Tiggers at Astros, Cinco de Mayo 22

Altuve back in the lineup.

Urquidy gives up a one out double in the RF gap to Grossman but gets a couple of sharp grounders to Altuve to escape the inning.

Ding dong!

ALTUVE! Off the Schlumberger sign, and it’s 1-0 Astros.

1 pitch, 1 run. I like it.

Brantley singles through the shift

Bregman swings 0-2 at one above his eyes. Remarkably, he missed.

Alvarez rung up on a pitch that maybe brushed the bottom of the zone.

Gurriel pops up.

End 1, and the Astros take a 1-0 lead.

Announcers start the inning by talking about the Astros starters being on a streak of 7 straight games going at least 6 innings, so thanks for that jinx.

Miggy drops one into the RF corner and somehow only gets a single.

Candelario grounds into a 5-4-3 DP that’s about as casual as you’ll see.

Cabrera was glued to 1B

Shiftfuck

Castro (Tigers edition) taps into a shifted single

Urquidy strikes out uber-prospect Torkelson and that’s it for the top of the 2nd.

Anybody have Insight on the Detroit rebuild plan?

So far it ain’t working.

Get better players

Supply chain issues no doubt

Tucker grounds 3-1 on the first pitch
