I can forgive everything that happened last half inning except the walk. Inexcusable.

Toro in the OF for the first time.

Several other changes defensively.

Altuve faces Sewald.

1-2, fouls, F8

He kills the Astros…you do not pitch to him there.

Or at least not throw pitch 1 right down the fucking middle.

Pressly just hung one.

On 4 straight pitches nowhere near the zone no less.

Yuli pops out to short.

Yep, fuck him then.

Pitch to him.

Maybe not the first pitch down the middle?

Can we agree on this?

Yordan takes a slider low 1-0, 2-0, swings thru a FB up in the zone, takes a FB inside 3-1, late on a FB down the middle, grounds out on a slider 4-3.

Tough 5-4 loss.

3 runs in the 1st, 2 runs in the 9th.

We’ll ain’t that a kick in the junk.

I was telling Seattle to pitch to Yordan there.

Hanging slider meant to be down and in.

Toro is hitting .174, and I am sitting here thinking “put him on.” The leadoff walk was the killer.

A memorable dance on the mound…

Yep.

He was missing the whole inning but that may have been his only hanger.

Maybe the liner but I don’t recall.

Oh well.

Yep.

Toro has an OPS about .900 against the Astros now.

I just wouldn’t pitch to the fucker.

Walks will kill you.

Seattle has underperformed against us, still a gift to them tonight. Would like to have more A’s wins to lessen the aggravation

Yeah, I got a little salty there, apologies.

Let’s beat the hell out of 'em tomorrow.

No apology needed.
