GDT: 2017 ALCS: (2) Houston Astros vs (WC1) New York Yankees

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Reddick continues his total choke.

Altuve with a single! 3-0!

 

[robert terwilliger]

maybe we start limiting visits before the tethering system is hooked up?

"look gary, the first 400 visits are fine but we're trying to play game 2 here so let's get a move on"

 

[Belieber]

I've never seen so many weak fly balls.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Just overpowers Judge.

Sanchez up as tying run...

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Really poor Sanchez swing on 3-0. What was that?

 

[robert terwilliger]

sanchez swung 3-0 because he was expecting mccann to make another couple trips to the mound before the 3-0.

it's what he would have done.

 

[Reality Check]

And just like that, we're starting to pump the brakes on the Yankees bandwagon.

Verlander is doing what he does against the Yankees and Houston's offense is finally coming to life. They were too good all season long not to show up.

I still like the Yankees position if this hits a game 7 tomorrow. But Judge and Sanchez may need to show up outside Yankees stadium for once.

 

[robert terwilliger]

macklin you son of a bitch.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Verlander wiggles out of a jam again.

 

[robert terwilliger]

astros are going to need outs from someone not named keuchel, verlander or giles tonight.

Yeah it's time for the pick a name out of a hat and hope that guy has it philosophy. I'm guessing that's why Peacock's the first man out.

Came to life for one inning but then they died again with Chad Green. Clearly someone died and made the Yankees' staff Koufax, Drysdale, Osteen and Perranoski 1965 Dodgers style.

And oh lookie another Houston bullpen meltdown incoming. I don't get why they're looking to rush Giles into the game though, he's basically become BK Kim cica 2001.

 

[Reality Check]

Verlander must feel he is on the Tigers again with this bullpen.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Didi flies out on a 3-1 pitch. 2 down.

And that one inning might just be enough. You'll take it if it gets you to a winner take all game.

Let us not forget several Yankees fans writing them off with the prospect of facing Kluber again in ALDS game 5. Especially with old man Sabathia on the hill.

 

[GIN ANTONIC]

Peacock makes a great pitch to strike out Sanchez. 3-1 with astros coming up in the 8th

 

[NJDevs26]

lol that was a how the **** did he get out of that inning? A near circus catch by Gonzalez, Didi popping out on 3-1 and getting Sanchez after nearly losing him from 0-2.

 

[Machinehead]

Extremely stupid to bring in Robertson who hasn't been sharp at all.

 

[Reality Check]

Hello Koufax...Meet Babe Ruth

 

[GIN ANTONIC]

Astros rolling in the 8th. Altuve with a cheapo one handed hr a la Frazier the other night and then Correa smacks a double to left.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Yanks should probably take Robertson out. He'll be needed tomorrow one would think.

 

[TorMenT]

Nice, game 7's are always fun

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Sanchez drops another ball at the plate. Wow.

6-1.

 

[robert terwilliger]

man, if only gary sanchez was as good at catching throws home as he is at visiting the mound during at-bats, the yankees would probably be in the world series.

 

[GIN ANTONIC]

You're making it sound like it was the craziest inning of baseball since the 7th inning twilight zone of the Jays v Rangers in 2015. An impressive catch followed by a pop up on a 3-1 count and a K after going up 0-2 in the count isn't exactly the thing of legend.

Anyway, Astros blow it open on a Bregman triple. Sanchez can't catch a ball... again
