GREAT FUCKING WIN!

Indeed! And a series win to boot! Over the stRangers no less, who feasted on us last season. Fuck them. Those series wins have been scarcer than hen's teeth.

Exactly right. Glad to see the guys have some fun. Sipp was a heck of a pickup.

Sipp was filthy against their lefties. Hopefully, that will continue.

The defense did things right all evening, the base-running was fine, Castro caught a good game, and Feldman struggled but didn't collapse.

Tuesday night wasn't bad either.

If you were watching Singleton in the field, you musta had a helluva view...all the way to Okie City.

Singleton, Springer, all these players not named Altuve look alike to me. Altuve looks short.
