DBacks @ Astros, September 17, 2021

How the fuck was that a passed ball?

Ground out, runner at 3B, two down

6-3 advances the runner.

Raley out, Javier in

That leadoff hit was very soft. Jake hesitated long enough to read it but that was too long for him to get there.

The passed ball was a 2 seamer that zipped away from Castro.

It was a pitch that missed the spot by four feet that Castro managed to knock down reaching out in the backhand.

Ponche!

Halfway…Astros without a hit…scoreless.

Javier in to face Walker.

Ks swinging.

Still scoreless mid 5.

Boy, the Astros are mailing this one in.

Tucker expands 2-2 and Ks.

Correa 1-3 comebacker.

Marwin 6-3

End 5 no score, no hits for the Astros

Still without a hit, sent the minimum to the plate

Jeff Nelson, the Yankee Gift Giver from earlier this week, is not having a great game tonight either.

1-0 Dbacks.

And our guys can’t even get a hit.

Fat pitch, right down the fucking center of the plate.

I’m tired of Calhoun owning us.

Dumbass fan plucks Calhoun’s homer from just above Tucker’s glove.

Couldn’t tell if he would have caught it, but now we’ll never know.

But, frankly, I’m surprised that we’re only down one at this point.

HR was on a 2-1 FB that caught a ton of plate, upper part of the zone.

Astros are extremely lucky they’re only down a run. Not that it matters. Scoring will most likely require a hit, which seems like a long shot.
