Slider needs to start sliding.

Can we just bring Raley in and get this over with?

Fuck.

McCormick somehow manages to catch a fly ball and not flip it over the fence…two out

Astros six games over Oakland, seven over the Mariners. It’s not a beauty contest.

Tucker is pretty embarrassed.

Not Jose Canseco embarrassed but red in the face.

He should be.

Toro is the first player to homer for and against the same team on consecutive days.

Cool factoid. It did not hurt us (except Pressly’s ERA) so I am glad for him. As others said, he will be an established big leaguer with someone. Today must feel strange for him.

Yeah, I wish him the best. I’ll never forget his part in JV’s no hitter, that’s for sure.

He’s homered against 3 different teams on 3 straight days…has that ever been done?

You’d have to think the opportunities to do so are very limited. Maybe somebody could get a rain-out makeup sandwiched between two other series and do it that way.

Yeah, without a trade intervening, it seems nigh-impossible.
