Please get a damn run here! Let Pressly go for the save in the 9th. Plus we'd have a shot at Harper not getting another at-bat.
Which is why this game is so critical. The Phillies are treating this almost like a Game 7. They're using everyone out of the bullpen.
We've still got Stanek, Montero, and Pressly. We've got plenty of arms. All we need is one run. Manufacture it if you have to. Challenge their...
Great job by Neris! Now the top of the order has to get us the lead.
Yeah, they never cut to the Astros bullpen til after Harper was already at the plate.
Now our bullpen needs to outlast theirs.
Uh, no. Verlander's done for the night.
Yes. I think that happened in Game 1 of the ALCS. It was tied in the 6th when Verlander left the game and then Yuli and Chas hit homers.
Start Garcia or Urquidy in Game 5, Dusty. Assuming we get there.
I hope Verlander gets it together. Cuz they nearly batted around that inning. He'll be facing 9-1-2 in the 5th.
Big inning here for Verlander. Don't let them back into the game.
Yeah, he's out. But he did advance the runner.
We (literally) love Altuve. We're just frustrated and shocked at how bad he's looked at the plate. And stunned that the Astros continue to thrive...
I never thought I'd see the day where I was more confident in a Maldy at-bat then an Altuve one.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but he doesn't have an RBI yet in the postseason, right?
Geez, Jose! Just give us a sac fly!
Great first inning by Verlander. It's key to get Harper up in the 2nd leading off with no one on base.
He better not be with that contract.
I think he said "streaming" instead of "gleaming". Where's Mo Cheeks when you need him?
But not extremely cold weather. Didn't his back tighten up on him in Game 1 of the 2005 World Series in Chicago?
