Caratini GIDP on the next pitch
In seven innings, the Astros have made eight outs on the first pitch of an at bat.
I like Caratini but a lineup with him batting clean up is not serious about winning a game
End of seven…still 1-0
Castro with a lead off double
Dubin with a heads up play on a comebacker to tag out Castro. Score it a 1U FC.
And Dubin out
Sousa in…rolls a 4-6-3 double play on the first pitch.
1-0 Twins
Smith lines a single off the top of the LF wall
Go figure, you run straight at the runner and you can get the out without a rundown.
That’s so crazy that it just might work.
Hummel with a sac bunt. Smith to 2B
Dubon grounds out 6-3 on the first pitch. Can to 3B
I wonder how much faster Guillorme would be without that beard.
Blah. Guillorme grounds out weakly 4-3.
To the 9th…1-0 Twins
You can’t say goddamn on the air!!
Forget it, nobody’s listening anyway.
Bader with the Golden Sombrero
Sousa with a 1-2-3 ninth
Astros need a run, top of the order due up
Pena draws a 4-pitch lead off walk
Diaz hacks out on ball six
