2020 ALDS Game 1, Astros at A's, October 5, 2020

Jesus Murphy

Are they just going to leave him in to spare the bullpen? He clearly doesn’t have it today

Well…that’s that.

Sparks called that a pop up off the bat.

Remember that he’s watching the game on TV in Houston.

George’s reaction made me think it was a popup as well.

La Stella singles to right

Lance is not exactly fooling them

Absolutely true.

He hasn’t had it since 2018. Starting him in Game 1 was a huge mistake.

This is turning ugly

He’s falling behind every batter.

If there’s no one up in the pen, they’re conceding the game already.

Semien singles to center

1st/2nd no outs

Wow, McCullers giving out hits like Oprah

You get a hit! And YOU get a hit! Everyone gets a hit!

I don’t get it.

Strom is telling him to pitch better, I hope

LMJ has to go six innings no matter what, or this series is over. It’s pretty much over already, but to have any chance you can not burn the pen out in Game 1

Needed that. Now, let’s get one more out.

Lamb 4-6-3 dp; La Stella to 3rd

Strom told him to throw a double play ball. Good advice.

The radio guys generally have no clue how far the ball is going.
