How so?  It was a down the middle fastball that Altuve jumped all over.

That was a fastball down the middle that was 1) swung on and  2) barreled up by 3) an Astros hitter.

I think that last part may have led to your observation.

I was just about to say that these walks are going to burn Framber, then he induces an inning- ending dp.

He still needs to stop with the free passes.

Alex has him now...

Bregman seems to be the only guy flummoxed by Zimmerman.  Hasn't had a good swing yet.

Bregman hit by pitch
Gurriel hit by pitch, Bregman to 2B
Marwin...trying to bunt, but whiffs to make it 1-2..lines out hard to LF
Passed ball...Bregman to 3B, Gurriel to 2B
Correa intentionally walked to load the bases

Coleman out, Stumpf in

Reddick pops out to shallow RF, runners hold

Stumpf out, Alcantara in

White...full count...grounds to 3B...Candelario kicks it...runs it down and throws to 1B.  White ruled safe at 1B, but being challenged and he was out by a step and a half, wasn't really close

What you don't know is that it is only people who drink and smoke that ever get sick.  People who don't drink and smoke live forever in perfect health.  That's why drinkers and smokers get taxed so much to pay for the health system.
