Toro made an out that I missed, and then Straw sneaks a grounder past the 2b on 3-2.
I will be highly pissed if he doesn’t try to steal.
Man, Lowrie’s effort on that grounder made Correa’s attempt on that ball up the middle look downright Herculean.
Was Jed in slow motion there?
HE’S THROWING A GET-AHEAD FB ON LITERALLY EVERY AB, GUYS. LOOK FOR IT.
Took 92 down the middle, either took or swung and missed at 90ish MPH fastball. Swung under and behind a 93 MPH fastball at the top of the zone.
Routine grounder 5-3 on a 1-1 pitch ends the inning.
This game is exactly opposite of the game I hoped for. The As are making the statement, not the Astros.

Pinder grounds out 5-3 on a 1-1 pitch.
Blum: “That’s got to feel like a small victory for Valdez.”
Lowrie grounds up the middle past Altuve and I swear everyone tonight has alligator arms.
Finally a tailor made 5-4-3 DP gets Framber out of an inning.
Mid 3, 6-2 OAK.
If I have to watch another inning of the Astros taking 92 down the middle for strike one, I’m going to turn the game off.
Altuve watches four straight fastballs to strikeout without ever swinging.
Have a good night, Mark.

Swings at strike 3 2 feet off the plate. Watches outside corner fastball for strike 3.
Winning combo there, Jose.
Come on, Todd. That wasn’t even close to a homer.
That ball didn’t go 300 ft. No, Kalas, I don’t think it was deep enough.

Brantley fools both TK and the cameraman with a high deep foul short of the RF foul pole then flies to LF.

At least Yuli was sitting on the first pitch even if he fouled it into the upper deck in LF.
Yuli was not messing around with that one
No, fans, that fly ball short of the RF warning track was not going out.
End 3, 6-2 OAK.
“Watch Bucks-Suns live on ABC.”
No, phone. Don’t threaten me like that.
