9/4/24 Astros @ Reds

Be glad you didn’t have to watch it live.

Bregman pops up.

Astros strand a pair. 9-1 Reds

Yeah, I don’t think there was a single strike thrown that inning.

I’m gonna make a drink and light up a smoke.

Bregman pops foul into the stands then straightens it out to pop up on the field of play.

Dedication to the craft.

Apropos of nothing.

Murder’s Row of Tommy Davis, Denis Menke, and Joe Pepitone key a nice comeback win.

Caratini with a leadoff double.

10 runs can’t win this one.

Peña flies out in the gap in RCF. For some reason, Caratini stood at 2B and watched it.

Gamel caught looking

Dezenzo carved up

And the Astros waste another leadoff double. 10-1 Reds

When can you put in a position player to pitch? I wonder who it’ll be? Knowing Espada, it may be Bregman

10 more can

Whitley in. France reaches on an E5

Under the new guidelines [adopted before last season], leading teams have to be up by 10 or more runs in the ninth inning in order to let a position player pitch while trailing teams can use a position player anytime it’s down by eight or more runs. Position players are also allowed to pitch anytime in extra innings.

So…anytime Espada’s ready

I’ll be shocked if the Astros score again this series.
