Last year they swung at 29% of pitches outside the zone, 18th in the league.
This year it’s 29.7%, 13th in the league.
End of three…3-0 Rangers. Though I’m not sure why we’re still counting at this point.
That’s really interesting. What about inside the zone?
Steve Sparks immediately gets on the broadcast and says the Astros aren’t being patient with Heaney.
Lead off walk, and Tucker promptly rolls into a double play.
Last year 67%, 7th in the league
This year 66.4%, 10th in the league
I understand the feeling. I’m out of patience with them.

Just weak.
Last 18 inning this team has punched across one run.
Good lord, Yainer
If you throw it, he will swing.

He safe
We’re getting really good at hitting into double plays, though …
Very safe. Despite rolling over a pitch six inches outside.
Six inches? It wasn’t nearly that close.
He has the worst plate discipline of anyone on the team. I’m not sure I’ve seen one worse in MLB.
There is zero reason for a pitcher to throw Yainer Diaz a strike. He will get himself out.

Every swing Dubon steps two feet back with his right foot. What the literal fuck?
Good god, ump
Liberal is putting it mildly, Sparks.
Astros at 2B and 3B, two out for Peña
