That's really frustrating. Man on 3rd, one out, you really ought to be able to get him home.
-
Conger singles into RF. 0 outs.

It was man on 3rd, NO outs with Grossman still at bat. And yes, strikeouts do matter.
-
I'm starting to think this Peacock fellow is a keeper.

Yeah whatever he worked on in AAA seems to be working.
-
They need to bust this thing open here.
-
Castro walks with the bases loaded. Hell of an AB there Jason! 2-0 Astros. Angels making a pitching change. 1 out.
-
I think was 10 pitches on that at-bat.
-
Now Carter gets another chance to avoid striking out. Park one, CC.
-
Damn that Trout! <shakes fist>
-
Sac Fly from Carter. Grossman scores. 3-0 Astros.
-
Domingo flies out to RF. 3 outs.
-
Damn that Trout! <shakes fist>
I was happy with what happened, it was way better than my GIDP premonition.
-
Sac Fly from Carter. Grossman scores. 3-0 Astros.
That was a nice swing by Carter. Roped a slightly looping liner into LF, nice and somewhat risky play by Trout to dive for that, going towards the line, although he clearly had a play.
At least they tacked on that one.
-
Fuckin hell, Wallace, you gotta knock that ball down. Nice try by Altuve, bad result.
-
RBI 3-1 for Conger scores Aybar from 3rd, 3-1 Astros. Run will be unearned unless Peacock allows another hit this inning.
-
Way past time to Ankielize Wallace. At bat, in the field and on the base paths he is the team millstone.

I'm not a big believer in Wallace at this point either, but don't you think that's a bit hyperbolic? His is also a totally different circumstance from Ankiel's.
-
Whew. Trout walks on a full count with 2 outs, bringing up Hamilton, who I thought got more of the ball than he did; relatively easy catch for Hoes ends the inning.
By the way, I just realized that on mlb.tv, you can select to do KMBE as the audio overlay on the TV broadcast. It's synched up perfectly. So, sorry Blummer, I like you, but Ashby sucks, and Ford and Sparks are really good. They win.
-
Keep talking bad about him. Wallace with a leadoff double.
-
Carter says "U FOO" and drives in a run. 4-1 Astros.
-
Attaboy CC! Way to get that slider.
-
Matty D doesn't like Jepsen so he grounds a hard hit ball off him for a base hit. 2 on. 2 out.

Maybe Dominguez needs to not like more people.

That error looks like it might end up hurting.

Yep.

Yep. Tough luck for Peacock, leaves with 2 runs allowed on the night, both unearned. Though that could change if Zeid can't get out of this jam.

Zeid is already up in the zone.
-
Double play! Nice pitching Zeid!
-
Hollllllllddd!!! Holllllldd!
-

That was excellent fielding by Matty D, with the bat coming at him too.
-
So I guess Fields is the closer now?
-
Chris Carter says let's end this fucker and hits a 3 run bomb.
-
Matty D goes back to back! 8-2 Astros.
-
Hammer time.
-
Barnes K's and the Hoes hits a triple off the CF wall. Villar ends the inning with a K though. Bottom of the 9th 8-2 Astros.

The return of Astrolina! Excellent! I was quite worried about her.
