Tigers @ Astros, June 15, 2026

Watches a meatball down the middle, flies out swinging at a ball over his head.

I don’t mind Altuve being aggressive there, even with that heavy thumper Taylor Trammell hitting behind him.

I’m not sure we discussed Loperfido batting cleanup the other day. Went about as expected.

Astros out of ABS challenges. At least that one was close.

Murray in and he gets immediately shelled. It’s 8-3

Stretchtime…8-3 Tigers

We’ve seen Altuve tomahawk that pitch dozens of times. He just missed it.

I think we can end the Jayden Murray experiment.

Yeah, that at bat doesn’t bother me. I want to see him try to drive in a run there.

Isn’t that where groundhogs emerge on Feb 2 each year?

Timing is everything

Abreu in for the 9th…gives up the requisite home run, Keith’s third on the night, which quadruples his season total.

I like Teng. If this were only a few years ago, the Astros would have well on their way of turning him into a #1 or #2 starter. But, here we are.

It’s Waguespack’s name.

He was a perfectly good bullpen piece who’s been forced into a rotation role he isn’t suited for because all their other starters are disasters. Still a nice little pickup, to Brown’s credit.
