Stros @ Phillies, 8/27/24

Verlander out, BTW. Scott in

Realmuto with a 2-out double on an almost terrific catch by Jakeā€¦off his glove over the shoulder

Through sixā€¦4-0

PeƱa. Strikes out on ball five at his nuts

I swear, if PeƱa just decided for 10 at bats, he wasnā€™t going to wing at any pitch, heā€™d walk 8 times and strike out twice.

Astros down quickly. At the Stretch, 4-0 Phillie

Ferguson in. Phillies on the corners, one out

Line drive, but JP3 on the spot

Bohm pops up behind 2B, the Bad News Bears let it drop between three players. Run scores

Your description is more informative than gameday.

End of sevenā€¦5-0

The division lead will be gone by this weekend. Sad.

This team is trying really hard to undo all the good work they did getting that 5 game lead

To be fair, it wasnā€™t an easy play. Just a tweener. But you could here Bizetā€™s ā€œCarmenā€ playing.

Tomorrow is about as big as a must win game as there has been in a long time.

DubĆ³n tries to bunt his way on. It was a good one. Ruled out, but Astros challenging. Heā€™s clearly safe.

Yep, overturned. Bunt single.

Altuve hacks out at a pitch that bounces in the other batters box

This has been a nice trip down memory lane, but I donā€™t need to see any more of the 2013 defense.
