World Series Game 1, October 28, 2022

Still got two.

Altuve has made half the outs in this game.

He should have listened.

Bottom of the 2nd.

Nola pitching.

Tucker - FB outside, FB strike, change up gets lifted over the right field fence. HR!!!

Gurriel - singles to center.

Mancini - FB/sinker low outside corner strike, same pitch just a bit lower for a ball, fouls off FB, breaking ball way outside, swings and misses a breaking ball way outside. K.

McCormick - breaking ball low and outside, breaking ball drops in for a strike, dumps an inside FB into right field for a single. Gurriel to 3rd.

Maldonado - looks at FB strike at top of zone, changeup low, swings and misses over a curve, fouls off curve, fouls off high FB, grounds a single through the right side vacated by 2b with McCormick breaking. Gurriel scores. McCormick to 3rd.

Altuve - grounds into 6-4-3 DP.

End 2. Phils 2. Astros 2.

Altuve is fucking infuriating me.

Three would have been nicer

Of course. Altuve needs to think going to right field.

And that was a meatball, belt high right down the middle of the plate.

That is what it looked like on gameday.

I was lost, but now I’m found! Thanks VirtualBob!

A bunt literally anywhere but to the pitcher scores a run.

Altuve just can’t be counted on. Hopefully he snaps out of it soon.

I was erroneously posting in the World Series thread.

JV is feeling it tonight… Good to see the 'Stros putting up a crooked number even though Altuve is still scuffling…

Just finished dinner. Why not have Altuve bunt there?

Alright boys, back to work

Go get that man some runs!

You don’t bunt your way into those sweet H‑E‑B endorsements.

Top of the 3rd.

Verlander pitching.

Stott - FB high and outside, FB strike, fouls off a couple of FB, looks at high FB, swings and misses at another FB.

Segura - swings and misses a FB, fouls off FB, bounces curve to third 5-3.

Marsh - fouls off FB, fouls off FB, drops a curve in for a called strike 3. K.

Mid 3. Phils 0. Astros 2.

JV is off to a nice start. Let’s fuckin’ score him some runs!
