Second year in a row we've given up a triple play to the White Sox.

I’m not sure I like what the BBGs are up to when there’s a triple play and a home run to straight-away center.

austro · « **Reply #11 on:** May 22, 2019, 08:00:16 pm »

Garrett's pitching like he thinks he's going to get 10 runs behind him. That's not gonna happen.

MusicMan · « **Reply #12 on:** May 22, 2019, 08:01:44 pm »

I would like Hinch to stop calling the “give up home run” play and the “hit into multiple outs” play.

T4:

Moncada strikes out swinging
Abreu crushes a fucking laser line drive home run to dead center field...ball was still rising over Jake's head (he barely had time to turn around, let alone try to chase it) when it about knocked over the batter's eye...measured at 408 mph and 2 10 degree launch angle...
McCann strikes out looking
Alonso...3-0...3-1...3-2...walks
Jimenez strikes out swinging

2-0 Sox

In the first three innings, Nova allows four base runners and faces the minimum.

geezerdonk · « **Reply #19 on:** May 22, 2019, 08:16:55 pm »

Terrible throw by Sanchez. Any kind of decent throw and Brantley was a dead duck. Moncada way out of position. Another terrible throw., this time by Garcia leads to a third run.

Astros Fan in Big D · « **Reply #20 on:** May 22, 2019, 08:17:27 pm »

Bottom 4

Reddick grounds out to the pitcher
Bregman homers to left
Brantley singles to right
Correa dumps an 0-2 pitch into the RF corner; it's bobbled so Pettis goes into windmill mode; Brantley scores, Correa safe at 3rd
Díaz sac fly to center plates Correa
White plops a ball into shallow center for a single
Kemp 4-3 into the shift

End 4
White Sox 2
Astros 3

Top 5
Anderson singles to center

Sánchez sends one to the track in left center, Jake tracks it down and sends it back in to Correa who gets Anderson to complete the 8-6-3 dp

Mid 5

I can’t remember what or where it was but it seems like Jake made an even better play about a week ago.

Yeah, I"m trying to think of three other CFers in the AL who make that catch. Maybe Kiermaier. Maybe Jackie Martin Jr. Maybe Lorenzo Cain.

ETA: Except that Cain isn't in the AL anymore.

Whatever sharpness Cole had is gone. I don't know how long Hinch will go with him but he looks done with no outs in the sixth.

Hard to get through innings when you have to throw the ball through a fucking donut, AND get four outs an inning.

Jeff Kellog owes me four fucking runs.

And I mean bad for any team. I watch a reasonable number of random games. Usually when you see bad umpiring it’s expanding the zone to an unreasonable degree or bizarre inconsistency. It’s usually not an outright refusal to call a strike a strike.
