B2, 3-0 Toronto. Javier getting smacked around.
Shit, I had no idea it was a day game.
And I kinda wish you hadn’t told me.
Top 4
1st and 3rd with out out and… ah fuck, Altuve at the plate.
And sure enough, pops foul to first.
PERFECTION! Swings at tits high first pitch and pops out to first.
Can we just pretend he’s hurt and put him on the IL for a few weeks. Sending up a cardboard cutout of him would at least draw the occasional walk. Fucking christ.
Well played by CF and RF
Javier sets down 9 in a row for 6 IP, 3 ER.
But the damage is done. No way in hell they’re scoring 4.
They are really waving the white flag sending McCullers out there.
Gausman with only 79 pitches through 7 and looking pretty unhittable.
Derek Bell’s Operation Shutdown is here, people.
I totally missed the SF in the 4th. It’s 4-0
Since August 24th the Astros have scored more than 4 runs, 3 times.

That might be the 3rd catchable ball in right that Sanchez has NOT caught in this game.
I like Sanchez, but that sure looked like a catchable ball.
Every day LMJ stays on the roster is another day you’re not taking the postseason seriously.
BJ announcers speculating that Gausman may not come back out if this inning lasts too long.
Does it matter? The bat boy could close this game.
Pena still battling, though. Laid off a lot of low outside pitches he would have swung at last year and draws a walk.
