Eric and Brett look at the weird game that occurred on May 11th, 2021, where the Astros had a chance to finish the Angels "Mortal Combat" style early in the game, but stranded 10 runners on base in the first six innings. Luis Garcia pitched good in the first five innings but gave up back-to-back homers to Jared Walsh and Justin Upton before Brandon Bielak came in and struggled. While the bullpen did give up the lead, Yordan Alvarez's rare struggles and Yuli Gurriel's aggressive baserunning in the ninth inning cost the Astros the chance to win the game.
