Schwarboss!!!!

 

[brandonchristensen]

What a rip.

 

[LogansDad]

Bregman is so damn good

 

[brandonchristensen]

Jesus Bregman makes those look easy.

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

Schwarber is a heck of a postseason player

 

[derekson]

Harper just a bit in front there

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Barksdale sucks

 

[Ed Hillel]

That’s a hbp

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

That sumbitch's arm was in the fuggin strike zone!

 

[JOBU]

What the hell is this challenge?

 

[derekson]

Yeah, it was over the plate. It's not about making an attempt...

 

[JOBU]

Schwarber is a heck of a postseason player

He’s got more home runs this year than Bobby D has in his entire career

 

[LogansDad]

He was in the strike zone, lol

 

[Ed Hillel]

Yeah, it was over the plate. It's not about making an attempt...

It was 6-8 inches inside. Check out the box on original airing.

Still so annoyed the Sox didn’t sign him. Just a fun guy to watch play.

 

[InsideTheParker]

Please DP here. I hate that the Astros might benefit from that crowding the plate crap. Par for the course for them. Oh, OK, no DP.

 

[HurstSoGood]

Bullshit weaksauce with the elbow armor and complete lack of an attempt to get out of the way. He was over the plate, never moved his legs or torso and practically watched the ball into his safely protected elbow pad. Complete garbage.

 

[Deweys New Stance]

Can time Maldonado running the bases with a sundial.

 

[LogansDad]

It was 6-8 inches inside. Check out the box on original airing.

Yeah Gameday has it clearly inside, so I stand corrected

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

That Pena kid is tough.

 

[Ale Xander]

Altuve is just a bit faster than Maldonado

 

[Ed Hillel]

Wow great baserunning

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Pena is so good

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Peña is MVP if Houston wins this.

 

[Ed Hillel]

That Pena kid is tough.

BlackBear Power

 

[LogansDad]

Pena is an absolute superstar

 

[derekson]

Really hate this.

This isn’t Robbie Ray.

 

[InsideTheParker]

Yeah, Altuve and Pena are good, but any run that scores here is the "fruit of the poisonous tree" of the BS lean into the pitch by Maldonado. I do not like the Astros.

Right over the Batter’s Box line, that’s a legit hbp. Honestly, it’s the best strategy against someone blasting you inside with 2 seamers. Crowd the plate.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Yeah, Altuve and Pena are good, but any run that scores here is the "fruit of the poisonous tree" of the BS lean into the pitch by Maldonado. I do not like the Astros.

That makes at least two of us, ITP.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Lefty makes it so tempting to steal home

 

[phrenile]

No need.

 

[JOBU]

That ball was fucken nutted

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Fruit of the poisonous tree.

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

That was crushed!

 

[Deweys New Stance]

Good night Irene

 

[Ed Hillel]

Wow, what a fucking blast

 

[LogansDad]

Yeah, Altuve and Pena are good, but any run that scores here is the "fruit of the poisonous tree" of the BS lean into the pitch by Maldonado. I do not like the Astros.

I don't really think he leaned into it, at least not the way Diaz did the other day. Also, crowding the plate like that has its drawbacks, as Maldanado wouldn't have been able to hit anything over the inside part of the plate. Wheeler just missed his spot.

Annnnnd fuck. Yordan strikes again.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

That was absolutely destroyed

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

Dayum

 

[shawnrbu]

70 pitches for Wheeler. What are we doing here?

 

[InsideTheParker]

Oh, well. I'm going to bed. Hasn't Alvarado stunk lately?

 

[staz]

oops

 

[McBride11]

Uh holy shit how far did that go

 

[Comfortably Lomb]

Alvarez is so awesome.

 

[CarolinaBeerGuy]

Absolute bomb

 

[patinorange]

Hate the pitching change. Oh well.

 

[OurF'ingCity]

Not sure I’ve ever seen someone hit it ABOVE the batters eye.

 

[Max Power]

Alvarado and Dominguez are gassed.
