Brantley batting 6th

Love Uncle Mike. I hope he is feeling good.

What thoughts on Brantley’s return were they expecting? “Brantley…he’s a bum…need to stick with Taylor Jones in LF”?

I thought maybe they meant batting 6th.

Yeah, he hasn’t even had a hit in 2 weeks.

(I’m sure the question was about 6 hole vs 2 hole; I’m just happy he’s back)

Hmmm…maybe so. I’d rather he hit second and Correa sixth, but I’m just glad he’s back anywhere in the lineup.

Slight rain delay, but getting underway now

Let’s hope Perez got over his bout of dominance.

Homers to LF

Homerun?

Maybe?

Please?

Yes!

That’s a homer.

Cora is arguing it was foul…going to replay…clearly fair by a good foot…yep…1-0 Astros

T1:

Bregman…3-0…3-1…3-2 hacking at ball four on the hands…fouls ball five…foul…foul…foul…foul…takes strike three

Almost a really good AB, Alex.

T1:

Alvarez…3-0…3-1 on the corner…walks

T1:

Gurriel pops to shallow RF

1-0 Astros

They tried to bust Yuli inside and finally did.

That play by Altuve was pretty nice.

Arroyo grounds out 4-3
