Astros @ Padres, August 22, 2020

Grisham again.

I’m am still pissed at Dusty for mailing in last night.

Altuve with another double in the gap

Mayfield is a fucking deer in the headlights.

Sneed in to hopefully mop this slop up.

Sneed mows em down in the 8th, striking out the side on 12 pitches

Astros need just 11 runs to send this thing to extra innings.

Straw with a leadoff double

Ironically, this has been the quickest game of the season.

I’m pulling for this thing to go past 3 hours.

I like Perdomo cigars.

Yuli and Stubbs are dashing my hopes.

And it finally ends.

13-2 is the final

Seriously, for as long as those first two innings took, this thing went just a little over 2 hrs 30 min.

Of course, the Astros getting a base runner every 9 hitters sped things along.

Well that was terrible.

Back at em with Grienke tmw.

Maybe the sun will get in their eyes.

*The Astros are 0-7 against the Dodgers, A’s, and Padres. Those are the only teams the Astros have played who are over .500. The Astros are 0-7 against good teams, and 15-5 against everybody else. Houston and Arlington are the only two teams without a win against a team over .500.

ouch.

That’s just a dumb stat. Colorado, Arizona, and San Francisco are below .500 precisely because the Astros beat them. The only team above .500 the A’s have beaten is the Astros. In fact, the only team the A’s have even played that is over .500 is the Astros.

Wow, that’s crazy about the A’s.

Uncle Mike is back
