Nice 5 pitch inning by the bats
And Astros make 3 outs on 5 pitches.
Paredes for the 4th
Well, we got one good game from Mr O
This has been fugly today.
May have to start day drinking.
Bregman’s complete lack of offensive contribution is getting annoying.
The most lackluster 20 game on base streak in quite a while.
Perez has thrown less pitches in 4 innings than Odorizzi threw in the 2nd.
You’ll have to catch up to me.
Getting on base is great, if it leads to runs. He needs to be moving runners, driving them in. Drawing a 2-out walk in the 8th ain’t helping when he leaves 6 guys on.
Where did his power go?
Perez hasn’t had a strike-out yet.
I can’t remember the last time Bregman turned on a ball
Strike 3! Dammit
Man, today is one of them days. Astros just can’t seem to do anything well.
I was looking at his stats the other day which indicate he is having an above average season offensively compared to the league (OPS+ 134) and was racking my brain to come up with any memories of impactful at bats.
The proverbial stomping on of the dicks…
That is why I think OPS means nothing. At least to my feeble mind, it does not. His OBP is good, but what is his SLG? That is the production part.
Javier is a magician.
If the Astros don’t score a couple after that escape, they deserve the loss.
Ump helped a little
