Somebody had to do it?

I kinda thought I was the only one here, understandable if so!

Top 1st

Schwarber took 2 strikes, hit a very long foul, a couple balls, then K'd looking.

Hoskins

Ball inside, 1-0

Flies to center, 2 down.

Hard to tell on the broadcast but seemed pretty tame in the stadium up until JT had two strikes and even then it wasn't extremely loud.

Schwarber K-ed after hitting a 400' foul ball. Hoskins got under one to CF. Realmuto lined out to RF after the 3-1 pitch was called a strike even though it was a ball.

Well, was going to say this before the game, but THIS HAS BEEN ONE WEIRD YEAR.

You could have gotten long, long odds on this thread existing in June. Honestly, even 3 weeks ago we were all just thinking "great to get to the postseason, I hope they win a game".

The bot can't believe we're here!

Game 1 against the Cardinals being 3 weeks ago seems crazy. It feels like it was months ago at this point, so much has happened in such a short amount of time. I watched a recap video from MLB today or yesterday and there was so much in there that I had almost forgotten about. The Nick Castellanos game against Atlanta completely slipped out of my mind.

Ump called a couple strikes so far that sure looked like balls.

EastFallowfield 2022-10-29 00:17:49 UTC #11

Bottom 1st

Altuve K's swinging

el-pietro 2022-10-29 00:18:08 UTC #12

Crazy chase for strike 3. waaaaay out of the zone.

EastFallowfield 2022-10-29 00:20:07 UTC #13

They keep making a deal about Nola's wild card clinching win being the last time the Astros lost a game, but
they haven't played many of those 25 days since.

Pena K's looking.

el-pietro 2022-10-29 00:21:03 UTC #14

Clearly pitching around Alvarez, hasn't put a pitch in the zone yet.

EastFallowfield 2022-10-29 00:21:51 UTC #15

Alvarez walks, 1 on, 2 out

phillychuck 2022-10-29 00:21:56 UTC #16

Ump missed the first pitch to Alvarez which was a strike.

phillychuck 2022-10-29 00:22:28 UTC #17

Ump has a good rep as a ball-strike caller but seems to be off his game so far.

BostonRoss 2022-10-29 00:22:54 UTC #18

Yeah, JT should have walked

EastFallowfield 2022-10-29 00:23:12 UTC #19

Bergman pops up to third on a 1-1 pitch.

No score after 1.

EastFallowfield 2022-10-29 00:23:38 UTC #20

Do we have the bot warming up?
