Loading the bases would be a hell of a spot to put a rookie in.
Of course, so is facing Judge with the fake on the line.
Poor Seth had to face Jugde with 2 runners he didnāt even put there - the ghost and IBB
Better to walk him, imo. Force everywhere. Cannot pay any attention to what year he is.

Eh.
Not gonna bash the strategy. I doubt they told him to groove one.
2 pop ups in the top half were devastating.
Very good series. Astros should gain a lot of confidence from it.

My takeaway is 2 heavyweights traded haymakers.

Yep. We should have scored more than one. I would rather pitch to anyone but Judge there.
Letās win Thursday! Big matchup with Cole v. Verlander. Who else will be there?
About 50 other players?
Yes, silly, but what about any of you?
All-in-all, I preferred yesterdayās game.

No, my next tickets are on the 4th
Runners on 2nd and 3rd, 3-4-5 hitters up, and no runs score. You canāt be surprised if you lose after that.

Yep. The ballgame was over there.
It didnāt affect anything but why not leave Alvarez in instead of Diaz in LF?
Yeah. I didnāt really understand that, either. Probably just Dusty sticking to his day-off philosophy as much as possible.
He didnāt start because of a sore hand.
2 run lead, sore hand, Diaz is solid defensively.
Thatās the mindset Iām guessing.
Also, once Brantley had to come out of the game, why not Alvarez over JJ at DH? Would have given Yordan a second at bat in a crucial spot. Astros are off tomorrow and donāt even have to leave the city.
Ok well, I hadnāt read about the sore hand as a reason for the day off. Just figured it was typical Dusty management.
You forgot #2 who struck out on a ball for out 1. #3 walked, then #s 4 and 5 popped up. Thereās your ball game.
