Peña hits a wall-scraper, gets four RBI. Yordan hits the fucking scoreboard and gets…one.
Moment of silence for that ball’s family.
Man, Astros are swinging out of their shoes.
He hit that ball so hard it wiped out all its progeny
Paredes draws an 11-pitch walk
Altuve…rally killer…grounds into 5-4-3 double play
But the Astros lead 6-2 after two.
Things were going well in the inning, but Altuve decided we were having too much fun, I guess
I think it had something to do with the fact that the ball was barely moving when it was cut off. Conine and Meyers vs a pane of glass would be a captivating contest.
THAT’S WHY YOU RUN IT OUT, YAINER
FFS, Blanco.
Like it better when we’re hitting homers and NOT giving them up.
The question had never occurred to me before, but the catcher gets credit for the putout on a strikeout?
ETA: I guess that’s not much different from the 1B getting the putout on a grounder.
Yes. Unless he has to throw to 1B to complete the strikeout, then the first baseman gets it.
Blanco out, DLS in
Halfway…6-4 Astros
He hates these balls!
I can’t believe we’re wasting this season by Yordan.
Dude is on another planet. Or from another planet.
They wasted their last challenge and gave up that bomb.
I feel really lucky to be able to watch this guy most nights.
