Astros smacking the ball pretty good...walk, double, double, groundout, and single make it 3-0. Even the outs were blistered. Except for Bregman who hit a weak ground ball, but it plated a run.
-
I’m a little disappointed that Alvarez didn’t go ahead and homer. What’s he holding back for?
-
Sanchez looks pretty good to me.

His single nearly took Gonzales’s head off. He looked like Charlie Brown getting his clothes knocked off by a line drive.

I'm afraid he might really hurt a pitcher if he ever hits one.
-
The 'before' picture for that 1st inning is Servais bemoaning the fact Altuve wasn't rung up on that check swing (he definitely had a point).
The 'after' shot is the 3 next to the home team on the scoreboard.
-
Shaner!
-
Sounds like Shane could work with Greinke on socialization skills.
-
A Collin McHugh Dodging Bobblehead could be worth having.

I don’t ever remember Joe Morgan saying nice things about the Astros.

Tough seeing Jim Wynn and his health limitations, one of the most underrated

Joe Morgan is a complete dick.

He likes Altuve. That cuts down the complete by .001. Maybe .0001.

He resents Altuve. His compliments are backhanded. Joe Morgan is all about Joe Morgan. He’s a hall of fame douchebag.
-

Maybe so. He was a pretty good ball player though. It was his broadcast career that brought out the dick side.

I have no trouble believing he was a dick as a player too.
-
And while I’m piling on...I’m still pissed about seeing Nolan Ryan on all these things. As far as I’m concerned, he abdicated his Astro credentials.
-
Altuve!!!
Though I’m sure Morgan will poo poo it.
-
ALTUVE! Over Frito pies on Friday, a very wise woman told me that when Altuve is happy this whole team is happy.
-
Wow! That was good hitting.
-
Alvarez does not like to run, does he.
-

Did he have a stroke?
-
Yuli seems to have cooled off some. He would have crushed a few of those last week.

I still can't believe what we got for Derrick Fisher.

Who misplayed a ball today and had it hit him in the face.

Stupid fans have started the wave. They never learn.

it really bugs me they way they pronounce Sanchez. (https://pronouncenames.com/pronounce/sanchez)

What's with the lights in the stands?

So far, that woman is right.

But they do a great job with Perez.

No seriously, WTF? Do I need to do this at home too?

Usually is.

I think Kalas almost said it.

YOU’RE NOT!?!

Now you tell me. If'n I try the wave by myself does that count for or against?
-

Do we know how he pronounces it? He's from Cali and was raised by gringos (mom and stepdad) so it may have been anglicized.
-
"Hey kid, how would you like to pitch a no-hitter?" "Nope. I'm good."
-

The wave never counts.

Dang. I guess it does.

A wise woman said don't do it.

Machete may want to check out this Peleton thing.

Alvarez does not like to run, does he.
Anything else to bitch about tonight?
-
Sanchez was looking at his right hand some in the 6th. Hope the blisters are not reappearing.
-

I wonder how TK would feel about someone continuing to pronounce his name “ka-LASS”
-

At least Nolan is there to explain to him the benefits of pickle brine.

I had to stop to charge it; hence the problem. She is wise, no doubt.

That's what I thought too, but he was talking to JV in the dugout and showing him his left hand, so I dunno.

I was thinking that was like the most open invitation ever, but then I figured Jim was only talking about the Astros.

There’s one. Alvarez hasn’t hit a home run all night.

Straighten that out a little, Yordan.

Yeah, there is nothing like an awesome vacation to make you grumpy.
-

Belize.

To be clear, it wasn’t the vacation so much as the fact that it ended and it’s back to the old salt mine on Monday.

On the mound it was the fingers on his right hand.

Jim Wynn is the Name That Astro,
I remember meeting him at an Astros caravan at UT in the 80s. I was in awe.
-
You weren’t at San Pedro, where were you?
Placencia Village. Then on an island.

I can’t watch the game. Who is warming up for the 9th?

I doubt it will happen, but Tal Smith should get serious consideration for the Astros Hall of Fame.
-

Thanks. Internet on Cape Cod is horrible. First world vacation problems...
-
Where you been?
Lurking about the place sometimes but working a lot in the last few months. I have a tv out in the garage now, so I watch most of the games out there. With no quick access to a pc it is a bit hard to contribute to the discussions, but I still get lot of laughs from reading the posts after the games.

Ironically, it was way better than I expected in Placencia, Belize. They just got a paved road last year, but the internet works pretty good.
-

The app is 'cnadle'. It's quirky but gets the job done.

Bregman has smacked a few balls hard lately.

I've been watching on my phone at a Mexican baby shower for one of wife's friends... the last no-no we were out for her birthday. At least I got to watch part of this one and my phone didn't die before the last out. I'm at 6% but it was worth it!

Did you use the light?
-
On post game radio interview they asked Sanchez about his finger. He said no blister and everything is fine. He says he gets them so much that he is constantly checking them to make sure they are ok.
What a night! Great debut for he and Biagini and a great job by Harris, Devo and the bats. All on Hall of Fame night!

I can only guess what this refers to but I was only watching the top half of each inning and still pretend to pay attention to the dumb games they are playing and had the sound off completely.

So let s get this straight, the last two times you were out with this chick, the Astros tossed a no-hitter?
Secondly...a fucking baby shower? For someone else’s kid?

Baseball fan gets alert:
Astros throw a no hitter!
Baseball fan:
Wonder if it was JV, Cole or Greinke
Baseball fan checks phone:
WTF! It was the new 5th fucking starter!! Cancel the season.

Hello, Sanchez and Biagini!
Wow!

Happy wife, happy life or some shit like that. Believe me, I'm not happy to be here watching a no-no, on my phone, with no sound, and nearly zero english being spoken around me. But I don't want her to leave me, she can make some pretty fucking mean salsa

Biagini: I guess they can trade me now, they got what they wanted out of me. I knew it was a no hitter early, but forgot. I didn’t remember again until after I’d come out of the game.
-
To be honest, I forgot about the no-hitter when Sanchez left. Wow.
-
I had the sound off.

How pissed are the Blue Jays business management team right now? Probably wondering where they get their own Strom.

Every team in baseball wishes they had a pitching coach like Strom along with an analytics department like the Astros. The combination is lethal.

Hope we play them more this season! This is not a very good Mariners team.
ETA: but they are still a bunch of pond-scum sucking hammock-swinging salt-debased MarONRs, Our Natural Rivals. Fuck ‘em.

I know he doesn’t have a ton to work with, but I’m shocked Servais still has a job.

The Astros play them seven more times, counting tomorrow’s game.

I hope the Astros have someone learning from Strom to take over when he leaves. They've got to. If I can think of it, they've been doing it for years.
