Having a few guys in the lineup whose hitting zone is bigger than the strike zone can present a real problem for opposing pitchers.
Tucker’s discomfort got Siri in the game.
Win!
Ballgame!
The young guns come thru.
Solomon gets the W, Siri and Chas deliver the goods in the 8th.
It’s dove season, use a bb gun next time.
Way to go Solomon.
1st career W.
Well earned.
He golfed the hell out of it.
Huge comeback win. Greinke’s situation has a big question mark on it.
Dropped the head of the bat on it.
Off-speed breaking pitch at the knees or a little lower. Opposing pitchers should figure out some day he hits off-speed stuff.
You could also draw a parallel between the sounds in Altuve’s head when he’s at the plate and Will Ferrell banging a cowbell.
YUGE win!
Salvaged my Sunday sports day.
I hope the Angels will be as lifeless against the Astros as they were against the A’s…
The didn’t fear that motherfucking reaper after all. Way to harvest a win. Like Romeo and Juliet.
Perfect timing for this!
I hear Springer saying, “Let’s have FUN!”
Other things that impressed me in this game:
- Two pivotal Strom visits.
- (2:20 in Highlights) Huge catch by Jake on what is innocuously labeled a SF by Kole in Top of the 5th
… as long as it is not too extreme or too predictable.
