Someone offer me rum, cigar…take curse from bats…
T5:
Peña doubles to LF on the first pitch…his third hit tonight
Alvarez singles to LF against the shift, Peña to 3B
Bregman grounds into FC, Peña out 5-2-5-3, but stays in a rundown to allow Alvarez to 3B and Bregman to 2B. Good base running by Peña
Tucker…infield in…quickly 0-2…1-2…2-2…chops a slow roller to 2B, only play at 1B, Alvarez scores, Bregman to 3B
Gurriel doubles to LF, Bregman scores
Gurriel to 3B on a wild pitch
Mancini grounds to the hole at SS, Baez fields in shallow LF, counts the laces, goes to the bar for a drink, takes a piss, phones home, and throws out Mancini by 47 ft
But…5-0 Astros
Twice Tucker has come up with runners on and hit dribblers to 2B so weak that runs score. That’s clean living.

Ok, I’m gonna fix me a drink and light a cigar. Someone do some PBP
Here’s my PBP. Framber is looking studly with the big yakker in B5. 11 pitch inning to follow his last two 9 pitch innings.
Greene is going to be a good player.
We’ve played six…5-0 Astros
Went back to watch the replay of Tucker’s GIDP to end the third…Peña scored, and if Bregman hadn’t have just ran into the out at 2B, Alvarez may have been able to score from 2B too. He was halfway to the plate, and if Bregman would have stopped and got in a rundown, Alvarez could have crossed too.
Very interesting
Yordan with the leather!
Through seven…5-0 Astros
4 strike strikeout there
Wow. What a play.
Holy cow.
What a play.
Bregman with the glove!
Framber through eight…5-0 Astros
Tonight’s defense has been a joy to watch.

Even the error saved a run
(No glove required)
Nobody up in the bullpen, looks like Framber for the 9th.
Maldy hit by pitch, Altuve singles…two on for Peña…
