GDT 11/3/22 Houston Astros (Verlander) @ Philadelphia Phillies (Syndergaard)

[Brashin]

If tonight isn't our night, I think we're done, Top of the order has got to make something happen next inning

[kikutaro]

Yuli Gurriel

Pitching Change: Seranthony Dominguez replaces Jose Alvarado.
Called strike (89.9 mph cutter)
Ball (98.4 mph cutter)
Swinging strike (98.7 mph four-seam fastball)
In play, no out (90.3 mph slider)

Yuli Gurriel doubles (1) on a fly ball to center fielder Brandon Marsh.

[el-pietro]

Surprised Seranthony is in here. Feels like a good spot for Eflin.

[LoneStarPhan]

Don't have to hit the ball hard to get a hit. At least the Astros don't.

I also wondered at Dominguez in the seventh. Guess we have Hand and Robertson for later in the game.

[kikutaro]

David Hensley

Ball (98.4 mph sinker)
Swinging strike (90.4 mph slider)
Foul (91.2 mph slider)

In play, out(s) (90.3 mph slider)

[bkeich]

Almost need a strikeout here. SD is a fly ball pitcher, and a fly ball here would be terrible.

[kikutaro]

Chas McCormick

Swinging strike (90.5 mph slider)
Ball (90.9 mph slider)
In play, out(s) (91.1 mph slider)

Seranthony stays in until Alvarez comes up, then bring in Robertson?

Ball (91. mph slider)
Ball (90.3 mph slider)
Ball (98.5 mph four-seam fastball)
Called strike (98.9 mph four-seam fastball)

[kikutaro]

Foul (90.6 mph slider)
In play, no out (98.3 mph sinker)

Jeremy Pena singles on a ground ball to right fielder Nick Castellanos. Jose Altuve to 3rd.

[LoneStarPhan]

Not looking good. If the Astros score more here, the task to come back becomes much harder.

Bringing Dominguez back to start the 8th fails measurably.

[Patchmk88]

Bats are just putting too much pressure on our pitchers.
