Astros @ Yankees, 5/9/2024

Nice hustle

It is, but that starts by not allowing the guys in front of him to reach.

Yainer has some nice wheels.

JLo with an infield single, but Yainer has to hold at 2B

I donā€™t know whether he forgot where the SS was or didnā€™t think he could neat a throw anyway

Wasnā€™t sure. Ball to his right, gotta make sure.

As infinitely unlikeable as Soto is, heā€™s a damn good hitter.

Itā€™s the donkeys behind him youā€™ve got to keep from doing damage, Soto is going to get on base.

Iā€™d much rather him be sure than get gunned down at third in that situation.

Altuve with a single. Bases loaded, one out for Tuckerā€¦

Huge opportunity with runners in scoring position for Tucker.

Tucker down on strikes

Swung at ball four.

Takes a bunch of close pitches only to chase garbage 3-2.

Alvarez flies out.

So the Astros go double, single, deep fly ball, single, but canā€™t turn that into a run.

3-0

Thatā€™s as fucking pathetic as it can possibly get.

Tucker and Yordan left a little to be desired that inning

Welp, bye lead. It was nice knowing you.

And yet people wonder why this team canā€™t win.

That perfectly encapsulates the Astrosā€™ offense this season. They had a chance to break the game open and canā€™t get the job done with runners in scoring position.
