    Yeah. Reminds of the Rockets always blowing leads in the third quarter of games. Not trying to tack on even more scoring and put the nail in the coffin; just trying to keep the lead even while the lead is dwindling. Astros sure play like a team that thinks their pitchers will never give up more than a run, so they just need to get a little more than that.

    I would think our BABIP reverts up to the mean, and we start scoring some runs. If we never get the offense going for whatever reason in the playoffs, some of the blame should go to our approach versus the regular season. It just seems a little off still

    Shocking that Sanchez's check swing didn't fall in for a double.

    Bregman keeps doing that supremely annoying thing where he takes the first pitch no matter what so he's automatically down 0-1 every time.

    Yes but everything i said is true so far. If we lose tonight it’s over. Looks like the Astros are playing with your sense of urgency.

    Everything would be true if it wasn’t a seven game series

    I genuinely wish I had your optimism. It would make being a fan a tad less taxing.

    I said “so far”

    Also, if we lose tonight it’s over. That is true too.

    So there going to get 2 innings of our bullpen tonight. Im assuming they get Smith/Harris? Lord, I hope we can put up a few runs before I have to see Harris pitching against the Yanks.

    Don't give him anything to hit on 0-2.

    Graphic showed Maybin was “purchased” by the Yankees.
