Harrell in trouble early in this game.

Definitely bad luck.

Seems the rest of the team just doesn't give a shit when it comes to defense. I feel like the Astros are going to want a ten-rule rule.
ugh, this team is bad.
-
I really really hate playing the Rangers. Especially in Arlington.
-
I rather think they think they just can't beat the Rangers. I really want the Astros to help the A's win the division.

Even when the Rangers were shitty, the Astros had trouble with them in interleague play.
-
Yeah, Harrell deserved a better fate that inning.
I haven't seen him in awhile. Even when he has his good sinker and can throw a fair amount of strikes, he could sure use a go to secondary pitch.
Real nice work by Castro and Carter.
-
Is it just me or does it seem like they Astros play the Rangers all the f-in time?
-
Well, Dominguez's nickname is domingo.
which just makes me think, the dingo ate my baby.
-
Carter keeps my faith alive yet again.

That's always in the back of my mind with him.

What's this shit on tv? I had planned to watch reruns of Top Gear.

you may still want to watch the reruns.

Some people call it baseball.

Villar trying to bunt on garza, and Villar looked terrified.
-
Nice play by the Dutchman.
-
How does Matt Garza feel about his team bunting for hits?
-
It's a bad sign when Brownie and Ashby are already dreaming on George Springer again in only the 3rd inning.
-
Lucas Harrell still sucks.
-
Bo Porter MUST lead the league in mound trips this year.

And in delay tactics immediately preceding his mound trips.

Harrell can't even pitch three innings? I'm done.

No doubt. Wily veteran when it comes to that.
-
WTF? What an amazing amount of stupid errors in one game.
-
Holy fuck.
-
Leblanc? Never heard of him.
-
Top Gear. Reruns. Lookin' good.
-
the rangers have won 30 of the last 37 games between them and the Astros. omg.
-
I'm gonna be eating soon, so I'm gonna have to turn this off. So I can keep my dinner down.
Top Gear. Reruns. Lookin' good.
Breaking Bad. Netflix. Lookin' real good.

I have to recap this shit.
and shit it is.

That's because we have a balanced budget and low taxes.
-
10 run lead and only 1 out in the 3rd. leave this leblanc kid in and let him suffer.
but at least bases aren't loaded right now.
-
My only regret in turning this off is that I love seeing position players pitch, and this game is certainly headed that way. Elmore? Barnes?
-
villar is having an incredibly horrid night.
I hope they get all this crap out of their system tonight.

I think leblanc is going to be used until his arm falls off.
11 runs in one inning.
-
3rd inning is finally over. 3 innings completed in 1.5 hours. at this rate, I can't stay up this late.
-

No one injured to my knowledge, corporan did get hit but I think it is just because. Blakely starting for the rangers tomorrow.

-
I said early in the night, before the third innng it felt like a ten run rule kind of night. I wad right.
Of course, the Astros scored their second run of the game.
-
15-2 now, fortheloveofChrist.

The good news is everyone can watch it.
-
Rally 2 more score.

-
corporan was removed from the game precautionary - due to hit on the mask.

Scoreless 1-2-3 8th inning

Final 16-5 rangers.
Elmore player of the game.
-
Elmore pitching.
My prophecy came true, eh?
-
That's pretty impressive. Catches four innings and then throws a scoreless one.
I don't get the DH rule. From previous games, I had assumed that if you were the DH, you couldn't substitute later as a defender. This assumption came from listening to games when Castro and/or Corporan was DH'ing and the announcers were concerned about the catcher getting hurt. When they used Elmore to replace Corporan, I again assumed my first assumption was correct, because otherwise, why wouldn't Castro have taken over at catcher after Corporan? Then, Elmore went into pitch, and I wondered who caught, and saw it was Castro. I also see that once Castro moved to catcher, no one filled the DH role. I guess you lose the DH once the original DH moves to a defensive position.
Fucking American League rules.

Nice call.
