Meltdown inning looks to be in full swing

I mean Tucker crushed a ball and then basically garbage luck from the Astros

Homer clearly rattled Nola.

Luckily altuve grounded into a double play.

Hopefully, Nola can settle down for a few innings so the middle of the pen doesn’t have to come in.

Offense needs to do some damage

Getting 1 hit against Verlander would be a start (and a first this season)

The hitters aren’t even making verlander work out there

Verlander is an elite pitcher, throwing strikes. It is just as much about him as the Phillies batters

Oh I agree, but the Phillies are making this easier for him at the moment.

36 pitches through 3 isn’t all that great. Hopefully, the second go around they’ll make a few adjustments and break through

Gonna need Cy Wheeler tomorrow and hope they get to Valdez. They don’t have a prayer tonight

If they lose tonight, series is obviously not over

However, Houston is one of the better teams I have ever seen. Beating them in more than 1 game, let alone 4, is going to be extremely tough, but to have a shot, Phils need some dominant starts. If they don't get that, going to be hard to win with the Astros pitching

That’s just bad pitch selection by JT. Throw the fucking curve there

Sadly Nola is not good enough tonight. Can't fall into a 3+ run hole against this pitching

Nola in trouble again.

Astros just with garbage luck man.
