Astros send 12 men to the plate and score 8 runs in the first, beat the living shit out of King Felix.

That's coming out guns blazing.

I am ok with the shift in certain situations, but runners on 1st and 2nd and less than two outs isn't one of them.

Kris: so he's like the Aaron Franklin of baseball.
Me: Yes. So he just hit his second home run.
Kris: This game?
Me: No, but he's only been up a week.
Kris:  So what was he doing the first inning?

 Just got home from work. Turned on TV to see HOU was up by 9 against SEA. Checked Gameday to see who'd done what, and saw that HOU had put up 8 on "F. Hernandez" in 1/3rd of an inning. My first thought was "I didn't know SEA had two pitchers named "F. Hernandez"...
