I do not understand the pitch sequence there to Trout
B8:
Stanek n
Duffy, pinch hitting for Velazquezā¦lines out to CF
Fletcher flies out F8
Trout walks
Ohtaniā¦0-2ā¦1-2ā¦grounds out 3U
To the 9thā¦tied at 1-1
Now score a run, Astros!
Hell of a pitch, Skynyrd
T9:
Quijada in for the Angels
Tucker takes strike oneā¦takes strike twoā¦ballā¦ballā¦foulā¦foulā¦strikes out swinging
Vazquez grounds out 4-3 in the shift behind 2B
Manciniā¦0-2ā¦takes strike three
1-1
Itās called the āIām terrifiedā sequence.

I love Abreuās stuff when itās on, but good god does his control make me nervous.
Dubon at 2nd since he came in for Mancini?
Nvmd, yes
A productive out would have been nice
Just quick enough.
T10:
Dubon at 2B
Hensleyā¦pinch hitting for Matijevicā¦0-2ā¦strikes out swinging. Not productive
McCormick pops to shallow CFā¦also not productive
Quidaja outā¦Herget in
PeƱa grounds to 2B, beats Herget to 1Bā¦infield single, Dubon to 3B
Altuveā¦hackingā¦grounds into 5-4 FC
1-1
Oh geez

Neris in, Sierra pinch running for Ford at 2B
Aguilar with a swinging bunt up the 1B line, 1-3 as Sierra moves to 3B
Stassiā¦infield and outfield inā¦extreme shift onā¦strikes out swinging
Duffy hit by the first pitch
Duffy steals 2B
Fletcher flies out F9
Still 1-1
BTW: Hergetās stirrups are called the Northwestern pattern
Altuve moved himself over
Jeebus, Bregman
2 hanging curves and he guessed wrong on the 1st and stared at the 2nd
T11:
Altuve at 2B
Gurriel bounces back to the moundā¦,unproductive again
Altuve swipes 3B. Productive
Bregmanā¦infield inā¦hacking at sliders off the plateā¦takes a hanging curve right down the center of the plate for strike three. Ugh

Vazquez flies out to shallow LF
Still 1-1
