I believe that was the ghost 1919 White Sox who played in a cornfield.
Bat
10:16
Seemed like kind of a lazy tag by Correa.
Craig Edwards
10:16
not everyone can be Javy Baez, who is good at tagging if you have not yet heard.
Evan
10:16
Astros have a train so Pujols would have somewhere to aim.
Uncle Jimbo
10:17
MLB made the Cubs forfeit home field advantage in the 1984 playoffs due to not having lights.  That sucked.

@Evan: why must you open up those wounds?

I'm assuming Maeda will be unavailable tomorrow night, so who bridges the gap between Wood and Jansen if they have a lead? I dont think they'd have Wood go too deep
Craig Edwards
10:21
Depends on the situation. Assuming you don't use Jansen tonight, you only need to make it to the eighth. 4 from wood, then stripling, cingrani, morrow or something like that gets you to the end of the game.

More over-managing.  Maeda, a starter used to going 6 or 7, was cruising and there is no logical reason to take him out.
Craig Edwards
10:23
he hasn't gone six or seven in quite some time.
Evan
10:23
It's kind of funny how everyone remembers Beltran hitting all those home runs for the Astros when the Cardinals won and Pujols hitting that home run when the Astros won.
Craig Edwards
10:23
I remember Edmonds' home run more than Beltran's great series.
Netflix and Rich Hill

Maeda doesn't throw 95 when he's planning on going 7.
K-Man
10:24
Maeda probably didn't warm up like he would for a start
Craig Edwards
10:25
that reddick just keeps getting hits. he must hate the dodgers or something.
Garrett
10:25
This probably won’t happen but would you agree with going with Verlander for 2-3 innings tonight. Then maybe another 2-3 innings in game 5 or something like that. Seems like 6 innings from Verlander in two different games is more valuable than 6 innings in one game.
Craig Edwards
10:26
maybe if the game were tied and the team was going to go down 3-1 or something like that, but when you are winning and have verlander lined up for game 6, that seems pretty ideal.
Turner Ward
10:27
Dodgers seem to be making contact but can't find any holes. Is this just bad luck? Or have the Astros been able to induce weaker contact from Dodgers hitters?
Craig Edwards
10:27
they've made some pretty hard contact. bad at bat in the highest leverage situation of the game didn't help.
TKDC
10:27
Move the bat!
Craig Edwards
10:27
somebody is already alerting sam miller on twitter I'm sure.

The train above left field is because the concourse out there was built on an old train station. A little bit of local symbolism I guess.
Hunky Dory
10:28
Speaking of Beltran, his whole saga is "best postseason hitter/just wants a ring."  Will that ring mean anything to him, now that he's old and frail and glued to the bench, watching young stars win it for him?
Craig Edwards
10:28
yes. it will mean a lot to him.

Where's JT Snow when you need him
Craig Edwards
10:29
nice callback
not to earlier in this chat, to quite some time ago.
J Rich
10:29
He's the grizzled old vet that every young player on this team goes to for advice. He'll love a ring if it happens.

When you spend every day for 6 months with the same guys, it matters no matter how big your role was.
Craig Edwards
10:30
the bat was lava, guys.

It seems unfair they made you do this chat by yourself.
Craig Edwards
10:31
It's Friday, seems unfair to make multiple people do it, plus I'm just at home enjoying myself. Earlier today, I carried three window ac units down to flights of stairs to storage so this is way better than that.
Jesse
10:31
Sullivan did the whole Nats-Cubs Game 5 chat by himself.
Puig Truther
10:32
They should have a chute to automatically take the bats back to the dugout. Bowling alley style
Craig Edwards
10:32
i see no flaws in this plan.
Bert
10:32
That was a nightmare for him though
JB
10:33
Would you agree with Joe Buck that Pettis has had a good postseason? His sends in the Yankees series seemed to me overly aggressive and only worked because Sanchez dropped the ball. An example of poor process good results IMO
Craig Edwards
10:33
in the moment I disagreed with that one, but understand it better after taking another look given the situation.
Uncle Jimbo
10:34
Why did you carry the window unit a/c down?  That is what the balcony is for.  Pitch it over.
