Astros up 1-0 on a Trammell 3b and Correa SF.
In the second, even Yainer got this challenge right:
Burrows has 6 strikeouts in 4 innings.
I intentionally omitted anything about Burrows. Don’t even breathe wrong about him.
Walker now on an 0-13, Paredes 0-19.
I am enjoying a lead while I can.
And it’s gone
This is so stupid.
Sure enough, Burrows gets the first two of the 5th, then single, walk, infield single, walk, single, and it’s 3-1
And Burrows gets the hook?
First pitch I see: 2 run deficit
Oops.
Next time the Astros get a lead they should just call time out and go home.
Totally disagree with going to the pen. At some point you have to get these starters to pitch out of it.
I re-tune in to see an Astro sliding into 3rd
It was a replay from earlier.
Sigh.
It’s the 8th inning, the Astros have 3 hits and 2 walks
“The starter looked great through 4 before the game fell apart” is a huge improvement for this team.
Make it 4-2, on a Yordong, of course.
Man they are wasting his season.
Paredes with a 2-run single and we’re tied!
No Abreu today, please.
