ALCS: Yankees vs Astros (Non-Yankees Fan Version)

[fineyoungarm]

Game is moving a long at a pretty nice clip.

35 through 3 and Judge overmatched.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

I'm surprised Judge didn't try a swinging bunt there

 

[Al Zarilla]

Against Keuchel, all moving up in the box. Tonight, so far, the swinging bunt by Sanchez.

You can’t try to hit a swinging bunt. Well, you could try to hit just the top of the ball, but that would be impossible against ML pitching. It’s hard enough when you’re trying to hit the whole ball.

Hasn't made the adjustment

 

[InsideTheParker]

What is the town closest to Houston? Because Judge just swang at a pitch there.

 

[fineyoungarm]

Mary describing the taste of chocolate to a dieting Rhoda was quite wonderful.

As was any scene involving Ted and Lou.

Galveston - an I believe it's "swinged".

Ok, but what did he want to do, b/c his posture was odd then.

 

[Blue Monkey]

Really knocking the shit out of the ball

 

[fineyoungarm]

Failed swinging bunt by Gattis.

 

[Al Zarilla]

I’m sure he was trying to hit the ball 450 feet.

I always ask myself, what would John Smoltz say, and that's how I roll.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Three hits in the game ... all belong to the Yankees

 

[johnmd20]

Astros are toothless.

 

[Al Zarilla]

MFY couldn’t quite play a Bugs Bunny game here, but maybe P,C, one IF and one OF.

 

[Joe Shlabotnick]

Houston continues to suck.

 

[teddywingman]

So... nice No Hitter going on here.

 

[strek1]

Can one of these Houston clowns at least get on base?

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Astros are toothless.

Well, it is Texas

 

[E5 Yaz]

Can one of these Houston clowns at least get on base?

They did that

 

[fineyoungarm]

If CC still has it, why not Mike Scott?

 

[teddywingman]

"Yankees Suck" chant in Houston. Seems odd.

Lots of ex-pats from New England in Houston. Lots of ex-pats from everywhere in Houston.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Now would be a good time to end the no-hitter

 

[E5 Yaz]

Now would be a good time to end the no-hitter

And, by that, I mean the one Reddick is carving by himself

 

[fineyoungarm]

Now would be a good time to end the no-hitter

Severino is due to throw a no-hitter.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Severino is due to throw a no-hitter.

He's made the adjustments

 

[AimingForYoko]

Is there anyone on the astros bench who help them out?

 

[johnmd20]

Boom, boom, two outs in seconds.

 

[54thMA]

If CC still has it, why not Mike Scott?

That's quite a get up.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Is there anyone on the astros bench who help them out?

Their bench coach is a cooler

 

[Wingack]

Altuve is lost right now.

 

[Joe Shlabotnick]

Strike zone is massive.

 

[johnmd20]

ZOMG. A hit. Wait, what?

 

[patinorange]

Altuve is lost right now.

Lost? I prefer the term "massive choke"

 

[E5 Yaz]

Severino was due to throw a shutout

 

[54thMA]

ZOMG. A hit. Wait, what?

The Astors are not familiar with this term.

 

[strek1]

Severino is due to throw a no-hitter.

Thank you. At least that's off the table.

 

[AimingForYoko]

Awful

 

[fineyoungarm]

Thank you. At least that's off the table.

Sure.

 

[johnmd20]

Now 15 straight innings without a run. A season high, of course. Against the Yankees. Of course.

 

[Al Zarilla]

It’s a wonder Correa remembered which base to run to.

 

[Brand Name]

Tick, tock, goes the clock. Almost the 7th or 8th, when this thing is going to be over; that's a lock. Just slinking further into my couch. At this point, I accept my fate. The only remaining curiosities are the way the Yankee runs will be scored, in addition to asking who the inflicter and inflictee will be.

Shortstop is a base, right?

 

[fineyoungarm]

Yeah - Biggio looks like he is loving every minute of this.

 

[doc]

Who woke up Mystique and Aura

 

[johnmd20]

Verlander doing his best.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Yeah - Biggio looks like he is loving every minute of this.

“Get me a uniform, quick.”

Sanchez is behind the plate, so all we can hope for is Verlander's arm holds up and a walk, a wild throw to center, and a missed third strike for a run. It's a slim chance, I know.

 

[fineyoungarm]

If the Sox had snagged Frazier, the Yankees are only up 3 - 2.
