Royals @ Astros 8-25-21

Nice play Graveman!

That’ll do.

I’m perfectly fine not letting Perez beat us here too.

Late to the party. Had a lovely afternoon tea in The Woodlands with my daughter, get into the car for the drive home with the Astros leading 3-1. McCullers promptly loads the bases with the bottom of their order, I’m trying not to wreck my car in the process. Pitching change. Uh oh, Javier? ā€œHe can’t be trusted to throw strikes, Dusty!ā€, I scream. Then the awful realization strikes…not the 1st pitch, get (the Royals) ahead fastball. Too late. 5-3. I may or may not have had a mild stroke. I had no reasonable expectations we would score late, but, here we are and Graveman just made a great play to give us a real chance to improve upon our record in tie games. All that to say, I made it home safely, and let’s get a W!!!

Great job, Graveman.

Let’s get the ghost runner home and win this game.

Bregman due to be the runner.

Interesting test.

Well if he didn’t drive in the winning run, Bregman can certainly go ahead and score it.

Masterful pitching. Not many above knee-high.

Great swing by Tucker

I guess they won’t walk Jake just to get to Castro because Altuve is after him, but I wouldn’t expect Jake to get a great pitch to hit.

Pulled those hands in so well.

Great that he took 2nd.
