— Alex Bregman doubled with two outs off Andres Munoz, but the Mariners' reliever struck out Kyle Tucker with a 101 mph fastball to end another Houston threat in the eighth inning. It's still 0-0, going to the bottom of the eighth. —— Turns out, Yordan Alvarez is human. After swinging through 101 mph from Seattle reliever Andrés Muñoz in the eighth, Alvarez has his first strikeout of the postseason. He’s 0-for-3 today.
McCullers is a much different pitcher than he was in 2015. Through five innings in Seattle, he's still putting up zeroes in the scoring column that matters and has done his part to sweep the Mariners. —— Lance McCullers Jr. gets a pivotal strikeout to end the fifth inning, getting Mariners rookie phenom to whiff on a full-count slider with a runner on first. It's still 0-0 going to the sixth inning.
If Lance McCullers Jr. doesn't have a quick inning, Seattle could soon be into the Astros' bullpen. —The Astros appeared to catch a massive break in the fourth after replay review couldn’t overturn a questionable hit by pitch on Trey Mancini. The sellout crowd at T-Mobile park booed as Mancini stayed at first and Houston loaded the bases. Chas McCormick lined out to strand them. Through four innings, Houston is 0-for-4 with runners in scoring position and has stranded five baserunners.
