Yankees @ Astros, 7/10/21

Stanton:

Ball, Ball, Ball, grounds into a double play.

That worked!

He should not be the setup man for a contending team because of his command issues.

This might be greedy, but I want some vaunting from the Astros’ offense, now.

Not a strike you schlub

Bottom 8

Straw:

Ball, Ball, called strike (was outside), foul, called strike three on a slider.

And it changed the entire at bat.

Fuck!

That 2-0 pitch to Straw was fucking horseshit and changed the whole AB and maybe inning

Maldonado:

Ball, called strike, Ball, swings through a sweeping slider, Ball, grounds out to SS.

Garcia:

Ball, called strike on a slider, swings at a low changeup (would have been ball two), swings at the exact same pitch for strike three.

I’m very glad I didn’t invest my evening in actually watching this whole game. The three times I’ve sat down and watched for a few minutes is exactly what I expected to see. A bunch of guys that look fully uninterested in winning a baseball game.

At least the shitty lulls are predictable, but man, what a pathetic effort against a guy who has really struggled recently.

This is embarrassing.

Fuck this ump.

Cole’s playing with a zone 15% bigger.

Also the Astros batters have been fucking putrid.

Nah. They just don’t play well against bad teams.

I really miss Diaz. He can’t come back soon enough.

I really don’t understand it. They go from 0 to 100, and then 100 to 0. It’s bizarre.

I’m missing Mike Brantley.

Well, we will probably see a Chapman-Altuve rematch in the 9th.
