Astros at Phillies, 24jun25

Meyers hitting 4th. Wow

Framber, 4 up, 3 down T1 with a walk

Peña with a hot shot to short and Paredes with a pop to left.

Altuve be hackin’

Only strike so far a timer violation

Altuve down on strikes. Astris report must be swing early.

Phillies report must be throw slop early.

Looks like we’ve got Squeezimodo behind the plate.

That is a broad, broad zone. Blue is giving the top of the zone and the entire bottom outside of the zone.

And, apparently the low inside part of the zone as well.

That was a weakass initial run through the order.

Boy, that was a good catch by Yainer. That throw from Paredes had to look like it was coming out of the runner’s head.

I don’t miss Bregman all that much, either, now that we’re on the topic.

Is that a baserunner I see before me?

A baserunner of the mind, I reckon

Altuve was on it regarding timing. Just happen to be right up the middle to the pitcher.

This is ugly

I’m beginning to doubt I’m going to miss Walker very much, either, once he’s on to greener pastures.

I simply don’t get our first base quandary. Trey Mancini, Jose Abreu, and now Walker have been inexplicable black holes in the lineup. It really doesn’t make sense. I’m just kinda hoping they get Yuli back here and pretend nothing ever happened.

Bunts. Remember when they were a thing that people did, and sometimes did successfully? That was pretty cool.

Terrible strike 3 call. But ultimately, the inability to put down a bunt sank this inning.
