Karinchak in for the Indians
Alvarez pops out softly to 3B
Not a good at bat

An even worse at bat
Carlos has his back
Geez.
3 popups.
Good grief.
Another sweep fail. In two ways.

Hold my beer…5-pitch inning
Astros drop this one 5-4
Geez, that was pitiful
That was a weak run through the middle of the lineup.
Correa is now 1 for his last 34
May hurt his $300 million plan some.
Hard to beat any team 7 straight times. Let’s have a good day off and get ready to kick the shit outta the Rangers starting Friday

True. Still, this one was winnable.
No doubt. Would have been nice to gain an extra half game in the standings with Oakland not playing today too
Who dresses Mike Stanton? Herb Tarlek?

Great camera work on this play: as Straw & Tucker fly to the ball, Straw glances toward Tucker, and then, at the last moment, gives way for Tucker to make the sliding catch as he slides behind him.
Beautiful display of athleticism & speed in the OF combined w/ awareness & communication that avoided a collision!
You think so, snuffy? How about a circular poor route to the ball by Straw forcing Tucker to dive in front of him risking a collision. Straw did do a good job avoiding a collision, but his route was poor and tentative. The CFer must take charge, and Straw did not. His defense is much improved but still is a work in progress.
