T8:
Neris in for the Astros
Chisholm flies out F8 at the track
Rojas strikes out looking
Soler pops out F3 in foul territory
Great job by Neris. 5-4 Astros
The walk after 0-2 prior to the HR was throwing gasoline on the fire though

So i’ve got the Marlins broadcast on and noticed Rod Allen in the booth doing the analyst job. Apparently the ex-Tigers broadcaster was hired just the year to do some games. If I’m the Marlins PxP guy I’d be awfully careful when claiming a chair at the beginning of the broadcast. Or maybe the production crew puts name tags on the chairs so there aren’t any incidents.
27 LOB for the Astros in this series…
They have been really bad at running the bases for a while now.
Awful bunt, Siri!
Damn near impossible to get the pitch he bunted at down
Exactly why he should have laid off
“Coach, you told me to bunt so I did”

Head in for the Marlins
Peña…0-2…1-2…foul…foul…foul…hit by pitch
Castro…0-2…1-2…foul…foul…foul…singles up the middle, Peña to 2B
Siri bunts the first pitch, straight up F3. Terrible, just terrible
Altuve hacks at the first pitch that bounces in the LH box…checks his swing on a pitch that bounces in the LH box…hacks and fouls a pitch that would have hit him in the face…foul…lays off a pitch that bounces in the LH box, progress…homers to LF, Peña scores, Castro scores. That was fun!
Brantley…full count…walks
And that’s all for Head
His error cost three runs. He made up for that, so he’s even.

Well, it was plenty ugly at times, but a win is a win. Gotta clean some shit up.
