At least he's hitting 7th today instead of 8th.

He was great last year. But he spent a lot of the off-season bulking up and speeding up his swing. Quero tried to do the same and it totally killed his performance at the plate. On top of the injuries, I'm afraid that Teel might fall into the same trap.

Way to come back and get him

Hicks getting wild again

We got a lucky bounce on Colson's strikeout so it evens out I guess.

Chase is way too inconsistent. He looked like the best hitter on this team when he got hot a few weeks ago. Now he looks like the worst.

Got gifted a free base runner and couldn't do s%*#.

Teel trying to hit everything to the Dan Ryan

Meidroth is the one guy you expect to be able to make contact there.

Jesus Christ Chase...

Well that was unfortunate. Peters killed that.

It was. Colson nearly screwed that up by trying to complain about the call first.

Uh ok lol

Yeah nothing Colson can do with the 2 groundball singles we gave up. The positioning and pitch selection/execution aren't matching up

Yup, home runs win in the playoffs because stringing together hits is hard against good pitching. It's easier to make one mistake than to make 3. One of this team's issues is that they aren't good against elite pitching.

Hicks sweeper is not working.

Plan is probably for him to face the bottom of the order.

They don't see him well to begin with. The poor visibility just makes it worse.

Bell could not see Hudson at all.

Wasted a double. Miguel had to at least move the runner there.

Those were some terrible swings from Miguel.

There we go Sam. Feels like that's the only way Sam has been able to get extra base hits recently.

That was a few enough pitches that you can have Hudson at least start the 2nd.

Kinda sucks we got relegated to NBCSN because of a college football game.

Astros lose. Ginkel strikes out the side on all breaking balls.
