Altuve ruined the inning.
After Diaz got on, I have lots of questions about that inning
If you have Siri on 2B with no outs, you can change your approach. Have Castro bunting instead of swinging away to move Siri to 3B. Then Altuve and Brantley can take different approaches too. The execution may not have panned out anyway, but leaving Siri at 1B against a catcher who has thrown out 2 of 43 runners all season is a terrible fucking move and completely inexcusable.
Yes.
He never seemed to consider they wouldn’t throw him a FB.
Even when they didn’t.
His approach sucks.
If any of the three that followed Diaz got a hit it would have been a different inning. They all left Siri on base.
Exactly. Siri was brought in for one purpose, to steal 2B with nobody out.
Think I would have left Siri in the game in center and moved Tucker to right
Fuck
Well that’s that
Ballgame
Well the good news is Bregman leads off the 9th
Right down the fucking middle.
Check please. See you tomorrow.
They get so close then decide to shit the bed. Ugh
Threw a cookie down the middle and he didn’t miss it.
Astros will get a run this next inning, just one.
When was the last time an Astro hitter not named Alvarez did that?
When was the last time he did that?
That was strike 3 to Castro.
Altuve in the seventh inning of game 2.
