Astros at Tiggers, 5/13/19
« on: May 14, 2019, 06:18:45 pm »
Springer works his way back from 0-2 for walk
Bregman singles up the middle
Brantley pops to 3B
Correa crushes one to CF into the plants, and it’s 3-0 folks.

It's the 14th, by the way. Though the way things are going, we might be best served doing like HH and groundhogging Mother's Day.

Loved the centerfielder running back hoping to play a carom,  then just standing there.

He was 4th in ROY voting 2016 after hitting .300 with 17 HRs. The Cards decided they wanted DeJong more and traded him to Toronto after the 2017 season for J.B.Woodman. Woodman is out of baseball. Toronto got Trent Thorton from the Astros, Thorton is 0-4.

Misplayed fly ball falls between Reddick and Springer and ruled a triple. Sac fly scores him and costs Miley an earned run.

Monster first half his rookie year and was an All Star, then some injury in the 2nd half limited him to 30 something games.

I knew he had some pop but I didn't expect this.  This Luhnow guy seems to be pretty smart.

There is no way that's a base hit.  Not in this league, not in Little League.  It's not even close.  Not in the universe of a base hit.  They have to change it.

Correa triples to the RF corner. He is just killing the ball to the opposite field.

White, to no avail, has trimmed his beard. It isn't his beard that needs trimming.

BTW, One of Niko Goodrum's nicknames is "Captain Morgan," which is kind of ironic.

Because he takes drunken routes to balls.

I don't think White's problem is his weight. I think he had just overachieved previously. We are seeing who he is.

There's more than one?
Yep, I think the other only pitched a handful of games 1 year. eta:  looked it up, 3 games for the Pirates in 2000

McHugh threw some nice pitches there.

A good line Blummer had Sunday about Valdez always pitching with traffic on the bases was, "He should pitch with an  orange vest on."

Just an FYI...today is May 14th.  The guy who started last night's game thread is apparently a dumbass.

A GZ on a streak respects thee streak. I think we have to keep backdating these.

There is no way that's a base hit.  Not in this league, not in Little League.  It's not even close.  Not in the universe of a base hit.  They have to change it.

That “earned run” ended Miley’s streak of 3earned runs or less allowed at 24 games.
