Let's play two, because we have to: part two Astros @ Orioles 4/30/26

One walk promptly comes around to score so what the heck, let’s walk another and see what happens.

B4
McCullers pitching

Ward - walk

I was on a call and have missed what’s happened but the Orioles have scored and now have runners on 1st and 2nd with 2 out

2 run triple by Taveras

Wilson - P6

Orioles score 3, it’s 10-3 Astros after 4

Well what happens is that walk scores, too. Quelle surprise.

I’ve been meaning to talk about that weird nook they have in right field. I don’t understand why it’s there. That’s twice this series balls have found their way in there and allowed the batter an extra base.

10-3 after 4…

got em right where we want em!

I hate all these walks.

How can a MLB pitcher walk 3 batters in 4 innings with a big lead?

T5
Cameron Foster pitching

Johnson - K swinging
Shewmake - liner into center for a single
Matthews - grounds to short, thrown into the dirt, should be picked but isn’t, E6
Alvarez - wild pitch moves runners to 2nd and 3rd, trainers out to check on Basallo

2nd and 3rd 1 out
Yordan - K swinging
Paredes - passed ball scores a run, wild pitch, whatever, L7

Astros up 11-3

As a team, we entered today’s game with 170 walks. By far the most of any team in the league. The pitching staff is beyond infuriating.

Middle of 5th, Replacements 11 Oreo-Holes 3!!

Things got away from him in the 4th but all in all good start for Lance

I don’t care what Abreu does as long as he doesn’t walk anybody.

Buckle up, buttacup.

Welp.

Abreu needs a phantom IL stint as much as anybody I have ever seen. He needs to get away from the game for a full week or more

Man, get this guy the fuck off the team, what the fuck are they doing.
