Singleton carved the fuck up
McCormick singles…bases juiced for Altuve
Keep your head in Jose!
Altuve hacks out on a pitch in the dugout
Astros strand the bases loaded
To the 9th…11-5 AZ
Another pathetic inning.
The one clutch hit couldn’t even score a run.
Offense has been ok. 10 hits, 5 runs…but they’ve never been competitive in this game.

Right, because that hasn’t cost the Stros a game or 2 recently
12-5.
Tell it to the computer.
Walk to Smith
To the bottom of the 9th…12-5
Sewald in
Heyward, who’s in for Alvarez, but we don’t know why…3-1…takes strike two in the on deck circle. Good fucking grief. Whiffs at a pitch in the dugout.
Tucker with a bloop single. His first hit since June.
Whitcomb, pinch hitting for Bregman…flies out
Diaz with an RBI double
