I've been saying this since that first series in Houston: to beat this Houston team we gotta get their starters out early, even if we don't hit them that well, cause we can hit their pen.

We've had quite a few duck snorts the last 3 innings.

Astros bullpen is ass outside of him. They probably don't want us scoring anymore.

Open or closed, Grandal's hit wouldn't have been a homer in any stadium except maybe Coors. He hit it hard, but not hard enough to hit it out with a 20 degree launch angle.

That was all about timing. He should have read the room. You can make that trade when the other team isn't in the opposing dugout. IIRC, they had also just came back against them the night before. Just really bad timing.

I remember when Jake Lamb came within 5 feet and a really nice play from Taylor Trammel from walking him off.

Yeah easy to look good when the other team has a 98% win expectancy.

Well, the good thing is that their 2nd best reliever won't be available tomorrow and also looked like crap.

He needed to be a bit more under that one to hit it out. He got the exit velo, just a bit low on the launch angle.

Fuck he tagged that one, just right to CF

Yaz WTF are you looking for? You won't get a better pitch than that.

Am I hearing Let's go White Sox from the crowd?

We didn't get shutout!

Even if he was pitching like he did in June and July? He would be the Cy Young favorite had he been healthy. He definitely would have gotten the game 1 start.

This is where not having a healthy Rodon really hurts. Rodon throwing 99 in game 1 and Gio going game 2 would have put us in a much better spot.

He does the Bulls games.

Graveman is in. At least we got Dusty to use him in a 6 run game.

Yeah he looked like he was dumbfounded in the 2nd inning.

Well at least Crochet has shown he can get lefties out.

Gotta wonder what would have happened to the 2016 Cubs had the Mets won the WC game instead of SF.

That didn't really cost us a run since Meyers singled after anyways. I think the wild pitch in the third followed by a grounder to score the run is way more 2021 White Sox.

He's the guy who said earlier in the year not to worry about not hitting home runs. If anything, he's probably the one preaching to these guys to hit it on the ground.

I didn't get to see it cause FS1 decided to show a Geico commercial during it.

Gavin should have swung at that 2-0 pitch. Easily the best pitch he got that AB.

It's weird cause we didn't really strike out. We just didn't hit anything hard until this inning.
