World Series Game 1, October 28, 2022

Throw another one of those meat!

Just a base hit

Come on Diaz, find some grass!

Well, tomorrow is another day. Gotta win. But it’s damn hard to overcome this kind of self-inflicted gut punch.

Diaz had no chance

Tomorrow is another day… the Astros seem not to be able to win the 1st game of a world series

Pure fucking criminality.

Bottom of the 10th.

Robertson pitching. Sosa in for Bohm at 3rd.

Alvarez - lines curve foul down first base side, fouls off high FB to third base side, fouls off cutter, curve outside, fouls back high FB, swings and misses a curve in the dirt. K.

Bregman - swings early and misses on a slider, curve outside, fouls off slider, doubles off the wall over Schwarber in left.

Tucker - cutter low and outside, swing and miss on inside curve, fouls off curve, cutter low, swings and misses over a curve. K.

Gurriel - cutter in for strike, cutter outside, cutter outside, slider outside, slider outside. Walk.

Diaz (pinch hitting for Mancini) - curve wild pitch both runners move up. curve high and inside. curve inside hits Diaz, but ump says he leaned into it; swings and misses slider; grounds out 5-3.

Final Phillies 6 Astros 5.

Self immolation

Green light on 3-0 was a new kind of stupid.

There is no way the Astros win this series.

I’d fucking fire Dusty right now.

Yep

after three curves that were not close, including a wild pitch…

Two Ks on pitches that bounced and a freebie walk turned in to a groundout.

Fucking trash.

Fucking Verlander and Dusty.

You knew he was going to get nothing but breaking pitches out of the zone

Years from now, when they’ve completely assessed this era,(and we’ve seen all the ‘as told to’ stories about all the heinous shit that went down on many teams) the ‘stain’ on the Astros will not be cheating. It will be choking.

So much managerial incompetence in this one. It was a factory of moronic decisions.

Welp, that sucked. Just fuck em up tomorrow.

When is Hensley going to get his shot? All we needed was a fucking single and we send in Diaz who’s looked like hell at the plate for a month.
