Pitch com is lost somewhere in Hader's hair.

2-0 on Cabrera leading off.
Astros using their closer in a non-closing situation for the 2nd time this series.
2-1 now.
Sinker above the zone, fouled off, 2-2
Sinker in a hittable spot down and in, but Cabrera late and under, fouls it back. Hader didn't like that pitch.
Hangs the slider high, Cabrera chases ball four, and fouls it.
Starts the slider at him inside, he thinks it's the sinker starts early and swings over, K, 1 down.

Sinker outside to Grisham 1-0.
Sinker in the zone, low in the middle, but he's late, fouls it.
Hader gets the call on the sinker at the bottom. Marginal, 10-20% on Gameday
And he has no chance on the slider going low right after, swings over, K's, 2 down

Slider low, then slider for a strike

Loses a sinker up and away, Caratini whiffs on it, thought it was a slider, cross-up. 3-2
Slider misses low and outside, ball 4

Gleyber walks. Soto will get his chance.

Holmes warming, are we expecting a nail biting scenario with a 2 run lead?

Good at bat from Gleyber! Walks ahead of Soto!

Slider just inside middle, Soto jams himself, taps it back to Hader, flips to Abreu, inning over.
Holmes for the 9th, Diaz, Abreu and Pena due in.
Diaz 1-2 vs. Holmes, Abreu is 0-5, and Pena is 0-2 with 2 K's.
Might get Singleton this inning somewhere. He's 0-1 vs. Holmes, a K.
