That's Brett Gardner.

Verlander throwing a hell of a game, eight innings and one run with a dozen k. I'd go to the pen though, dont get greedy.

what kind of shit throw was that by DD?

He was out by a mile by an easy throw.

Gregorius needed to be in better position to throw the ball to the plate. At that point you have to sacrifice the guy going into second.

This game is very similar to last night's Cub game.

I'm not which has been more of a theme of the post season: mound visits or cheap home runs. They're both equally annoying.

Vintage Verlander, saving his fastest pitches for the later innings. Going away from the off-speed pitches and throwing it by hitters 3rd/4th time through the lineup. Great game by JV, but it'll be for (mostly) nought if the Astros don't pull out the win.

124 pitches. He could easily go 150. Old school hoss.

Reddick/Gigante/Correa due up for Houston vs Chapman bottom of 9th. Don't think Verlander's going to Jack Morris in the 91? World Series it and come back out for the 10th, if the Astros can't walk it off.

Even in his 9th inning Yankees hitters wanted no part of him. That is a stallion.

Altuve has some serious top hand. Turns around 100 like it was nothing.

Why isn't Altuve on 2nd base already.

Nice Just hope verlander is straight for next start..season high in pitches. Great game

Post subject:	Re: MLB Postseason 2017
runners interference on the throw is the argument. still just ease the ball into the catchers mitt there and he's out easily at home.

Post subject:	Re: MLB Postseason 2017
i guess i can see that on the reply. catcher just had to pick it up and tag the guy out.

And the first thing Girardi does is go out and beg for a call. I fucking hate replay.

this Altuve guy is scary. I dont know if the 3b coach sent him or not, but he was like fuck you i'm going to win this game. and he did.

That was on Judge. He didn't think Altuve was going home and made a sluggish throw.

Houston is loaded but the bullpen seems vulnerable. May not matter though with all that offense.
