Astros @ Royals, August 19, 2021

Correa doubles to LF.

Lead off double by Correa

Do better, Diaz.

An extra-base hit. Are those allowed?

Swinging at fucking strikes and laying off low sliders would be a good start.

Neck high FBs?

Fair game.

He’s not Jose Altuve, so, preferably not.

So apparently the Astros just needed a deeper hole to climb out of to get the offense started.

Makes sense.

Back-to-back hits. I must be dreaming.

Diaz drops one in front of Bendatiddy.

Carlos to 3rd.

Chas has to put the ball in play. Critical.

Helps if you swing at strikes. That wasn’t one.

McCormick swung out of his shoes at strike 2. I hope he realizes that a ball in play scores a run.

He wanted it…

Not what I was hoping for, but much better than what I expected.

Chas full count, grounds into 5-4 FC.

Run scores.

3-1

Thought for a second Correa was gonna stand at 3B and watch a double play.

Minor has the highest BAA with RISP in MLB, so I’m assuming 1 run this inning is all we could hope for.

Let’s not swing at strikes and put ourselves in an 0-2 hole.
