Springer with a leadoff single

Rays with action in the bullpen...third hitter of the game

Joe Girardi has rocketed past Joe Buck as my least favorite sports commentator. Holy fuck, he just doesn't shut up. It's like he's a robot designed to fill silence with useless information.
-
The Astros have taken a bunch of hittable pitches this inning.
-
T1:
Springer...takes strike one...takes strike two...ball outside...singles to RF against the shift
Brantley strikes out looking
Altuve...0-2...fouling off pitches out of the zone...strikes out swinging at ball five at his back foot.
Bregman strikes out swinging
No score
-

And swung at slop. Not a good start.
-
This fucking guy has thrown THREE spinning breaking balls center in, and the Astros have swung at zero of them.
But Altuve swung at a pitch that was probably going to hit him to strike out, so we've got that going for us, so that's nice.
And Bregman swings through a spinner at the top of the zone.
Fucking beautiful.
-
Boo it up, you bunch of fair weather fucktards.
-
1-0 Rays
-
God. Fucking. Damnit.
1-2 meatball.

So far in 1 game + 1 inning, the Rays are murdering every single mistake pitch the Astros make.
And the Astros are taking those pitches.

Verlander struggling with command early.

Rays with two on, one out...lead 1-0...

Well, the hitters have to win this one. Assuming the Rays wouldn't score would be stupid.

3-0 Rays....Verlander getting rocked.

B1:
Meadows...0-2...strikes out swinging
Pham homers to LCF...on a 2-strike hanging changeup right down the pipe, of course
Choi...full count...walks
Garcia singles to LF, Choi to 2B
Lowe pops out to shallow LF
d'Arnaud with a soft grounder past Bregman into LF, Choi scores, Garcia to 2B
Wendle doubles to RF, Garcia scores, d'Arnaud to 3B
Kiermaier strikes out swinging
But the Rays jump all over JV...lead 3-0 after one

So this lineup change has put all your black holes together...Reddick, Chirinos Springer, and Brantley. The Astros have no chance to win this series unless these guys wake up.

I'll give them a call.
-
Verlander has nothing.
-
Pretty sure most of the hits have been on the slider.
-
You know, Verlander might be pitching better if his team could get some hits. Must suck to feel as though you can't pitch without making a mistake.
And right now, I blame this offense way more than Verlander. At least he is trying.
-
This team looks totally uninterested in playing baseball today. This is fucking pathetic.

You couldn't have done that yesterday?

Home run was a changeup. But he's definitely fallen in love with the slider, which he has no feel for.

Short rest. I'm sure it's different for a catcher.

Altuve and Bregman need to provide the offense a spark this inning.

Didn't want to bug them.

Where is the MVP when needed? Altuve and Bregman get on and Alvarez can finally hit a homerun and get out of his funk. Did that funk start when Jim R went to Europe. Maybe Jim needs to make sure Alvarez knows he is watching??
-
Home run was a changeup. But he's definitely fallen in love with the slider, which he has no feel for.
And not spotting the FB.
I reiterate my request for offensive chippage.

You’re right, just the last 3 hits were on sliders. Others were changeup, fastball, and curveball.

Keirmaier is a good CF. I get part of what I asked for.
I still send Altuve. Has to be perfect play and it was. But at least the Astros had some life.

Instead of 2B and 3B with one out, you have 2B and two out.

When things are not going your way, things don't go your way.

Still a man on 2nd.
And a new pitcher.
Maybe one of these pitchers will throw a center cut meatball for our guys.

Fear not, Verlander serving it up. That was on a fucking tee.

At least it was a no doubter.

So...there is at least one reason to hate the Rays. Willy Adames. And not because he's good.

It's fucking embarrassing how much they're sucking off the crowd of the team that had the second lowest regular season attendance this year.

Verlander just not wanting to throw the fastball tonight.

So based on earlier post at 3-0, 4-0 feels like 30-0 and the game ended 2 hours ago?

4 innings in 2 hours. I may not stay awake the whole game.

Astros hitters just slapping at the ball, not even attempting to drive it.
This is just sad.

We need some belief.... its too predictable (pop-ups, tappers to the mound, and stupid takes).
We score in bunches --- all it takes is one and then we go from there.

To be fair Chirinos didn't slap at strike 3.

Chirinos works the count 3-1 then swings at a pitch around his eyes.
Then takes a fastball that catches a ton of the zone for strike 3.
What the FUCK!?
How about ONE inning where the Astros put together more than one good at bat!?
Fucking trash baseball.

2. 2 run dong in 8th Alvarez or Yuli (get within a run)
3. Game tying steal of home in the top of the 9th by Straw
4. Game goes to the 15th inning and we get a walkoff from Ted
There... this is best I can make with this shit given,

There hustle/effort-- Springer not hustling down the line. That's not his MO, and I don't think lollygagging is an issue.
Then there's getting led by the nose thru every AB. That's what drives me crazy thru these stretches.
Then there's 3 hard hit balls all turning into outs.
-
Astros will have one more time through the order, but cannot give up another run.

Remember this:
1. Nothing is ever easy with the Houston Astros in the post-season
2. We still have 9 outs
3. Past does not necessarily predict future outcomes
4. See #1

Yes it was.
Alex was locked in on the next one.

Snell in for the Rays to pitch to Alvarez as the tying run...one out...

And there still appear to be seats covered with tarp in the nosebleeds.

Imagine Snell will come in to face Alvarez if he comes up.
Good call!!!

Over/under on high fastballs this at bat?

I guess I picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue.

Vegas won't touch that

Alvarez does not handle the high fastball well.
-
Oooooooooooooooooo

Another putrid at bat with RISP.

Strike 1 should have been bombed.
Instead he flails at a worm burner to strike out.
-
He missed his pitch on 0-1. Fuck

Alvarez overmatched. Down to the last out...
-
And Yuli takes 96 right down the fucking middle to start his at bat.
Fuck.

There are some Astros players who need a serious gut check.

Another center cut fastball.
Offense better wake the fuck up for Game 5, because the shitty fucking effort tonight isn't going to win many games.

Everything hit hard was hard at ‘em.

They got every break.

Other than the one Chirinos hit out.
But if the Rays don’t cut down Altuve, then Alvarez and Yuli are trying to single in the tying run instead of homering it in. Big difference.

Alvarez never stood a chance against Snell. Yuli hit the ball well, but the Rays were in the right spot.

Brantley...Gurriel...Correa...Reddick...time to reach down and find a pair before Thursday because you're getting another dose of what you got tonight from the Rays.

Brantley at least hit two balls hard.

Brantley at least hit two balls hard.
Josh hit a bullet that was of course caught by Choi.

Moral victories ain't gonna be enough. They've dicktepped themselves into an elimination game. Results matter now.

Game #1: Comfortable home win delivered by lock-down pitching and solid run support
Game #2: Squeaky home win behind lock-down pitching and barely enough run support
Game #3: Comfortable home win delivered by lock-down pitching and solid run support
Game #4: Squeaky home win behind lock-down pitching and barely enough run support
Game #5: 🤷♂️

As much as we fans like to think we make a difference, we don't get to play. Unfortunately, I did not make the postseason roster, though I'm certain I'd be hitting as well as Josh Reddick.

They were in the right spots all night. When Choi is a defensive wizard, you know it is not your night.
