Stanton:
Ball, Ball, Ball, grounds into a double play.

That worked!
He should not be the setup man for a contending team because of his command issues.
RUNS FOR THE HOME TEAM NOW!!
This might be greedy, but I want some vaunting from the Astrosā offense, now.
Not a strike you schlub
Bottom 8
Straw:
Ball, Ball, called strike (was outside), foul, called strike three on a slider.
And it changed the entire at bat.
Fuck!
That 2-0 pitch to Straw was fucking horseshit and changed the whole AB and maybe inning
Maldonado:
Ball, called strike, Ball, swings through a sweeping slider, Ball, grounds out to SS.
Garcia:
Ball, called strike on a slider, swings at a low changeup (would have been ball two), swings at the exact same pitch for strike three.
Iām very glad I didnāt invest my evening in actually watching this whole game. The three times Iāve sat down and watched for a few minutes is exactly what I expected to see. A bunch of guys that look fully uninterested in winning a baseball game.
At least the shitty lulls are predictable, but man, what a pathetic effort against a guy who has really struggled recently.
This is embarrassing.
Fuck this ump.
Coleās playing with a zone 15% bigger.
Also the Astros batters have been fucking putrid.
Nah. They just donāt play well against bad teams.
I really miss Diaz. He canāt come back soon enough.
I really donāt understand it. They go from 0 to 100, and then 100 to 0. Itās bizarre.
Iām missing Mike Brantley.
Well, we will probably see a Chapman-Altuve rematch in the 9th.
