Blue Jays @ Astros May 8, 2021

Kalas drunk tonight? He called Vlad “Gurriel” earlier and just said the Astros got a run to add to their lead.

Scrubb replacing Javier after a leadoff walk to Biggio.

That was a 1 out walk.

Scrubb gets a foul pop up and a liner to RF to end the inning.

Chasing a pair going to the bottom of the 6th.

Chatwood (RHP) pitching

Correa pops out to Semian.

He tried to fuck that up.

(Roof open, wind played with it)

Any geologist knows the K-T barrier represents destruction.

Tucker 2-0, hits it hard but right back to the mound.

1-3.

Straw 0-2, Ks looking.

Good grief Myles, protect the damn plate.

Scrubb puts them down in order in the 7th.

McTaggart must have been drinking with him. He congratulated Josh James on his relief appearance. Tweet has already been deleted.

Diddly squat from the bats in the 7th.

Abreu gets the 8th.

Good effective outing (1.2 innings) from Scrubb.

Broken bat 3U, swinging K, TE 4 on a grounder into the shift, review overturns it.

Looked like Altuve lost his grip as he was throwing from the left of the bag.

Clean 8th from Abreu.

Bregman faces Romano

Hooks a ball into left, Gurriel Jr can’t quite backhand it and Alex easily make it to 2nd.

Alvarez 0-2, fouls a slider that’s didn’t slide much, fouls 99 chest high, taps weakly to the right side but Alex moves to 3rd.

Yuli watches a mediocre slider 0-1, grounds the next one to short, Alex scores.

It’s 5-4.

Super important to get that run in.

Correa Ks swinging

5-4 end 8

Raley pitching

Biggio walks.

Grumble grumble grumble

Fucking hell.

Gurriel Jr chops to 3rd, throw eeks out of Yuli’s glove, Biggio to 3rd.

Runners on the corner, no outs.

(E3)

Espinal hits for Rowdy.

Raley has been all over the place.

Tapper 1-3.

Gurriel Jr to 2nd.
