Stanton smokes one (116 MPH) but right at Dubon for the L6
Donaldson flies to RF
Torres with, as HH would say, a shiftfuck squibbler through the right side
Trevino with a simple 6-3
Mid 4, Astros 2-0
Garcia 78 pitches, looks like a “five and dive” night
What do you think about Appleton Estate 12 rum?
Haven’t opened it yet but I’m about to.
That’s about the long and short of it.
Severino tried to be a dumbass too.
Bot 4:
Yuli bounces 5-3
Matijevic hits Severino with the bouncer, hustling, throw barely beats him on that lax throw by Severino
Dubon bounces 4-3
Quick bottom half. End 4, Astros 2-0.
Don’t bring it up unless you have enough to share with the class.
I always think of Gregg Easterbrook and his old Tuesday Morning Quarterback column. It was a lot of fun to read before it was revealed he hates jews or whatever it was, but one of the things I remember best was his constant mockery of the overuse of the blitz.
So lately whenever an Astros opponent hits a lazy grounder directly to an infielder except said infielder is nowhere to be found, preferring to defend some other part of the field, I find myself shouting, IT’S A SHIFT!
Nice play by Bregman.
I’d teleport it around if I could.
I’m also looking at a basket of peaches, I’ve done rum and lots of other fruits but I don’t think I’ve done it with peaches. An electric milkshake may be in my future.
Ponche!
I like it. It’s a typical Jamaican rum…strong, funky. It’s good in cocktails that require that strong flavor, especially if you mix it with lime juice or something acidic. Not one of my sipping rums, but makes one half of a great mai tai.
It would probably go well in a milkshake, and with peaches. It’s made from molasses and has that vanilla and banana…y flavor that would likely pair well.
Ponche otra vez!
Bregman with a nice snag down the line, Kiner-Falefa out 5-3
Gallo strikes out (shocking) looking at a change
Announcers debate how to get Jake back into the rotation, I don’t know, maybe the same 6-man rotation as when he went out
LeMahieu strikes out swinging
Mid 5, 2-0 Astros.
Garcia with an efficient inning, will probably pitch the 6th
Great job by Garcia these last couple innings after we scored
Now I’ve got to make myself a cocktail
Sold. Will report the results later.
Troy bought some Mocambo 20yr at Costco that he likes a lot
Meyers hits on hard but not hard enough, F8
Maldonado with a routine fly to LF
Altuve with a simple 6-3
Not making Severino work at all. End 5, 2-0 Astros.
Not exactly stressing Severino the last 2 innings.
