Is this the first time Joe Smith has pitched since being called back up?

Yuli had one to hit, too.
Offense really flopping as hard as possible today.

You just put in Straw to run. Why not take a pitch?

Complete waste of a good start by LMJ.
At least they took the series.

I wish the offense would’ve let me know they were taking the day off so I could’ve done the same.
What an absolutely pathetic effort against a guy with a 4 and half ERA.

Interesting series.
That sucked, but can’t win 'em all

Altuve needs to wear a buzzer. They should shock him everytime he swings at stupid shit.

I will say this for Altuve: he is the best bad-ball hitter that any of us will ever see. What’s stupid shit to him is probably a bit different than for the rest of us mortals.

You obviously never saw or do not remember Yogi Berra.
No, I didn’t. My loss, because that would have been worth seeing.
Vlad Guerrero Sr has to be mentioned too
I was also going to mention Vlad Sr.
Vlad the Impaler is my vote for best bad ball hitter in my memory. Altuve is a distant second.
Ditto.
The main differences between Berra and Altuve, IMO, is Yogi hit hard most of the bad pitches he swung at, and he did not chase pitches he could not reach.
I wish I had seen Yogi.
