Javier throwing absolute pus.
5-1
Fucking Christ, Javier. Why not just put it on a fucking tee next time? That shitball was right down the fucking middle with 2 strikes.
A little bit in his defense, he’s had to throw it through a fucking donut. Twice he’s struck Benintendi out and got fucked. There’s two runs right there.
KC’s scrub had managed that donut just fine
It’s bedtime
That’s because the Astros are taking meatballs and swinging at sliders that bounce three feet in front of the plate.
