You’re telling me a pitching coach doesn’t speak enough Spanish to communicate “throw some goddamn strikes”?
Maybe there were some other adjectives he didn’t know.
Time for Altuve plate discipline lol
Oh for fuck’s sake, Altuve.
Takes the fastball down the middle, swings at ball four.
Pretty funny.
Soooo lost.
Hole in the #1 spot
Stop trying to pull the slider!
Now would be a great time to snap out of your slump, Yordan.
That was a shit inning
Top 9.
pitching change, German in for Castro.
Vazquez - swings and misses a breaking ball, sinker low, sinker inside, changeup inside, sinker strike, breaking ball outside. Walks.
McCormick - FB inside, fouls off changeup, curveball outside, curveball outside, FB inside. Walks.
Altuve - breaking ball low and outside (and he laid off!), changeup inside, curveball strike, changeup inside, looks sinker strike down the middle, swings and misses a changeup. K.
Pena - swings and misses changeup, swings and misses a breaking ball, F9. Runners hold.
Alvarez - FB inside, fouls off changeup, lines FB foul, F9.
Mid 9. Astros 5. Yankees 0.
I’m not sure I wouldn’t send Montero out there again.
If the Astros didn’t swing at a single pitch, they score two runs. German couldn’t hit the side of a fucking barn.
Does that mean you would? Me too.
Hey, at least Yordan made contact. Maybe that’s a sign that he’ll get untracked tomorrow.
I would send him out for the ninth. Only burn anyone else if necessary.
You got Stanton, Torres, and Carpenter. That’s not a bad idea. But I’m guessing it’s Martinez.
He jumped on that 1-2 pitch.
And the flyout was just off the end of the bat.
Baby steps.
This Montero guy is pretty good.
