Houston @ Baltimore 7/22 ???
« on: July 22, 2017, 06:27:34 pm »
Any word on how long a delay we're looking at? The info at NOAA makes it look like there might be issues for a while.
I remember all the good times me 'n Miller enjoyed
Up and down the M1 in some luminous yo-yo toy
But the future has to change - and to change I've got to destroy
Oh look out Lennon here I come - land ahoy-hoy-hoy

MLB App sent me the "about to start" alert seconds ago, which is generally about 15 min before first pitch.

Under way!
The rules of distinction were thrown out with the baseball cap.  It does not lend itself to protocol.  It is found today on youth in homes, classrooms, even in fine restaurants.  Regardless of its other consequences, this is a breach against civility.  A civilized man should avoid this mania.

B1:

Jones pops out F4
Machado...full count...walks
Schoop...0-2...1-2...strikes out swinging
Davis lines to CF...Marisnick sort of runs in a circle, moving back, then has to come in and it eats him up, bouncing off his glove.  Machado to 3B.  Scored a single, but it's catch he makes 99% of the time
Trumbo strikes out swinging

No score

T2:

Gattis singles to CF on a broken bat looper
Beltran...full count...strikes out swinging, Gattis on the move, thrown out 2-6 jogging to 2B, sliding three feet short of the bag
Bregman hit by pitch
Moran singles to CF, Bregman to 3B
Marisnick flies out F8

Astros get two hits and a HBP, but with the double play can't punch a run across.  No score

Yeah, big swing, off the end of the bat.  Still, it's a play Jake normally makes.

I'm still trying to figure out how, after you had the first one, you decided it would be a great idea to have seven more. The only thing I thought might be a great idea after one was getting my nuts cut off.

I've seen quite a few hard hit balls tonight. Almost all of them right at someone.

Machado flair single to RF on the first pitch

Davis...full count...strikes out looking

But the wheels fall off for McHugh...4-1 O's

He made two bad pitches all night, and they cost him four runs.  The leadoff walk to the 7 hitter which turned the lineup over didn't help though.

Pretty much right when the rain started, though I imagine he was tiring too.  I think 76 pitches was the most he threw in rehab.

When Gurriel's ball came off the bat I had no idea he hit it that hard.  Kept looking down the line in the corner then looked at the fielder then looked up.  He smoked that.

He basically just threw his hands at it. Great swing.

Reddick...3-0...3-1...rulebook double to LCF
Gurriel...0-2...1-2...doubles off the top of the RF wall, Reddick scores...home run review...hard to tell...overturned!...Home Run!

That chases Tillman, O'Day in

Gattis singles to LF on the first pitch
Beltran singles to LF on the first pitch, Gattis to 2B
Bregman...quickly 0-2...1-2...2-2...full count...strikes out looking
Moran...fouls the first pitch off his face...bleeding profusely...gonna have to come out...Marwin will come in as a pinch hitter...battling...homers to RF!  Gattis scores, Beltran scores
Marisnick...0-2...1-2...2-2...strikes out swinging

But the Astros vaunt a little...lead 6-4

Gattis with an RBI single...7-4...bases still juiced
The rules of distinction were thrown out with the baseball cap.  It does not lend itself to protocol.  It is found today on youth in homes, classrooms, even in fine restaurants.  Regardless of its other consequences, this is a breach against civility.  A civilized man should avoid this mania.

I'd love to see Musgrove do well here. Who knows what his role could be this season...

This is where Musgrove needs to be: one or two innings at a time in relief.
I remember all the good times me 'n Miller enjoyed
Up and down the M1 in some luminous yo-yo toy
But the future has to change - and to change I've got to destroy
Oh look out Lennon here I come - land ahoy-hoy-hoy

Now THAT was good win...after being down, immediately with a big inning to retake the lead...tack on a few runs late, and OUTSTANDING work by the pen.

Pound the ol' Budweiser!

After last night's clusterfuck, the pen went 4.1 innings, 0 runs on 0 hits and only one BB

Any news on Moran?

Julia tweeted he was still being evaluated.  Will probably know tomorrow.

I drank some Opus One last night, and I'm sipping on some Alexander Valley Vineyards Cab tonight. The price point is much further apart than the enjoyment.

I am a big fan of most any Alexander Valley wine. Now that I think about it I have a story that involves an Alexander Valley red, a lunatic and a white dress shirt that I'll perhaps relate at some point in the future. Anyway, yeah, big fan.

Martes appears to be saying "hey, I'm that impact reliever you're looking for".

Luhnow hinted at this on a Sunday pre-game interview a week or two ago. They kinda expected him to provide something different from the pen with his electric stuff down the stretch. I don't know that means they aren't still looking though.

If Martes and Musgrove can become reliable relief men, then the future looks a little brighter.  They certainly looked the part last night, especially Martes.  He saved the day.

I have trouble picturing Musgrove as an effective bullpen arm.
