Astros @ Rangers, September 5, 2023

I’m gonna guess one was in the 1920s and one in the 90’s.

Carl Reynolds, 1930
Manny Machado, 2016

I’m sure I can find this by googling but will be quicker to ask here. Where is Blummer?

Sick

I only caught the last couple innings yesterday, was Julia in the booth or did it sound like it?

yeah, she did 6 innings and Sparky did the middle 3 innings. Stanton is gonna fill in tonight and tomorrow, apparently.

Damn, my guess was kinda close

5 HR in 7 innings, not sure which one sounds cooler

Gonna be tough to get Altuve an at-bat this inning …

That’s on me. I didn’t turn the game on until Altuve was rounding third with his third home run. If I just stayed away he would’ve been four for four by now

Altuve better watch his step, he keeps this up and he’ll never hit for the cycle again.

I like this all-home-run style better, anyway!

I seem to recall one time an Astro, I’m thinking it was Mike Lamb, get a double, triple, and home run and came up for his final at bat of the game needing only a single. He hit another home run.

Here’s Altuve…

Dang

Not this time

Halfway…9-0 Astros

Leadoff walk to Grossman

Taveras with a 2-out single

Single to LF makes it 9-1
