Rangers @ Astros, September 2, 2020

Two of my lawyer friends, one a former partner, died this week or last also. Seaver was 75, which I will be in about three weeks. Gulp.

Brantley watches Altuve get caught stealing

End 3

I’m not old enough for Tom Seaver to have been 75.

Sigh.

Condolences on the losses.

Thanks.

Shocking to me because I do not feel old so I do not think of my friends as old either. Both were in their 80s, but that’s all I know.

Taveras 6-3 in the shift

Shit

Kiner Falefa homers into the first row of the Crawford Boxes.

Arlington has taken better advantages of the CBs so far this series.

Choo battles, walks

Solak F7

I really fucking can’t stand Choo.

Gallo up, Strom out

Talking gameplan with Gallo up?

Gallo hooks one into right, fielded by Reddick on 2 hops for a long single Choo to 3rd

Andrus pops first pitch, F6

Mid 4

2-1

Brantley misses a bunt attempt, fouls, Ks looking

Yuli 4-3 up the middle/shift
