Fuck both of those morons.
Absolutely inexcusable at bats with RISP.
Fucking miserable.
Tucker and Maldonado need to take a class in laying off high fastballs.
Top 4 Sale pitching
Brantley – foul, strike 1; foul (slider), strike 2; ball 1 fastball up and out; swinging strike out – low and outside slider;
Bregman – ball 1, low and in slider; strike 1 looking at the knees, slider; fouls low change up, strike 2; ball low and inside slider, checked swing; fouls FB in on the hands; fouls a high outside slider; ball 4 low inside FB.
Alvarez – ball 1 FB high inside; strike 1 FB high outside corner; ball 2 – pick off throw to first – safe; ball 3 FB high inside; strike 2 slider; hit high off the green monster - single - 1st and 3rd.
Correa – strike 1 FB low inside corner; strike 2 swinging over slider; strikes out swinging at high FB
Tucker – strike 1 swinging; ball outside; strike 2 swinging at high inside FB; swinging strike 3 at high outside FB.
Runner at 3rd on a silver platter, and they leave him there. Pitiful.
Tucker would’ve better served being up there without a fucking bat.
That was absolutely goddamn awful.
Correa and Tucker really helped Sale out of that inning.
Keep pounding the zone, second time through, Framber.
He got two strikeouts by throwing two strikes.

I hope I’m wrong, but this feels like the wheels-fall-off inning from Framber after that shit sandwich from the offense.
You can only stomp your dick so many times before it gets sore.
LOL, wtf happened with this broadcast?
“Uh, you want us to get rid of the strike zone box?”
“No, no we would never tell you to get rid of it, we just dont want anybody to “see” it. Understand?”

No walks, Framber
Hold on. Batter’s don’t have to swing at head high fastballs they can’t hit?
WHAT!?
I’ve been wondering about this myself
I’m glad you were wrong.
Get this man some runs
Ok, can an Astro not named Yordan Alvarez generate some offense here in the 5th?
Keep doing what you are doing, Framber.

Framber’s managing to keep the pitch count low.
Astros’ offense: Pound Sale and get Framber more run support.
