PB by Gattis costs a run. Can't blame Fiers for that inning.

Strike zone is all over the place so far today.

Aoki was just about to the fence tracking the ball that hit the roof. I wonder if it had enough to get in to the Crawford Boxes had the roof not gotten in the way.

Through three innings, the Astros look 100 percent uninterested in hitting today. Taking hittable pitches and flailing at garbage.

He's averaging one every other inning.  He's actually ahead of his pace for this game.  But you know more are coming.

The scrub just surpassed his career strikeout high in the fifth inning.

We've seen Baur before. His ERA would be like 9 w/o facing Houston this season.

He's never gotten through the 6th inning in his career before either.  Unless the Astros unleash on him, he's making all sorts of career history today.

A little of both.  As Altuve just legs a double into a single.  The Astros' first hit.

Clevinger's finish on his delivery is terribly annoying. It wouldn't surprise me if it was accompanied by a Monica Seles-esque grunt.

Do you really think it matters?  The Astros have one hit and no runs in the last 10 innings.

It helps when hitters ignore the cookies right down the middle.  And he gets 47 inches off the plate.

You know,  swinging the fucking bats would help score some runs.  Or is that too much to ask?

I don't think you can hit a ball harder than Reddick just did.

Of everyone in the stadium Springer should have had the best read on that liner. Instead he's out there jerking back and forth like Hunter Pence having a palsied fit.

This team can't hit. I guess Fiers is gonna have to pitch a shut-out to get a win.

A shutout would not have gotten him a win today either.

Good news: Cabrera and Martinez are back for Detroit, and they're lighting up the Rangers. Bad news: they're coming to Houston next.
