The Pitching

I just hope the Astros give it their all and the good Lord willing they come out on top.

thats what the opposing batters have been saying.

Tonight is what happens after all the bragging about pitching. BBGs listen.

I just hope they don’t go into a mini tailspin. Feels like that’s been the pattern during the current run of greatness.

So… more runs surrendered yesterday than during the entire win streak?

That’s completely on me. I’ll own that. I’m open to appropriate penance suggestions to appease the BBG’s.

Bucket of extra-hot Nashville style fried chicken. No beverage.

On it.

Handedness aside, Framber is the new Brandon Webb…

Rangers would not have been my first guess.

It’s JV’s day…

Assuming continued health (may the baseball gods be with him), Verlander should move past Pedro and Fergie Jenkins in to the 12th spot on the all time strikeout list by the end of the season.

During LeMahieu’s 9th inning AB (3:23:28, 1-0 count; 1-on; no outs - just b/f Judge’s 3-run HR!!!), our broadcasters couldn’t wait to flash the graphic on the screen showing the stat @ .140, but by the end of the inning it was .151

NY Yankees – Lowest Avg (7-GM span vs opponent)

.140 – 2022 vs Astros (b/f Judge HR + 1 more hit)

.150 – 1913 vs Senators

.156 – 1908 vs WS; 1968 vs Twins; 1914 vs WS

Here ya go…

Next your going to tell me that a play by play guy saying “no hitter” or “perfect game” causes a batter to get a hit… .151 is still dang impressive and the lowest average in over 100 years. sheesh.
