Rays @ Astros, Independence Day 2026

Waste not, want not.

Other than the walk; fucking nice job by Javier.

Bob Gibson said “an intentional walk is a waste of three pitches”.

Other than the walk and the home run…

These guys are running wild on Diaz.

Diaz had a 0.00% shot at that guy. Or at most. Diaz ain’t the issue.

Stretch time…8-5 Rays.

I don’t know that I fully agree. His throws are usually a lot more accurate than they’ve been today.

A couple have been high, for sure. But even if he puts that on the money the runner is safe. He had a huge running lead. The Astros just don’t think holding runners is important. It’s not part of their overall pitching philosophy and hasn’t been in a while.

Trammell with a leadoff single.

Allen doubles , Trammell to 3B.

Two RISP for Altuve, who has a double and a triple today…

Altuve walks to load the bases

Bases drunk for Yordan, nobody out…

We’ll get a pitching change

Yordan flies out F9, Trammell scores on the sac, Allen to 3B

Paredes singles to LF, Allen scores

Profesional hitter.

Walker carved the fuck up.

Dezenzo pinch hitting for Wade. Which means another pitching change.
