That’s all for Sheffield
The ball never hit the ground until Trammell threw it back to 2B.
Brantley says “Fuck the shift. I am hitting this ball through it.”
Why?
B6:
Vest in for the M’s…
Altuve caught stealing at 3B
Altuve had that beat, but his slide stopped him short of the bag.
Fucking why?
Don’t know…especially with Bregman and Alvarez due up
B6:
Bregman takes a fastball down the pipe for strike three.
That was a disappointing inning.
5-2 Astros
Clearly the only way Altuve scores is steal 3rd and WP.
What was he questioning?
Even Angel would have gotten that one right 80% of the time.
T7:
Abreu in for the Astros…
Moore pops out F3
T7:
Torrens…currently mired in an 0 for 20 streak…gets down 0-2…strikes out swinging.
I am unabashedly rooting for Abreu.
T7:
Crawford strikes out swinging
5-2 Astros at the Stretch…
He delivered some cheddar that inning.
Abreu was sharp.
More of that, please.
They’re welcome to bring that Abreu in anytime. I like him a lot more than I like the one who loses the strike zone.
When they renovated the Dome and took down the scoreboard, Jon Lindsay was County Judge. He asked for some lightbulbs when they took down the scoreboard and the contractor brought him a basketful. Years after he gave me a couple of them. They’re just pretty normal sorts of light bulbs. I’ve never known what to do with them, but I like having them.
