You just missed him, Alex.

42

I donā€™t need more at bats, I need RBIs.

43

Passed ball makes it 2-0

44

Holy fuck, Maldy.

Thatā€™s brutal.

45

JFC Maldy

46

Next pitch ends the inning. But the Astros stomp their dicks to a 2-0 deficit

47

There is zero reason for Maldonado to play. Pitchers like him? Great, learn to like the other guy.

That inning was shit.

49

I love Maldy but he is not some defensive mistro anymore and obviously we know about his bat.

50

You need your best hitters to have the most at bats. The RBI will follow.

51

Yordan line out 111.5

52

Thatā€™s his 9th passed ball, which is a lot. Heā€™s also throwing out a career low 19% of base stealers, below league average.

It seems like the passed ball bug started feasting on him last year.

54

No, you need to put your best hitters in the most RBI opportunities.

55

He had 9 last year. So heā€™s already equaled that.

56

I canā€™t leave you clowns unsupervised for one inning??

I hope it was a helluva dinner

58

It was takeout BBQ.

It was rather disappointing. Much like the last inning.

59

Old school vs new school philosophy. Sabermetrics say best hitter should bat 2nd to get more ABs and still have the leadoff guy on a base a bunch in front of him.

60

Hudsonmetrics say you bat Ruth third, Gehrig fourth.
