Astros @ Arlington Chucklefucks, June 30, 2023

Blanco got the win. That is my favorite statistic of the game.

Well deserved, especially after the tough luck against the Dodgers. Blanco did a great job. Liked that he settled down after the back to back home runs.

Yes, that is why I liked it so much. He pitched his butt off last game, but the pen failed him. He hung in tonight, and the pen nailed down his win.

Great observation. Could lead to good things in future games.

None of the RPs threw more than 17 pitches. Entire bullpen should be available tomorrow.

That little tiny seed of doubt has now creeped into the back of the Rangers’ mind.

Not only are you goobers ecologically irresponsible, but your collective taste in Nex-Mex is ass.

ASS.

I remember 20 years ago or so when Biz claimed that Pappasito’s was the best Mexican in town. He was roundly mocked, and properly so. Yet here we are. Soft. Soft or senile. Possibly both.

My good dude, please exclude the Raups from “goobers.” When HH, Mark, and I eat Tex-Mex before a postseason game, we do NOT go to Pappasitos.

What you miss with you ignore the oppo broadcasts:

(09:11 - Cheers from Astros fans as Altuve clears the CF wall) “…an early indication that this will NOT be a partisan crowd tonight…”
(As Altuve returns to the dugout & Bregman bats) “…Should note that the Astros have had the 2nd highest swing % on 1st pitch (33.7%, behind the Angels 34.8%). The Rangers are right behind @ 33.1%…”

Luv it!!!

Dusty:
“I wanted him to swing in that situation,” Baker said of Dubón. “He was trying to play baseball. I just tell him, ‘You let me do the thinking, you do the playing.’”

I see the Trump School of Quotation Marks is spreading.

Oh, the temptation: to correct or leave it.

In the meantime I will focus on posting, as you focus on grammer…

I can’t decide whether the irony is intentional or simply obliviousness.

Really goofball? Really? Grammer?

Focus on not posting, please.

I vote for this.

We’re overlooking the Official Restaurant of OWA, Spanish Flowers.

Absolutely! Mark, HH, and I have kinda made the original Ninfa’s on Navigation our lucky postseason restaurant.

I’d like to think Flying Saucer played a not unsignificant part in 2022.

A huge part!
