He did it!
Gurriel…bases drunker than I am…quickly down 0-2…1-2…strikes out on a pitch behind him
Always nice to swing at a possible HBP, Yuli.
Yuli is a black hole right now
His dropoff has been breathtakingly precipitous.
Uh, yesterday?
ZZ Catch with the clutch hit!
Vazquez…quickly down 0-2…singles to CF, Altuve scores, Diaz scores…6-2 Astros
Shhh, I’m on a roll.
Chas…full count…bounces out. But the Astros bat around. Lead 6-2
Montero will try to close it out
I hope never to see Odor again.
Hard to believe this Astros-killer is the same guy.
Have we had this argument before? You consider 9 batters “batting around”? Has to be at least 10 batters to bat around, right?
Single on 0-2 pitch makes it 6-3
I don’t remember if we’ve discussed it or not. I consider every spot in the lineup coming to the plate to be batting around. Not sure if there’s an official definition.
1-5-3 makes it two outs
Ok, that helped.
I’ve always considered it when the leadoff batter bats again. Googling around it seems this is unresolved. (But I’m right.)
I’ll allow it.
