Interesting to see if Cole can avoid drawn out ABs. They did a good job yesterday of stringing things out against JV.

T1:

Lindor lines out F8 in RCF gap
Brantley chops down the 1B line, ball hits the bag, but Gurriel stays with it and takes it himself...3U
Ramirez flies out F7 on the first pitch

No score.

B6:

Altuve...quickly down 0-2...1-2...chops down the LF line, Altuve falls down in the box, Donaldson fields it right on the line, but throws it over Alonso's head. Altuve safe, but comes up limping...ruled a single...trainers out, but Altuve stays in the game
Bregman...works the count full...walks, Altuve to 2B
Gurriel lines out to deep LCF on the first pitch...another well struck ball with nothing to show for it

Carrasco out, Miller in for the Tribe...

Marwin...from the starboard side...doubles to RF, Altuve scores, Bregman scores as Ramirez bobbles it at the wall
Correa...3-0...walks
White...wild pitch behind him makes it 2-1 as Marwin to 3B and Correa to 2B...infield now comes in...and White is intentionally walked to load the bases
Gattis announced as pinch hitter for Reddick, and

Miller out, Bauer in...

Gattis pops out F4
Maldonado hacking at two pitches in the dirt to go down 0-2...whiffs at another slider 4 feet off the plate

Astros leave the bases loaded, but grab a 2-1 lead.

Gattis pinch hitting there is stupid.

I think AJ (Hinch, not Pudjerkski) knows what he's doing.

Astros Fan in Big D · « **Reply #113 on:** October 06, 2018, 05:56:32 pm »

He had 2 swinging strikes at 0-2 but both swings added together barely equaled 1 swing.

Awful.

Maybe not 'stupid', but Josh hits left handers well, is hitting well generally, and Miller didn't look good at all.

I wouldn't have had a problem letting Reddick hit, but I don't have an problem with letting Gattis try to drive a run in there. He got a pitch to hit in the air, was just under it a hair.
