I think putrid is being too kind.

Can’t get rolling until 9pm. But that’ll help on the upcoming trip.

Another leadoff walk. Yay.

The chucklefuck behind home plate is el terrible, which is Spanish for the terrible. Therefore, you’ve been treated to what qualifies as a perfectly average MLB umpiring performance this evening.

Crap, how many walks is that tonight? You get a walk, and you get a walk, and …

That’s six. So far.

Gotta to step away for a bit. Here’s hoping that the 'Stros late inning offense wakes up.

Zero for the Astros batters.

I always liked how they took “What Can You Do With a Drunken Sailor” and turned it into a majestic pugilistic anthem.

I thought it was a neat graphic, too.

Ok, it’s time for Astros After Dark.
