikes out swinging at a pitch over his head
Gomez grounds out 6-3

To the 9th...7-5 Sox

Umpires don't make the review call.

How did Marwin not advance to 3rd on that?

We certainly got screwed on a call, but the failure to play with their heads up will be the reason this goes down as a loss.

T9:

Neshek in...

Abreu doubles to CF, as Gomez runs in a circle
Frazier...full count...flies out F8
Avila strikes out swinging
Lawrie flies out F8

To the bottom of the 9th...Astros chasing a pair

You got five runs off of Sale.  You gotta win that game.

I'm happy for Reed, but this hurts a little more now.

Totally agreed. This one was in the 54 that can go either way, and they gave it away.

B9:

Robertson in for the Sox...

Gattis flies out F8
Valbuena flies out F9
Reed, pinch hitting for Worth, homers to RCF
Rasmus, pinch hitting for Marisnick, strikes out swinging at a pitch in the dirt

Astros step on their dicks to a 7-6 loss

Last I looked Sipp was doing better against RH hitters than LH hitters. I would rather have Hoyt on the team then. Or, a LH reliever that actually can get LHers out.
