Mariners @ Astros, August 14, 2020

How much more rope for Valdez? He has 87 pitches.

Im guessing that’s it for him.

I think Framber leaves the game with an ERA of less than 2 and IF the Astros can hang on and win in nine innings he will have a 1-2 record.

ERA is 1.90. He’s 0-2

I’m not sure a 10-run lead is enough to put the second string in

Bregman probably makes that play, maybe.

Waiting for Manfred to announce the mercy rule to end blowouts more quickly.

Bailey did his job. Who’s next?

Seeing Stanton with the bat reminds me he was a career .333 hitter.

Runner starts on 2nd if you’re losing by 5 after 5 to make the ending more exciting

Cole won his 20th straight regular season game tonight. The only loss in that stretch: WS Game 1.

10 run lead after 5 complete. Game over.

In Denial League we had 15 after 5. It was surprisingly common.

Man. I’m almost feeling sorry for Altuve.

We did 15 after 5, 10 after 7

Don’t know what the HS rule is now, but it was crazy when I last coached. No 10-run rule in the regular season, but it applied in the playoffs.

We may have had 10 after 7 too, but we have a 2.5 hour time limit, so if it’s that bad, we probably don’t get past 7 anyway.

It’s a 10-run game, Toro, ump is looking for strikes. Swing the fucking bat

That seems completely ass-backwards.
