Abreu gets the pill.

Verdugo Ks on a nice back foot slider.

Arroyo, who looks like a gnome, singles to center.

Dalbec Ks swinging.

We’re eight games ahead in the bye playoff group, so nights off might be an afforded luxury

Sanchez 4-3.

2-1 sawx at the stretch

Abreu has a nice slider.

Sawamura pitching.

Jake hits another grounder off the handle, 5-3

Jake is getting pretty good at that

Too bad it’s not a valuable skill.

This team is so out of sorts at the plate it’s ridiculous.

Maldonado Ks.

Altuve hacking at pitches that almost hit him, gets a drop shot single in left center.

Yuli gets the worst strike call of the night.

And he pops out to Arroyo in shallow left.

More futility.

Should Altuve have been on second there? I’m not sure, but it pissed me off to see players walk/jog to first. With two outs down by a run, give me some hussle please.

Fair question.

It was in the air a long time.
