Rangers @ Astros, May 22, 2022

Lots do. Maybe it is only ridiculing his lack of gracefulness at times. Dunno.

To the 9th…5-1 Astros

He’s a good defender, but he is kind of awkward at times. It’s part of his charm.

He runs well, is a good glove, and a solid and accurate arm. Nothing awkward other than he’s tall and lean.

Taylor in to try to close it out and is greeted by a leadoff single.

HBP puts two out n, nobody out

Due to his stride, he has an ability to look like he’s not moving as fast as he actually is.

Big punch out for the first out

That’s it for Taylor, Pressly in for what’s now a save situation.

I wonder if Taylor gets a kickback from Pressly for turning this into a save opportunity.

Point of order.

Bowling pin celebration was inspired by his gyroscopic approach to balls in play.

Even his teammates refer to him ‘baby giraffe’.

Yeah, he’s a bit gangling looking, but he’s not unathletic.

Base hit loads the bases and brings the tying run to the plate

Another hit 5-2 now, tying run on base

Finish this mess Ryan.

Y’all several a minute or two ahead of me. Scheiße.

I told him to do that.

4-6-3 ends the game. Astros win!

Whew. On a 3-1 pitch.

I would have bet all my worldly possessions on a FB, but I think he threw a breaking pitch.

Good weekend.

And I made some homemade salsa and margaritas today.
