OT: MLB Thread - Part XVIII: Home Stretch for Yanks. Coup de Grâce for Mets.

[Cassano]

See you in Spring Training

 

[LeetchisGod]

Game blouses.

 

[MysticLeviathan]

Game's over. I have zero confidence in this club, especially with the shit umpire.

 

[Raspewtin]

Correa and Altuve sleep walking were our only hope of winning this series.

Just not meant to be.

 

[mrmovies779]

Can't hang change ups tommy

 

[SRTtoZ]

Yea that's probably gonna do it with as bad as the Yankees are swinging tonight. Great run try again next year.

 

[MysticLeviathan]

Legitimately some of the worst home plate umpiring in such an important game. Umpire should never be in a postseason game.

Just wasn't meant to be. That Bregman play to get Bird is proof of that.

And it's on the Yankees for not doing their job last game. Houston's earned this.

 

[LeetchisGod]

Our bullpen is worn out. Not getting length from the starters catches up sooner or later.

 

[mrmovies779]

Hell of a season boys,keep your chins up

 

[LeetchisGod]

We traded for Gray. They traded for Verlander. Advantage Houston.

 

[Rangerfan4life90]

Also, I'm all in favor of automatic balls and strikes after the absolute horrendous f***ing umpiring job.

 

[Machinehead]

At the end of the day, getting outplayed by a better team.

We did well.

 

[mrmovies779]

Bad Tommy has shown up tonight lol

 

[Raspewtin]

We had absolutely no business getting here in the first place.

Honestly can't even be upset.

 

[MysticLeviathan]

At the end of the day, getting outplayed by a better team.

We did well.

Better team? Not sure. They have a couple better starters, but Charlie Morton isn't one of them. And our lineups are about even. Maybe Houston has a very slight edge. Bullpen heavy advantage to us.

Honestly can't even be upset.

I think we had plenty of business here but the Astros are better.

 

[LeetchisGod]

We need to add a couple of high average hitters to the lineup with better plate discipline. One to replace Castro.

 

[Machinehead]

The lineups aren't close to even. The Yankees strike out constantly, don't move runners over, don't get runners in, poor discipline. They hit homeruns.

Houston does all of that well and they hit homeruns. Pitching has been great for both teams. The competent offense is finding ways to score.

Where was said competent offense in games 1-5?

This has been up to this point an evenly played series which is why its at 7 games.

Thisump is killingme.

 

[MysticLeviathan]

Hanger right down the middle by Kahnle.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

too many change ups.

Now its over.

 

[mrmovies779]

Bad Tommy.Another hanging f***ing change up

 

[MysticLeviathan]

too many change ups.

Now its over.

Changeups aren't bad. But when they hang literally right down the middle, that's when they become a problem. McCann was way out in front, but it was in a location where he could keep it fair.

 

[LeetchisGod]

Our bullpen ran out of gas. We need more starters who can go deep into games.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Changeups aren't bad. But when they hang literally right down the middle, that's when they become a problem. McCann was way out in front, but it was in a location where he could keep it fair.

That was the 4th one in a row.

Too many is a problem, he was right on it.

 

[mrmovies779]

This series gives new meaning to "home field advantage" that's really what it comes down to.
