Astros at Giants, June 11, 2024

Halfway through, 1-1.

Astros scored in top of 3rd with Dubon double followed by groundouts from Caratini and Altuve.

Giants scored in bottom 3rd on Wisely HR.

Bottom 4th

Blanco pitching.

Chapman 5-3.

Conforto K (got ahead 3-0, then Blanco comes back to strike him out swinging).

Flores F8.

Still 1-1.

Altuve basically threw his bat at a ball outside the LHB box to tap it fair and get the RBI

Runners at 2nd and 3rd with no outs.

Now one out.

Fucking hell, Caratini. It’s a nasty sweeper, but it started out at your ankles.

Now 2 out.

E5 gift from Chapman.

Unconventional, but we’ll take it.

I’ve never understood - is this T-Mobile ad with the “Suits” guys supposed to be funny?

Yordan continues to be the most aggressive baserunner on the team

Top of 5th, Hicks pitching.

Cabbage singles.

Dubon (playing like he’s still mad about the trade) doubles off the center field wall. Cabbage to third.

Caratini Ks swinging at breaking ball in the dirt after running the count full.

Altuve Ks swinging at low inside sinker.

Bregman hits a slow bouncer to the hole, Chapman cuts in front, barehands, and throws it away - infield hit. 1RBI, 1 run in on the E5 throw.

Taylor Rogers replaces Hicks

Alvarez singles to right, Bregman goes 1st to 3rd, and Alvarez takes 2nd on the throw.

Pena goes full, 4-3.
