Frelick got all of that.. and almost hit it to the wall in the shortest part of the park.

You gotta be kidding me 

[RobertCrawley]

Bull)(*&%.

Not sure I can continue to watch the jackass of an umpire any longer

What a joke this ump is.

I don't think its much of a stretch to say we will struggle to score without help in the playoffs.

The one thing that the Astros generally excel at is being able to scratch out enough offense against high level pitching in the playoffs.

My biggest concern is the Brewers going into a prolonged offensive slump in the next few weeks.

[yfinn6]

Probably a ball but you're fully aware at this point the ump is going to be giving Gray the edges so that's more on Haase, in my opinion.

[Brewcrew82]

Time for Murphy to get tossed.

Frelick IS among the "weakest" hitters in MLB,  but he didn't get all of that one.  Good angle, missed the sweet spot.

What are they since the Yelich injury?  Genuinely would like to know.   They also seem to score all their runs in one or two innings.   Probably isn’t the case just seems like it.  

Even better than their season averages. They're #5 in wRC+

I was mainly joking... I haven't seen him get "all of one" for several months.

I’ll never understand this.  It’s a ball.  He swings he probably does nothing with it

It was borderline. It wasn't like it was in the left hand batters box.

Why the hell is this bum hitting 3rd.

I came in here to ask this very question!

[GoondockSaint]

I don't know what's more annoying, this ump or that woman in the stands yelling so loud for the Cardinals. Man she's a banshee.

I so wanted them to go get Josh Bell.

Ashby and Hall are going to be fun to watch in the closing stretch here.

Why did they not? Asking price too high?

I think the Dbacks got them for a low-level minor leager

[yfinn6]

Seems like Goldy misjudged it a bit. 

C'mon Perk

Ok.  It’s go time
