Stassi 0-2 quickly, ball, foul, ball 2-2, foul, k swinging #19
You got to your closer in the 9th when tied, generally, because you know you won’t have a lead to protect.
Walk it off, boys. Second act at Zach about to start.
Man, what was wrong with that strike ?
What show ?
Walsh 1-2, ball (bs), foul, ponche
19, now 20, new franchise record for Ks by Astros pitching in a single game
Record for a 9 inning game, if it ends in 9. I believe the booth said 24 is the record for all games.
Tepera in. Let’s pound him!
I was at that infinitely long game against the Dodgers, and although I don’t remember, there must have been a lot of K’s in that one.
Chas fly out to center
Maldonado grounds to short
Altuve singles to center
Peña 2 run shibby!
WOOOOOHOOOOO
PEÑA WALKS IT OFF AGAIN!!!
Done!
Astros walk it off 4-2
Man, the Astros were first pitch hunting in B9. Fascinating approach. I’d love to have seen the scouting report that led to that.
Pulled pork, homemade coleslaw, grilled corn/cotija/pasta salad, Vennstone Pinot Noir. ASTROS WALK OFF WIN!
Got a victory cigar at the ready. It’s been a good day.
