Why the hell are you not setting up a DP and bringing up the 9 hitter?
Fuck. Ort squeezed on what should have been strike three
Welp
Popup to shallow LF, Chas with a 37-hopper a couple of minutes late.
Ballgame.
What a shit job of lining up that throw, but it’s not like Chas could throw anyone out.
Still the worst throwing outfield in the game
Blummer absolutely correct that this is on the offense.
You can’t keep losing games where you allow 3 runs.
There was a better chance of relaying it to Peña. McCormick ain’t throwing anyone out from anywhere on the field.
It’s not particularly close.
Again, so many chances at the plate. Should have been a win.
Idk why Dubon is not the late inning defensive sub
Chas is not a major league player on a team that’s trying to win.
The Astros have stolen 24 bases and been caught 12 times. They’ve allowed 57 and only caught 5.
I think 8 of those were McCormick getting picked off.
Seems low.
Wow
One of the things that made me fall in love with the Astros over the years was the “Astros Way” of solid fundamentals and respect for the game. Regardless of how talented the team was or how they were doing.
The poor base running and the poor base running defense is painful to watch.
To be fair, it was only three runs because the Rays only needed one in the bottom of the 9th. The bullpen probably could have given up more if they needed to.
