GET THE BALL CLOSE TO THE FUCKING STRIKE ZONE YOU FUCKING YAHOO
These guys need to refine their idea of a “waste pitch”.
T2:
Stanton…0-2…strikes out swinging
Donaldson taps one back towards the mound, just out of Garcia’s reach…the old 61-ft infield single
Hicks…3-2…foul…walks, Donaldson to 2B
Kiner-Falefa…3-2…grounds into 6-4 FC, Hicks out at 2B, Donaldson to 3B
Locastro…0-2…1-2 in the dirt…2-2 in the dirt, as IKF moves to 2B on a wild pitch…grounds out 5-3
Garcia had to work for it, but Astros lead 2-0
Or maybe just the amount. Bouncing 3 curveballs to go from 0-2 to 3-2 is, quite frankly, fucking dumb.
Ok. Gotta make supper. Someone do some PBP.
Oh how I love having Yordan back in the lineup!
I put the meatballs in the oven and it’s 5-0
Alvarez two run double to the LCF wall; Bregman rbi single to shallow center
Congratulations…you get PBP
Meatballs? Meatloaf? What is your “recipe”?
Meatballs. Mrs Hawk’s Italian recipe…pork and beef, onions, spices…I don’t ask. They’re delicious.
It’s nice having Bregman back in the lineup too.
They are going to need all those runs and more given Garcia’s start and their bullpen options.
Garcia has not been particularly efficient.
Nibbling with a 5-run lead.
That’s what happens when you fucking nibble.
5-2
Gonna need 3 or four innings from Martinez.
Garcia is infuriating at times.
Top 3 (Garcia pitching)
Higashioka: Strikes out looking
Judge: Walks on 3-2 count
Torres: Two-run homer
Carpenter: Strikes out looking
Stanton: Grounds out to Altuve shifted up the middle, inning over
5-2 Astros
Every pitcher whose name doesn’t start with a V is infuriating at times. And one of them can put fury to the test.
