GDT: 2023 ALCS: (3) Houston Astros vs. (5) Texas Rangers

[SwordsgoneWild]

Rangers are 2 out Runs galore this game.

 

[Ben Grimm]

Too aggressive.

 

[Halladay]

It is infuriating when a reliever has a multiple run lead and issues a leadoff walk.

 

[hockeyisgud]

Can you not challenge check swing?

Replay shows an extremely clear swing for the strike out

 

[punk_o_holic]

Playoff Pressly is magical. Great job despite the leadoff walk(although should have been strike 3)

Good job Javier, Brantley (old man with the speed), Alvarez, Dubon.

Back in the series although again tomorrow is a must win

Yeah a solo hr doesn't kill you but a multi run home run makes things interesting. Although to be fair, should have had a strike 3 on the check swing.

Need you to channel more of your playoff magic Urquidy. Huge game tomorrow my man. I have faith in you.

Easily one of the best relievers the franchise has had... Just due to his postseason play alone.. Love him.

Line ups






Brantley out , Doobie moved into the 2 hole, and Chas back in... I'm interested to see how Doobie does there..

Heaney vs Urquidy... I'm assuming Dunn will be backing him up as surely France will be on deck to come In for Urquidy if need be.,

 

[Halladay]

The Rangers might be done. 3-0 already.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

The Astros are just a road machine, truly something to behold.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Garcia homers and now Garver draws a walk.

 

[Halladay]

3-2 no, home team hasnt had lead in this series so far.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Seager ties it up!

 

[JWK]

Dusty asleep at the wheel?

 

[Halladay]

Just missed a grandslam.

And Abreu hits a 3 run home run. This rangers middle relief is not good enough.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

This Abreu resurrection is something else.

 

[EpochLink]

Oh dear.

Astros ass kicking the Rangers into submission

 

[southsideIrish]

Those guys - I swear, they're down in the series but it feels like it's over....

 

[Halladay]

If it is Phillies/Astros (I think it will be), the Phillies at home against the Astros on the road will be an unstoppable force against an unmovable object.

This team is downright silly... Trash at home , downright amazing on the road... It's...... not even worth bitching about anymore lol..

 

[punk_o_holic]

New series and back to having home field advantage....oh **** lol. Need another solid game by Verlander and need to figure out Montgomery. Or at least build his pitch count high while it's a close game. They've seen their bullpen alot.

They better pray Montgomery can go deep again because their BP might be shot.

Congrats on Stanek getting the W .... He threw 1 pitch lol.

Of course it's not over... This series is guaranteed to go back to Houston ( which has me worried lol) . Rags do need to win tomorrow though . Dropping 3 straight at home after being up 2-0 might be curtains.. Most teams would be mentally wrecked after that.............besides the 2019 Washington f***ing Nationals.

Line ups





Roof will be closed tonight.

Happy to see Dusty trot the same lineup out there again... Get to Montgomery early please.

 

[Halladay]

2 pitches on 2 outs and then a Bregman homerun. 1-0.

 

[Halladay]

The MLB umpiring this postseason has been terrible. No way this is the best they have, it is best to speed up the automation.
