Toro gets carved up on 2 pitches, then hit by a 1-2 pitch
Brantley F8 in left center
Yuli takes a ball as Toro steals 2nd, singles into left, Toro breaks to second until the ball cleared then dives safely into 3rd
And Toro gutshot himself sliding in to third as well.

Tucker with runners on the corners, taps one thru the left side of 2nd, run scores
Lynn hit 97 on that 0-1 pitch, Tucker was late.
Heck of an adjustment to simply reach for the pitch he did put in play rather than rolling over on it.
Amazing what good fundamentals will do for a talented player.
Díaz Ks swinging
Diaz took two hittable pitches , then flailed at a 58 footer.
Once, once, in the freight train days I said something funny enough for Kev to comment on it.
Reddick Ks on a foul tip
End 5
Astros 5-2
We may just have to be satisfied with a net +2 run production from Díaz today.
More than one not-shitty at bat would be great.
Solak down 0-2, doubles on a hanging curve
Solak must have some compromising photos of Greinke. He’s thrown him an entire jar of cookies today.
Replay showed Solak pause his swing after his foot came down.
And Grienke saying “No!”
Gallo grounds out 6-3 in the shift, Solak to 3rd
Strom to the mound as Sneed (joy) is warming.
Trevino battles, narrowly misses an rbi on a dribbler down 1B line that rolls just foul, gets the run in on a 5-3 FC
Guzmán 3-2, Ks looking
9 Ks so far for Grienke. Of course Pitching Ninja is all over his work:
