    Really disgusted by the lack of effort by the Astros last night...

    They played a 162 game season, had to get through two playoff rounds, but last night's game still wasn't important enough to merit running out fly balls. It cost Springer a triple and may have cost them the game. He wasn't the only one loafing either. If I'm being paid millions to play a game, I would at least run out a fly ball. That's not too much to ask.

    Hopefully it’ll be different tonight!

      Brantley did the same as well. Would have been at home if he would have ran on Yuli fly ball.

          If he would have gotten thrown out at 3rd y'all would all be notching bitching about why did he not stay at 2nd. He was already in scoring position.

            I didn’t see Springer not running out the fly ball as a lack of effort but a premature celebration.

              He wouldn’t have been thrown out. He was half way to first when the ball hit the wall. He shoulda been around first and cruising.

                  When he hit that ball he hopped halfway up the first base line because he thought it was a homer then realized it wasn’t when it hit then he ran. Had he just took off sprinting as soon as he hit it he’d gotten a triple. I was sitting right above the first base dugout and saw it all. Ticked me off he did that.

                        Yes he was already in scoring position but there was only one out. So being at third would have opened up the opportunity for a sac fly.

                        Ill let you look back at the result of Altuve's at bat while Springer was on second base.....

                              …, and who at home watching wants to throat punch Joe Buck? He won't shut up and take a breath! He's biased and annoying; IMHO...
