And thus Dozier begins his annual second half blossoming. I saw that one coming.

Dozier homers to LF
Granite grounds out 6-3 on a VERY close play at 1B
Sano...full count...strikes out swinging at a pitch in the dirt
Kepler...full count...walks
Grossman...3-1...walks
Vargas strikes out looking

Twins lead 1-0

Berrios has thrown 8 pitches, none of them close to being a strike, and has two easy outs

HudsonHawk · « **Reply #7 on:** July 14, 2017, 07:34:53 pm »

Berrios threw 13 straight balls...9 of them after a leadoff-4-pitch walks...three outs. Ugh.

HudsonHawk · « **Reply #8 on:** July 14, 2017, 07:35:07 pm »

B1:

Springer walks on four pitches, none of them within 3 feet of the plate
Altuve flies out F9 on the first pitch he can reach
Reddick pops out F6 on a pitch at his ankles
Correa pops out F3

1-0 Twins

Top 3:

Somebody strikes out.
Zach Granite gets his first ML hit on a bloop that just eludes Altuve, much to his disgust. Granite winds up on second.
Sano grounds out 6-3, Granite stays at second.
Kepler strikes out.

Morton at 59 pitches after 3. Still getting to 95 mph on his fastball.

Astros lead 8-1 going to the bottom of the 3rd.

Bottom of the 3rd:

Marwin leads off with a homer to CF on a 2-0 pitch. Estimated at 421 feet.
Bregman works a full count, then pops up to 3B.
Springer walks on a 3-1 count. All of a sudden the Twins are having to throw a lot of pitches.
Altuve singles to left on a 2-2 pitch. Springer to 2nd.
Reddick somehow singles to RF (low outside pitch that he pulls under the 2nd baseman), Spring scores, Altuve to 2nd.
Correa works the count full, then watches a third strike for the second out.
McCann flies out to shallow CF to end the inning.

Astros lead 10-1 after 3 innings.

Top of 4th:

Grossman walks.

Polanco works the count full and then walks. Grossman to 2nd.
Castro strikes out on a particularly wicked slider on the outside.
I-missed-his-name walks to load the bases.
Dozier doubles to the LF bullpen area, clearing the bases. Terrible pitch by Morton, right in the sweet spot for Dozier.
#2 guy pops up to Bregman to end the inning.

Astros lead 10-4 after 4. Morton at 90+ pitches after 4, with 5 walks. Probably tne end of the night for him.

For the record, I don't like the fact that the new inset never shows the batter's name.

Beltran fouls off a bunch of pitches, singles up the middle on the 12th pitch of the AB. We're going to see every Twins reliever tonight.
Gurriel gets drilled in the ass on the first pitch. That seems a bit suspicious.
Marwin singles up the middle, bases are loaded with no outs.

Grossman strikes out on a checked swing.
Vargas hits a simple ground ball to Gurriel who drops the fucking ball. So the inning should have already been over, but instead the bases are loaded with one out.
Polanco with a sac fly to CF, runners hold at 1st and 2nd.
Castro grounds out to Yuli to end the inning.

Reddick grounds out 4-3, or so they say; it was pretty close. Altuve moves to 3rd.
Correa IBB'ed. Runners at 1st and 3rd.
McCann watches strike three after fouling off some tough pitches.
Beltran grounds out 6-3. Another squandered opportunity.

Top of the 6th:

End of the night for Morton. Feliz in for the 6th.

Buxton with a lead-off double on a 3-2 pitch.
Dozier pops up to Correa, thank heaven.
Granite pops up to Correa. Feliz seems to have a hard time throwing two strikes in a row.
Sano misses a home run to LF by about 4 feet, and then winds up walking. Buxton remains at 2nd. Game is now 2 hours and 50 minutes old.
Kepler walks on 5 pitches, because he's such a dangerous hitter. Feliz is a walking ulcer inducer.

Hinch says "fuck this, I'm bringing in a real pitcher." Devo coming in, Feliz goes to the bench to think about his approach.

Grossman flies out to Reddick in RF, although not without some drama. This umpire is hard to understand.

Astros lead 10-5 in the middle of the 6th.

Bottom of the 7th:

Hildenberger still in to pitch. Buxton is apparently out of the game, but I'm not sure what the defensive changes are.

Springer grounds into the shift 4-3.
Altuve flies out to shallow CF. He's probably out of ABs to get that 3rd hit.
Reddick singles to RF.
Correa grounds out 4-3. Just doing his part to speed up the pace of the game.

Astros lead 10-5 after 7 innings.
