Ancient Chinese secret.

The game is free on MLB.TV tonight.
-
who stole the Astros and put these hitters in their place?
-
He went?!? My ass!!!
-
whoo hoo! An RBI! Two of 'em!
-
Holy moly.
-
Another one! 3-0 good guys
-
Inconceivable!
-
Pod People 3 Mariners 0
-
Wallace??? How long do they stick with him?
-
Wallace is seriously scuffling... That was a pathetic at-bat
-
Whoa, hey! What are these guys doing on the basepaths and where's the usual circle in scorebox?
-
Wallace??? How long do they stick with him?
How long does it take the fork to go in?
-
Wallace for Harang?
-
4-0!
-
And the Astros first Stolen Base of the year goes to?!? You guessed it, JD Martinez...
-
Matt, Matt, Matt... don't hit the pitcher, he's doing wonders for our hitters!
4-0 Astros.
-
This inning is unbelievable.
-
I'm reminded of that Kenny Rogers song -- Coward of the County..
-
They have loosed the Gerbils of War.
-
'TUVE 2-out 2RBI 2B to go 2-2 in T1!!!
ETA: Mariners go to the pen down 6-0 with 2 outs in the top of the 1st inning. Maxwell coming up
-
Pessimists view: But two of the 3 outs have been strike outs!
-
Nonetheless, it's 6-0 Astros! Amazing!
-
Go Bedard!
-
Its a Christmas miracle!
-
Nonetheless, it's 6-0 Astros! Amazing!
Thanks. I was trying to figure out how it was 6-1 in the top of the 1st.
-
Common denominator: Bedard.
-
flashing the leather this inning! Nice work on the corners!
-
The hitters are going to get tired at this rate... 3 up, 3 down in the bottom of the 1st. 6-0 Astros.
-

Ya know, I'm wondering how I meant to type that myself...

Wear 'em out. I hate those scurvy weevil suckers.
-
Carter!
-
What was that? A Home Run?!? From Carter?
-
Anybody know when the last time the Astors chased a starting pitcher in the first inning?
-
Pena!
-
I'm convinced this game is being computer generated in a studio in Taiwan...
-
This is amazing.
-
Martinez!
-
I'm gobsmacked! JD Martinez!
-
Hope they don't use all opf their bullets up like they did in the first game.
-
What was that? A Home Run?!? From Carter? JD Martinez
FIFY (in light of recent events...).
-
Wallace keeps it real by striking out.
-
I'm convinced this game is being computer generated in a studio in Taiwan...
It's Astro porn.
-
What the hell's going on around here?
-
Mid 2nd, 9-0 Astros.
-
Gotta hand it to Walrus, he's maintaining consistency tonight while the others are pretending to be someone else.

How did Bedard get Morse? My MLB.tv froze up..

Grounder to Marwin.

Grounder to Marwin.
Thanks..
-
Meanwhile, Oakland gets out of a bases loaded, no out jam by striking out Josh Hamilton and getting a 5-4-3 DP from whomever follows him. And then Crisp hits yet another HR in the top of the next inning.
-
End of the 2nd, 9-0 Astros.
-
End of the 2nd, 9-0 Astros.
Remarkabobble.
-
WTF
-
Check that.. 10-0 on Marwin's bomb to right.. deep in the seats
-
Wow. Just wow.
-
I'm fucking gobsmacked.
-
It's the end of the world as we know it
-
It's the end of the world as we know it
May it be so...
-
11-0 on an rbi single by Carter.
-
Pitching visit to the mound. Well duh.
-
It's the end of the world as we know it
But I feel fine...
And I could get used to this!!!

No way this is Houston 2013

It just took a little time for the significance of OSF's inspirational Opening Day trip to sink in.

I try, man. I. Try.

Bedard is just mowing them down...
-
Whine of the day: "It's only the third inning and way past my bedtime!"
-
But...how many more runs can these guys possibly score?
-
Whine of the day: "It's only the third inning and way past my bedtime!"
It is also a fact.
-
End of the 3rd. 11-0 Astros.
-
And... how many more times can Bedard face this order successfully?
-
Bedard is just mowing them down...
yep. 9 up, 9 down.

It is also a fact.
Welcome to the AL West.

Huh?!? It's not even 8:30 yet...

But for the exitement of another Wallace at bat... I'm in.

<salt thrown over shoulder> What ever do you mean?</salt>
-
My family almost moved to Seattle when I was 2. There is an alternate timeline version of me who found something else to do 2 innings ago and is smug about attending Mudhoney concerts.
-
THAT!
-
Maybe his last game as a major leaguer?

Harang bait.
-
Really, though, sad to see.
-
are they waiting for a first called strike?
-
awesome.
-
Jose Altuve.. Professional Hitter. 13-0 Astros on a bullet to left field.
Forgot Marwin was on first.
-
That did not happen....
-
Mid 4, 13-0 Astros on the strength of 4 (!) home runs so far.
-
In the defense of Wallace, he struck out facing 3 different pitchers. Prbably just never got comfortable.
-
Arrrr. These sailors are ours.
-
Mid 4, 13-0 Astros on the strength of 4 (!) home runs so far.
Not just HRs, HRs from Marwin and The Altuve.

397' blast (73.29 Atluves to be more precise)
-
Bedard finally gives up a hit.
-
No-no gone.. okay, now to make this a quick game... please!
-
Bedard finally gives up a hit.
And first walk..
-
Maybe his last game as a major leaguer?
Out of the shadows stepped a trembling Eddie Wade, carrying his father's shotgun.
"He's my Wallace. I'll do it", he said through watery eyes.
-
Bedard works around a hit and two walks to keep the Mariners off the board. 13-0 Astros after 4.
-
It's not even the fifth inning. The AL games take fucking forever.
-
Angels losing 4-2 to the A's. Bases loaded, one out and Josh Hamilton at the plate. This is what they paid the big bucks for. And Hamilton grounds out to the pitcher for a force out to essentially kill the rally. Trumbo makes the next out and the Angels get nothing out of that inning.
-

because of all that Astros scoring and shit.
-

Killed his pitch count though. 66 pitches in four innings is not a good thing. He had a nice clip going before that inning.
-

Scary thought: With the Astros bullpen, maybe the Mariners can do the same in several innings? Welcome to the AL!
-
A walk. A walk against the hated Mariners.

Meanwhile, Brandon Laird, who can play both 1st and 3rd, is tearing up the PCL.
-
15 hits. FTM.
-

How much would you expect the 20-30'ish minutes between his trips to the mound have affected his pitching/pitch counts/etc.?!?
-
Looks like plenty of good seats at Safeco tonight..
-
Why in the blue hell are the announcers talking about pulling Bedard after 4 innings?
-
Poor Wallace. The guy is toast.
-
Golden sombrero in the fifth. Wow.
-
Seriously, I'm not mad. But this isn't fair to his teammates, to the fans, or most of all, to Wallace.
He's being embarrassed out there. Send him down.
-
Should be talking about benching Wallace. Hole in the lineup is as big as the hole in his swing.
-
Poor Wallace. The guy is toast.
Luhnow's got to save him from himself.
-
Mid 5, Astros lead 13-0.
-

I guess they're focused on this:

ML debut coming? pic.twitter.com/G9OcXFcCWw

Well that's just about the stupidest thing I've ever seen.
-
Luhnow's got to save him from himself.
I get that in the big picture, it's a tough call. You don't want to send the message to all these youngsters that a bad week can get you shipped out; they'll all grind the bat to sawdust.
But DAMN. You've got to pull the trigger.
-
Clemens in to pitch.. Wonder how Bedard feels about that...
-
Also, nice gesture by Luhnow.
Jeff Luhnow @jluhnow 56m
Someday soon, the Astros will join the Texans and Rockets as post-season teams. It will happen.
Jeff Luhnow @jluhnow 57m
Congrats to the Houston Rockets! Great players, great front office, great city.
-
Luhnow's got to save him from himself.
Its killing me to watch the kid suffer like that...
-
Fick. not leaving Bedard through the 5th at least is crappy.

Wonder if there was something wrong.. that visit to the mound seemed to be asking him if he could get out of the inning.
-

Not as bad as I do... Hell, I picked up Bedard off waivers to start for my fantasy team today (consider the risk in that - Astros lost 6 straight and hadn't done shit at the plate, yet I had faith...) and won't even get a 'W' ... (But will gladly take the no-decision for the 13 runs I've seen from the 'Stros tonight)...
-
Fair ball my ass!!!
-
Fick.
-
Mariners on the board on a sac fly.
-
In for the long haul and just turned on the game. Did Lunhow trade our whole team today for another major league team or have the mighty Stros woke up from a weeks nap?
-
Clemens could use a double-play...
-
13-2 on another sac fly after a dink...
-
If Clemens gets Ibanez he will lower his ERA by 9 runs.

That's bad karma.

After 5, 13-2 Astros. Shaky debut for Paul Clemens, perhaps the adrenaline got him.

That's about all I can handle tonight...

I'm sorry but Charlie Furbush sounds like a really bad porn name from the 70's.

He has a cousin, Richard. But they call him by his nickname.

Nice Mr. Dominguez

Dominguez!!!!

Clemens lowers his ERA 9 more runs that inning. He is on a roll.

Don't be fatuous, Remy.
-
For those of you still up in the AM, give me the over/under of how many games it takes the Astros to score their next 15 runs. I'm gonna say 7. Do you take the over or under?
-
Oliver Perez in the pen for Seattle. Douchebag of the highest order.
-
End of 8. 15-3
-
Clemens out for his 4th inning. Looking at his first win in his MLB debut.
-
Ibanez with a foul out of play. Unfortunately none of those hundreds of empty seats wore their glove. Then Ibanez nails a homer on an 0-2 pitch. Work on your command Clemens.
-
Morse goes back to back. 15-5 Astros.
-
Clemens over 50 pitches. Ambriz in the pen. Ya think it might be time Coach?
-
Clemens gets through the 8th. 15-5
-
Oliver in to pitch. I hope we hammer him.
-
Carter with a missile. Good grief he hit that solid. Stupid Mariner fan throws it back.
-
This is how I feel right now at 12:25 in the AM. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D3j_fdSpkmE)
-
That ball was murdered.
-
Cedeno singles. JD swings in the dirt and nearly hits himself in the head. 1 down
-
Good morning, John. Glad to see you up so early.
-
I'm not sure Oliver would have made the Astros team.
-
6-4-3 dp hit by Dominguez. Going to the bottom of the 9th. 16-5
-
He's got a funky follow through, reminds me of someone, but can't remember off the top of my head.
-
The ditzy blond on the Seattle feed says we are in the running for her worst unis ever. Good to know, now please shut up.
-
He's got a funky follow through, reminds me of someone, but can't remember off the top of my head.
It's prolly that guy the Stem got rid of because he sucked and refused to go to the pen or the minors while he was making 13 million per. But I can't remember his name either.
-
Senor Ambriz comes in throwing strikes
-
Bay hits a homer last AB and struts up to the plate like he is Babe friggin Ruth. Hate to tell you this Bay but you still suck.
-
Senor Ambriz comes in throwing strikes
And then I curse him and he starts missing. Sorry BBGs.
-
Nibbling in a 11 run game at 12:40 in the morning.
-
Altuve extends the game with a boot and then a wild throw. Geez will this game ever end?
-
Carter may want to work on stretching those legs out, he's going to see good time at 1st
-
Finally the game ends. 16-9 good guys.
-
Good night.
-
Thanks for hanging in there, JC3.
-
Wow JCIII, impressive you were able to hang in for the whole game. Hope you can make it to the end of today's.
-
Well, guys, I am on Central time so it was only 1 in the morning here instead of 2. Sigh
-
Maybe the secret tonight was that I had to attend a dinner that lasted forever. I'll be back tonight. However, the question is will Wallace, with his .048 BA

Once again, a golden sombrero by the fifth inning is not something I ever thought I would see.

That's hard to do. It takes some assistance.
