re: ALDS Game 2: Astros 4, Royals 5 - Final

You may get caught stealing there, but you can't get picked off

Every one of those shift beaters were on pitches where the pitcher missed his spot.

Springer never saw the ball off the bat. 9 times out of 10 he gets that ball.

Royals played better than the Astros tonight. Key here though is the Astros are still producing runs without Gattis and Correa really swinging the bat well.

Sunday will be fun. I'm wearing my Rasmus inspired ski goggles to the game.

Go Royals

We took care of what we needed to accomplish at a minimum. Head back to Houston for 2 already having a win under our belt. The Royals weren't just gonna roll over and die. Still it stings to get off to a hot start today only to have the bullpen blow the lead and see the offense get completely shut down from the middle innings forward.

On the positive(ish) side...had we won today I think we were going to hear an endless feed of oh the Royals are down 0-2. Going to face the possible Cy Young winner who was 15-0 at home and can close it out. That puts an insane amount of pressure on Keuchel and probably motivates the Royals against him.

I really don't think the bullpen was that bad today... a couple very soft hit balls that fell in the right spots. The walk by fields sucked, but other than that they were pretty decent

I mean it sucks we let one go after being up 4-1, but you have to feel good that you took one of two and can potentially wrap it up at Minute Maid.

Geaux Stros!!!

You can find me in the Club (section) on Sunday!!!

I will pull for the Stros if they win mate

Someone needs to go on and start the thread for today.
