Dbacks @ Astros, September 18, 2021

McCullers with a 9-pitch 1-2-3 first.

Not sure what Altuve was thinking there.

Altuve takes a meatball down the middle for strike one, takes a meatball down the middle for strike two, takes a meatball down the middle for strike three. Not sure of the purpose of that at bat.

Really battled that at bat

Bregman walks

Yordan!

2-run line drive that killed a family of four in Torchy’s

That ball was simply destroyed.

After one…2-0 Astros

The team’s two best hitters both looked like that dude you see at the putt putt golf batting cages who plainly has never before in his life swung a baseball bat.

This is my last ballgame to watch before 2.5 weeks in Ireland. They better take it home while I’m away.

Are you going to stay in that place that’s so remote you have to gather peat moss off the bog to fuel the fire to boil your breakfast?

I can watch from the jungles of Borneo, but Dublin is a black hole.

Why would I go anywhere else?

The earliest game I can watch starts at 2AM. The latest game I can watch will be over at 6AM.

It requires dedication.

Wi-fi? Other than that, I guess you wouldn’t. Maybe if you go up to the top of the rock you can catch a whiff of cell signal.

The local has electricity now, doesn’t it?

I’ll catch a few innings. You’ll be sure I’ll let the GZ know.

Seriously, no wired internet where we are but there’s at least LTE and possibly 5G (haven’t been in 2 years) so I use my old iPhone as a hotspot with a locally procured sim card.
