Rockies at Astros, 6/26/24

Arrighetti gets a 1-pitch pop out and 2 K in the first.

Yordan in left, Salazar catching, Diaz DH

I wonder if we’ll see Tucker again this year.

Astros down in order

Another 1-2-3.

Arrighetti 20 pitches, 16 strikes

We’re speeding through this one.

Diaz line drive single
Peña tailor made GIDP
Singleton F8

K, K, fly out. Maybe everyone has a plane to catch.

Day game before an off day. It’s only fun/fine if the Astros win.

Three routine groundouts and that’s three innings in 30 minutes

Check swing 5-3
First pitch single past a diving Bregman
Pop foul out to Bregman
6-3 ends the inning

B4:

Altuve broken bat single to left
Pop-up Bregman
Altuve steals 2b easily
Yordan drilled in the leg. Just above the knee, goes down to first ok.
Altuve steals third, Yordan stays put
Diaz singles through the right side, and we’re on the board!
Jake slow grounder to second, beats the relay, Yordan to 3b
Jake steals 2b uncontested
Singleton K looking

End 4, 1-0 Astros

I don’t know what Singleton was waiting for, but he missed a good pitch to hit.

Arrightetti gives up a 2-out double but then gets the backwards K. 59 pitches through 5.

Halfway through, 1-0 Astros.

Man, Cave is an unlucky guy today: every pitch he’s seen has been right on an edge.

Seriously. wtf is up with this now? I’m so sick and fucking tired of the Astros minimizing injury news… or do other teams do this same shit? I feel like this crap started with Luhnow.

Apparently the crowd voted to play “Macarena” between innings, so maybe it is time to end democracy after all.

Just walked in, saw a Catcher run around, and Atuve driveing him in from 2B

B5:

Loperfido flies to shallow CF
Salazar doubles down the 1b line
Altuve singles to LF, Salazar scores!
Bregman 6-3

End 5, 2-0 Astros
