    We would do better putting a midget in the box with instructions to not swing.

    Are they staying away from Maldy to pitch to Altuve?

    Maldy should lead off. Has the superior eye these days.

    If he wasn’t slower than a one legged sloth sigh.

    If Maldy was faster he would have been safe the 3rd base man had move some to get the ball

    The hitters are choking.

    our only hit since philly made it 5-3 was a grounder to the pitcher. 1 for 11

    But the top of the order doesn't start til Pena. They will already have 1 out.

    Manfred should institute the designated runner. One per team. He starts 2 feet behind the batter and runs on contact.

    He has been using his bullpen a lot so the wheels have to fall off at some point

    I get that Mancini beat cancer & I'm rooting for him, but not if it comes at the expense of the team at the biggest stage. We need to give Hensley a shot at this point, let the kid show what he can do.
