I wonder who called that play…

Altuve and Bregman start with sharp singles to LF
Yordan bounces up the middle, A’s cross up on the shift but nearly turn a nifty DP, Yordan safe on the FC
Diaz flies to RCF, not deep, but Altuve beats the throw, 1-0 Astros!
Peña clipped on the elbow, HBP, Yordan to second
Meyers tries to bunt for a hit, down the 3b line but the pitcher makes a smart throw to 3b for the force

Mid 1, 1-0 Astros

Bunting for a hit with 2 on and 2 out is certainly a choice

From a guy with home run pop too.

Fucking idiocy.

That’s ok, he makes up for it by shutting down baserunners.

Four pitches, tie game.

Four pitches, tie game.

Butler line drive to CF, understands Jake can’t throw out anyone, gets a double on a ball Jake barely moved sideways for
Andujar bloops one to RF line, that’ll go for a double too. 1-1 already. This fucking team.
My cable goes out, probably a blessing

Great minds.

How do you feel about this Stevie Nicks song they play every time this goon steps up to bat which seems like happens about twice an inning?

Because I didn’t like it to begin with and I’m really starting to hate it now.

I wouldn’t want any Stevie Nicks song to be my walk up. I would want something more manly.

I like Stevie Nicks

It’s always something

McCormick is…not good.

Much as I love Chas, and I do love Chas, it might be time for him to be playing at SL to try and find himself

I love Stevie Nicks just not that song.

End of two…2-1 Astros

Yordan is totally lost on breaking balls. What the hell happened?

This guy just has him befuddled
