That’s baseball!
This lineup makes a split squad game in March blush.
If you showed me this lineup in March and told me this was from late July… I would have said “ok so everything went wrong and it’s 2013 all over again?”
Ladies and gentlemen…your FIRST PLACE Houston Astros!
I think you would have to wonder whether the team plane had crashed.
Yeah, but I will say…Trammell is having really good ABs lately and I’m still holding out hope that Whitcomb will show us a little something that can help this team.
This is the 6th of 13 straight. Looks like Espada is willing to settle for a series win and a .500 roadtrip.
I can’t help but be nervous about Altuve not being in the lineup after that slide. Planned or not, I just assume every minor nick and scratch will result in significant IL time this season.
Trammel works a leadoff walk, steals 2B and moves to 3B on a groundout by Caratini…on 3B, one out for Walker…
Walker down on strikes.
Diaz grounds out 5-3
Astros 0-3 w/RISP, strand a man…no score
Off to the races
One pitch and it’s 1-0 Snakes
1 pitch, 1 run
None of those were close. I blame Blum for talking about how Walter doesn’t walk anyone in pregame.
I guess it’s just a rule now that the Astros cannot score first in a game.
Hummel with a 2-out single
Back to back 2-out singles…DBacks on the corners
