Well, that’s embarrassing

Knocked a panel out on the scoreboard.

This is why we can’t have nice things, Kyle.

Bottom 4

Tucker takes one just off the corner, 1-0. Way outside, 2-0. Way inside, 3-0. Tucker swinging 3-0 DEMOLISHES A FASTBALL TO DEEP RIGHT AND GONE! 2-1 Astros!

Julks with nobody out and the bases empty takes one just inside, 1-0. Flies a ball down the RF line and in to the seats, 1-1. Bounced, 2-1. Grounder up the middle and through! Runner on 1st, nobody out.

Tucker’s bomb was 397 feet.

Meyers up, pickoff to first and he’s out… That’s brutal, rook. 1 out. Takes one up, 1-0. Looking at a replay, and he got caught mid lead step and couldn’t get back. Swings over a breaker, 1-1. Swings through a fucking spinning slider meat ball right down broadway, 1-2. Up, 2-2. Fouled off a fastball. Fouls off another fastball. He’s way behind these but battling. Slider chopped to short, easy 6-3 putout. 2 outs.

Dubon takes a slider at the knees, squares around then pulls back, 1-1. Way out, 2-1. Tries to pull a slider on the outside corner, roller to 3rd 5-3. 3 outs.

End 4. 2-1 Astros

Top 5

Schoop leads off and takes 2 seamer low, 1-0. Rips a fastball up the middle for a single. Schoop’s first hit of the season.

Rogers up with a runner on first and nobody out, Takes a bouncing fast ball, 1-0. Pours one in, 1-1. Swings over a changeup, 1-2. Bounces a curve that hops over Maldy. Wild pitch 2 for Framber, runner on 2nd, 2-2 the count. Takes one off the outside corner, 3-2. Didn’t miss by much. Roped up the middle for a single, Schoop scores easily. Fucking Framber. 2-2 the score, runner 1st.

I swear that Meyers couldn’t throw me out.

Framber is bouncing a lot of pitches

Nice pickoff

No idea what Rogers was thinking

Nobody out, runner on first.

Kreidler takes one outside. Takes a change up off the plate, 2-0. Swings through a 2 seamer up, 2-1. Way low and in, 3-1. Framber is all over the fucking place to the fucking 9 hole hitter. Popped to right in foul territory, Tucker to the corner wall and makes the catch right at the wall! Made that look easy in foul territory. 1 out.

Vierling takes a fastball right down the middle, 0-1. Vierling is murdering the Astros so far, 5-6 with a walk. Bounced curve that would’ve hit Vierling if he hadn’t leapt out of the way, and Maldy makes a nice stop to keep it from being another WP, 1-1. Picked off Rogers! 1-3-4 and tagged out. He took a step toward second for no reason on a step back pickoff. 2 outs. Vierling chops to Bregman makes a great pick on the short hop and fires to first, 5-3.

Md 5, Tied at 2. Framber at 69 pitches (nice!).

Schoop had a good read and was going on the crack, but the throw was not exactly a laser either.

Wow. That was also embarrassing

Jeebus that was hilarious.

I hope it’s a hr.

It’s a foot short

Bottom 5

Maldy takes one at the top of the zone, 0-1. Gets an absolute cookie spinning slider down the middle, easy fly ball F9. 1 out.

Pena takes a ball out, 1-0. Slaps one foul down the 1st base line, 1-1. Fouls off a high slider, 1-2. Fouls off a fastball on the outside corner, Takes a fastball at the knees, strike 3. 2 outs.

Bregman takes a ball, ball 2 up and away, Fastball at the bottom of the zone, 2-1. Driver a slider to left, off the top of the Crawford Boxes, gets thrown out by 15 feet at 2nd. Bregman thought it was gone, nope. It hit just below the yellow line at the far corner of the Crawford Boxes. Stupid. Stupid. Stupid.

End 5. 2-2.

Nope Alex.

You’re out in a hilarious manner.

Definitely SportsCenter material.

What the hell is wrong between Framber and Maldy tonight???

This inning has been a defensive clusterfuck.

Dammit.

Passed ball then Peña can’t field the ball cleanly.

Stros not exactly putting on a masterclass in fundamentals tonight
