Not the best case scenario but I’ll take it.
Hang one to Yuli.
Correa was on the bag. He should have stayed there.
Alright, Yuli, start another rally
Correa distracted Schwarber just long enough.

Yeah, tough read.
Yeah, if he stays on the bag, Yordan might have been thrown out.

Crazy. You think you’ve seen everything in baseball and then that happens. Great play by 1B.
He’s still out when tagged.

Bottom 6
Alvarez, with Vazquez now catching, on a full count, triples on a line into right! Alvarez is doing everything he can to put this team on his freakish Cuban shoulders. They just half to meet him halfway!
Here comes Cora.
Correa, facing Tanner Houck, infield in, is HBP.
Dave Bush out again. Runners on the corners nobody out.
Tucker brings Alvarez home with a zinger double play to first. Schwarber fielded, tagged Correa, stepped on the base and was late with the throw home, in what would have been the most jaw-dropping triple play of all time.
Gurriel, bases empty, on a full count, grounds out 4-3.
One more run.
Astros up 2-0 going to the 7th.
Yeah, no doubt. I’m sure I would have fucked that up.
Shwarma came of the bag there, right?
No, Schwarber tagged the bag first. If Correa stays on 1B, he’s safe.
Graveman according to Gameday.

Logical choice with Bogaerts and Martinez up first in the inning

Hard to fault Correa there. That ball was smoked, and he had to try to draw a tag and make sure Alvarez scores.

Yup. It’s just that all of your instincts tell you to do something.

Your instinct is to not get doubled off. Then it’s to try to get tagged. Not much he could do really.
From his perspective Carlos has to assume it’s a liner that’s caught.
Like others said it’s a blessing bc otherwise they come home quicker.
