Astros @ Blue Jays, May 1, 2022

With two strikes…to the 9-hole hitter.

And you knew what was going to happen when you saw it.

Tucker trying to carry the team!

Goodrum tells OWA to fuck off in the most elegant way possible.

Goodrum = MVP

T7:

Gurriel pops up to 2B on the first pitch
Tucker with a squibber that hits 3B…infield single
Tucker steals 2B
Goodrum with a hustle double to CF, seeing eye grounder right between two fielders…Tucker scores
Peña strikes out swinging
Maldonado strikes out swinging

At the Stretch…tie ballgame, 2-2

B7:

Gurriel singles to CF
Chapman grounds into FC, Gurriel out 6-4
Kirk grounds to SS, Peña kicks it. E6, Chapman to 2B

And that’s all for Framber

Needed at least one out with that ground ball.

Framber done.

Hell of a game.

Needed two with Kirk running.

I’m guessing that throw would’ve been to 1st and he’d have had Kirk fairly easily.

And we’re behind.

Welp

Disappointing

Maton hasn’t exactly found his groove this season.

There’s a nice dp.

Nice DP. But now we’ve got to find another run.

B7:

Maton in…

Espinal singles to LF, Chapman scores, Kirk to 2B
Tapia, who came in on defense for Capra, grounds into 3-6-1 double play. But the error is costly…Blue Jays back on top 3-2

Espinal is an assassin with his hits.

Ball was hit hard enough to get two.
