Im in the same boat with you. I think Verlander gets them the win tomorrow but dodgers get the last 3 games.

that would mean LA winning 3 in a row in Houston. HIGHLY unlikely

Yep it was me!

But in all seriousness, there is a huge debate among coaches what is worse, leadoff walks or 2 out walks. I contend 2 out walks are worse. Other people may not agree.

I would be one who would disagree. Lead off walks are the worst! Guys who lead off with a walk score 38% of the time. I promise you that a 2 out walk doesnt come close to that.

Of course... it is fricking stupid to walk Chris Taylor regardless of the number of outs when Seager is coming up. Just a bad mistake by Verlander.

I dont blame Rich Hill for being pissed about being pulled in the 5th. He was pitching extremely well and it was just 1-0.

Apparently Verlander is human
