Bregman deep fly out to center under hr pump
Pressly coming in
Just missed that one. Gave it a good ride.
Carpenter 3U
Haase 1-2, K
McKinstry 3-1 putout
Astros get that Tiger monkey off their back. 6-2 winners
Man, Press was DEALING today. HIs stuff was extra nasty.
Waiting for Abreu to hit one out. I am SO glad he is an Astro.
8-2.
Good win. Sounds like the Astros played more like we are used to seeing the last six seasons.
The Astros have had an early April “problem” for a few years now. They have been 2 games above or below .500 in mid april basically every season other than 18
Makes sense—I’m blacked out of that market.
Every team has worn the swoosh for a couple years now.
Just to expand on this because I find it interesting. Records at which point the Astros started to “take off” and be the team we remember from that season.
2015 4-6 wom 14 of next 15
2016 8-18 turnaround started but we all know it was not enough
2017 4-4 won 8 of next 9
2018 started 6-1 and never really looked back
2019 2-5 won next 10
2020
2021 started 4-0 but was 7-10, won 8/10 but didn’t really take off til june
2022 7-9 won 15 of next 17
I always forget how bad 2016 started. After that 8-18 start they went 76-60 which is a 90/91 win pace
Oops typo
Missing the spark plug: curious as to the records w/o Altuve…
