Stop me if you’ve heard this before….Astros strand a pair in the first. That’s 18 first-inning LOB with 0 runs scored in the last nine games.
Lambert walks the first hitter he faces
Single puts Padres on the corners
Strikeout of Machado for the first out
Stolen base puts two in scoring position
Infield now in
And another walk loads the bases
Merrill hits one to RF, it drops in front of Smith and France at 1B sort of just stood there. Cam throw out France at 2B, score it a 9-6 FC, but Tatis scores
And another stolen base puts runners back at 2B and 3B
Strikeout ends the inning.
After one…1-0 Padres
Let’s go Astros.

Trammell!!
Middle of two…1-1
Be nice for Lambert to have a quick inning here
2-out walk to the 9-hitter
Single puts two on, two out
He thought about it.
Then decided no.
Lambert with a scoreless inning, but it wasn’t quick and it wasn’t easy
1-1 after two.
Well, I thought it was a good idea
50 pitches through 2 innings
Peña still gets completely destroyed by sliders off the plate. I guess he’ll just never learn to recognize that pitch, even though he knows it’s coming.
