WS Game Four: Astros v. Nationals, live thread
« on: October 27, 2019, 12:07:06 am »
Time to see whether the Astros' bullpen game works against the Nats' fourth starter Patrick Corbin.

And, whether the Astro pen working hard enough Friday night leaves it vulnerable tonight, while the Nats pen not having to work so hard (even with the loss) proves an advantage if Corbin falters.

And, whether the Nats remember that heavy traffic with obstructions home does nothing but gum up the works and make Dupont Circle resemble the Daytona 500.

And, whether the Astros continue looking as alive at the plate as they looked Friday night, when they looked very alive and well.

Game Four about to get underway . . .

Thank God, the STROS are using the bullpen tonight.

Buddy, I live in Las Vegas. I have the game on the tube. (Well, the big screen.)  wink777

And how about the Astros nailing four straight singles for once in this set . . .

He keeps this shit up and Corbin won't last two innings. 

Lucky him, he turned the DP 6-3.

Nice step-and-throw by Rendon to end the inning but the Astros open with a 2-0 advantage . . .

Thank God for Anthony Rendon's leather that inning.

Kept a run from scoring by smothering that shot 5 ft to his right, and then starting the 5-3 double-play.

Rendon hits a hard line single with two out . . . Soto hits one hard on the line but right to Bregman . . .

2-0 Astros after one full . . .

Three and three for Corbin and snickerings from the Astro dugout when Urquidy tried to---I hate to swear in front of ladies---hit.  :laugh: Springer was still having a chuckle as he checked in at the plate before grounding out for the side.

2-0 Astros, middle second.

A little hit support would be nice.  Oh well, Corbin's back to the mound....

A solid diving stab and throw by Rendon off Altuve's leadoff smash . . . a pop out and strikeout to follow . . . and that's the side.

2-0 Astros, middle third . . .

Spinning catch by Correa out from shortstop strands Yan Gomes on third to retire the side . . . the Nats' trouble with men in scoring position continues . . .

Robinson Chirinos hits a hanging changeup for a two-run homer half way up the left field bleachers. 4-0 Astros, hitting in the top of the fourth . . .

The Astros push Jake Marisnick as far as third but can't get him home, Altuve tries a sneak bunt but gets thrown out for the side.

But the Astros still lead it 4-0 in the middle of the fourth . . .

Naw, I'm fine.  I'm on this Series because of the Diamondbacks in the Nats and the Stros.  We didn't have a good year because of the folks we traded off last year.  We sure did save a lot of money, though!
