White Sox vs. Astros ALDS thread

And to think they got LaRussa to get them over that hump…..hopefully it’s just a little bump in the road for them?

Was a strange choice to start Lynn who has been ass in Houston his whole career I think. But I think they wanted Gio going game 2 for insurance, he's dominated Houston. Either way they need better at bats. Gotta start thining about hitting it the other way, too many shoulders flying open today.

Agreed the offense needs to step it up……it seemed they were starting to hit to opposite fields a bit better ending the season but overall the offense was crap.

Well that truly sucked! Must win tomorrow…

Lucas, the big stage awaits…

I missed yesterdays game and apparently was a good one to miss lol

going to be watching today. Raining outside already finished work and don’t have shit to do

Only 2-1 so far but this team looks totally lost. Unprofessional at bats and scared, out of position defense.

 

[Montucky]

This at bat by Abreu is a pivotal one. One out, two on, the heart and soul of the team at the plate. Momentum swings in the direction of whoever wins this at bat.

 

[Montucky]

Huge.

 

[ZOMBIE@CTESPN]

Making noise now baby

 

[Leomaz]

We need more though

 

[Montucky]

Giolito is such a headcase.

 

[ZOMBIE@CTESPN]

Pitching about to **** us

 

[Montucky]

Walks were the one thing they could not do up two runs and of course that's what they did.

Fudge

Giolito is such a headcase.

No playoff experience. Going down 0-1 he pitched SCARED!

Kerry Wood said back in the day in that Marlins elimination loss after the Bartman game he was shaking on the mound cause he was so nervous and couldn't relax.

Larussa was total dogshit in the 5th.

Not having anyone up in the pen to start the 5th was terrible managing, as was going to Crochet after he threw 26 pitches yesterday.

Crochet pitched back to back games twice this year, gave up 1 run the first time and 2 the second.

And to think they brought LaRussa in for these situations because Ricky couldn’t handle it

He pitched an absolute gem in the playoffs last year.

Robert is so unbelievably talented. The game is so easy for him, you never know how guys will react to the pressure of the postseason but he has not even blinked. It would really be a shame not to win a title with him.

Well this is the problem when your starter cant even go five full. Giolito got four runs of support, he should have been able to give the Sox five innings with a lead.
