Tucker is a tough out. He's fouling off some good pitches.

His slider has very little horizontal movement right now.

That slider needed to be lower.

Feel like he should have known that he'd get nothing but curves.

Either our righties hit his sinker or our lefties hit the curveball. That's how we're gonna beat him. So far, not so good.

First one was a called strike right? That pitch was low.

He has the curve so far, but the slider hasn't been as good.

Yaz looked awful against McCullers in game 1. He hasn't thrown a curve yet I think. he'll go heavy curve against Grandal.

He's hittable so far, we need to score here.

McCullers leaving that slider over the plate so far.

Only 4 pitches through 3 batters isn't good...

Yoan sees McCullers better than the rest of the team.

Carlos does that all the time. He tries to throw strike 1 and doesn't go full effort on the first pitch or the game.

That was a good pitch to attack, TA just got under it.

The fears about this crowd were greatly exaggerated. They're still rowdy af today.

Had our starters just repeated their 1st innings this series we would have swept them already.

Alright now we gotta make sure he doesn't pull a Cease and lose all his adrenaline the rest of the game.

AMPED

Throw the slider. A fastball on 0-2 like that in the zone is risky.

99 There we fucking go

I'd play the infield in here against McCullers. Runs will come at a premium.

Crowd seems fine to me.

Altuve ambushed Carlos, just like some predicted.

Let's face it, if Carlos can't throw hard on the first pitch in front of a home crowd in the playoffs, his shoulder is fucked. If anything, the adrenaline alone should make him throw 95+.

What a throw by Kiermaier. Honestly, I thought going on Martinez's fly out to RF was a better bet than running on Kiermaier there with 1 out already. You don't have a whole lot to gain to get on third with 2 outs.
