Altuve strikes out against the reliever Senzatela, and after 3, it’s 7-3 Astros.
The good news is that Gordon is pounding the strike zone.
The bad news is he just allowed a 2-out HR to make it 7-4.
46 strikes, 17 balls so far for Gordon. He’s allowed 4 runs but at least he understood the assignment.
Good grief.
A flare to right, an infield single, and an 0-2 HBP, and Gordon is chased with Blubaugh coming in.
It’s impossible to overstate how bad this pitching staff is

Blubaugh gets a popup to strand the bases loaded
Middle of four…7-4 Astros
7-5 now
Better keep scoring. 7 won’t win this.
This is embarrassing from the Astros’ pitching staff, and it will cost Josh Miller his job first unless it turns around soon.
Stop throwing “hit me” pitches with two strikes.
Blubaugh flirting with disaster here.
He should be kicked in the nuts by the offense like the rest of the Astros’ pitching staff.
I’ll be shocked if 11 would in this.
The problem with this staff is that the only pitches that aren’t “hit me” pitches are balls.

Halfway…7-5 Astros
I was just thinking to myself wondering how many runs it will take to win this game. I settled on 10 but my confidence in that is like 20%

It’s really hard to be this bad as a major league pitching staff unless you are trying to do so.
Walker with a leadoff single
I’m honestly surprised he’s still employed.
