Yeah. He’s been hurt most of the year. Only really active the last few weeks.
Poor Castro. Three punch outs, and then finally hits one well…right at em.

Altuve pops out. It’ll be nice to have him back at some point.
And on we go to the top of the 9th.
1 out in the 9th.

Wait, what’s this about Tucker?
He’s back. Could have him and possibly even “Alex Bregman“ in the game tomorrow.
Who?
If Bregman plays, where will Diaz be? LF?
It did. Nicely done.
Jose looked somewhat disinterested tonight. No homers in August yet, right? I cannot get used to him with a .270 average.
Good job on pbp, Mr. Walsh.
Garcia has done a good job of making me forget he’s a rookie.
He was tough last night.
Speaking of tough nights, how was the first night with Kaiser?
Hey, thanks for asking, Mark. We made lots of progress getting over his skittishness with me. As far as I know so far, he has not done any marking of territory indoors. I am watching him closely and taking him out frequently. I believe this will work out well for both of us.
Thank you. I was happy to do it.
I was thinking about the two of you yesterday, Jim. I was wondering how you two were getting along.
Well that was fortuitous to get an answer despite being too busy/lazy to ask the question.
Wonderful to hear he is home and you two are starting your life together.
Very happy for you both.
