It’s a Roku special today. Paredes in the leadoff spot because why not give Pena his off day with our ground ball specialist on the mound?
Espada gets tired easily.
Paredes celebrates the leadoff spot by swinging first pitch for a deep flyout.
Altuve grounds to third on the next pitch.
Walker decides to actually look at a couple of balls, a bold choice. Leiter dots the corner on a 2-2 pitch and doesn’t get the call, Walker walks on the next pitch.
Diaz with a routine grounder to short and that’s that.
