Astros @ A’s, May 30, 2022 Memorial Day

Puk said “I missed with two fastballs. He’ll never expect a slider.”

Oops!

The Pretenders, “(I Hit That Ball) 500 Miles”

Party is over

500 Miles is the Proclaimers.

Dammit

I was thinking more along the lines of (Rory Gallagher) “A Million Miles Away”.

That K swing by Peña makes you shake your head.

It was Altuve-esque. Altuvean?

Two on, two out for Siri…

Pretenders/Proclaimers, somehow the two always get mixed up in my head.

That’s like saying I always get Star Wars and Dude, Where’s My Car? mixed up. But alright.

Framber back out for the 8th…

Altuve out, Dubon in at 2B. Hopefully a precaution

Just something about those P names. I know they have nothing in common.

Hadn’t thought about that Proclaimers song in quite a while, but then I watched Slow Horses on Apple(?). Solid British spy drama, and there’s a fantastic scene with Gary Oldman blasting that song in a car.

Like U2 and UB40?

It’s a fun party song.

To the 9th…5-1 Astros

Those are different bands?
