Hope spring eternal.
Greinke off to a good start with a quick 1-2-3 1st
Altuve leads off with a single
McCormick follows with a single, Astros on the corners
McCormick to 2B on a wild pitch, but not far enough away for Altuve to advance
Bregman grounds out 4-3, Altuve scores, McCormick to 3B
Correa works a walk…which I guess is ok, but he took some very hittable pitches and would have liked to have seen him drive that run in with the infield in
Tucker!!!
3-run dinger!
Jones swings at three curveballs that bounce to end the inning.
But the Astros put up a four spot…4-0
Jones is just not ready for this level.
Greinke good in the 2nd…4-0 Astros
Machete absolutely screwed on that 3-2 pitch
Maldonado…3-0…takes strike one down the middle…takes strike two down the middle…takes strike three on the edge. Guess it’s a new bat and he didn’t want to nick it
Machete should’ve swung at 3-1.
Yep. I get taking 3-0, but then he threw a cookie 3-1.
2-out single is the Padres first hit
Another good inning as Greinke strikes out Pham. Pham bitching and moaning about the strike two call, breaks his bat.
4-0 Astros
He’s a manly man.
Dammit! Bregman did the same fucking thing…took a 3-1 hanging fastball right down the fucking middle so he can protect against the slider. Maddening
Back to back walks to Bregman and Correa…two on, one out for Tucker
