    Good drive by Zac Efron... but not deep enough

    These are MLB hitters. Throwing the same pitch down the pipe 3x in a row is just asking for it.

    Good for him because he (or maybe wife)was getting a lot of hate after the World Series last year.

    Strider in the post season... All 3 games against the Phillies

    0-3 (After today) 15 Innings, 9 ERs, 5.40 ERA

    Strider will have nightmares for life

    Looking up at the light blue sky will give him Philly PTSD

    If Alvarado pitched against Houston... he'd be smart to walk the 7th and 8th hitters with 2 outs to get to Maldy.

    Things are getting interesting......Acuna, bases loaded 2 outs. This could be it to keep their season alive

    I hate walks. Its the most infuriating thing in baseball. The only time you should walk someone is when a force out benefits you or you have a base open with the hottest hitter in the planet up. Any other purpose... they usually kill you.

    That catch looked easier than he made it out to be.

    That free run they didn’t take has to sting.

    I thought Acuna got that one.

    Yeah, I thought he was for sure going to park it.

    Pitchers were having trouble locating and he was due.
