Cobra Commander Posted October 20, 2022 Posted October 20, 2022 (edited) Wasn’t all that bad a night for the Yankees hitters when they made contact if one uses the “Ball off bat %” that I prefer over BABIP (BABIP can work for outcomes where a play could be made but wasn’t but Ball Off Bat would work for outcomes where the bat hit the ball) Anyways… BABIP: 3 non-homer hits in 14 balls in play for the Yankees BOB: 5 Yankee hits when they made contact with 16 balls Astros hit 28 balls and got 7 hits, which is a little lower than one would expect but sometimes smaller parks play uniquely when it comes to hits and the Astros had 3 homers and 4 non-homers. 5 of the 12 hits were homers.

Lawful Metal Posted October 21, 2022 Posted October 21, 2022 Astros pitching tonight: 9IP, 4H, 0ER, 2BB, 13K. Yanks = 30 strikeouts through 2 games. Jesus Christ.
RIPPA Posted October 21, 2022 Author Posted October 21, 2022 Lance McCullers will now start Game 4 for Houston instead of Game 3 Why you might ask? He was hit by a thrown champagne bottle during the ALDS celebration and still has some slight swelling on his elbow Cristian Javier will start Game 3

Cobra Commander Posted October 23, 2022 Posted October 23, 2022 didn't take long for Padres/Phillies to involve more runs than Astros/Yankees
Raziel Posted October 23, 2022 Posted October 23, 2022 I'm sure there's a stat somewhere that 40 K's over 3 games is ok because they fouled a bunch off or something.
Cobra Commander Posted October 23, 2022 Posted October 23, 2022 can we check back in on people who were disappointed that Padres/Phillies was the NLCS instead of Braves/Dodgers? 2
Lawful Metal Posted October 23, 2022 Posted October 23, 2022 Astros still haven’t given up a run on the road through 3 full games.
odessasteps Posted October 23, 2022 Posted October 23, 2022 Oh, Friars. .. Time for Houston to finally avenge the injustice of the 1980 NLCS.
RIPPA Posted October 23, 2022 Author Posted October 23, 2022 So I don't have to look it up - when is the last time a team made the WS after firing their manager mid-season?

Lawful Metal Posted October 23, 2022 Posted October 23, 2022 So I turn on the Astros and its the motherfucking Cube. Poverty franchise can't afford a roof on their stadium. Only way they ain't losing tonight.
Contentious C Posted October 23, 2022 Posted October 23, 2022 Sigh, I have to pull for Philly. This is a clown outcome, bro.

Cobra Commander Posted October 24, 2022 Posted October 24, 2022 Yankees inching towards the possibility of being one weather delay away from messing with AEW's Tuesday night programming Also the Phillies might get the "long lull messed with momentum" rub despite the Astros being up 3-0 in a series. World Series starts on Friday.
Cobra Commander Posted October 24, 2022 Posted October 24, 2022 as expected, the Yankees big postseason bat has been Harrison Bader
Cobra Commander Posted October 24, 2022 Posted October 24, 2022 And we got offdays on Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday before the World Series starts on Friday, time for teams to start hiring non-Astros/Phillies managers.
