Pretty good catch by that guy with the funky mustache.

-
Sox tie it up on back to back 2-out doubles from the 8 and 9 hitters.
-
We've moved well past "is Keuchel still an ace?" and are approaching "should Keuchel be the one to lose his spot?"

Man, this guy's delivery is distracting in the extreme.

If Altuve takes a bag earlier, when he should have, they lead this game.

Well, there's something you don't see all the time. Props to Springer for busting his butt over there.

Hinch better have somebody ready right about now.
-
Crap, here comes the meltdown.

Hinch is an idiot to leave keuchel in
-
Why the fuck is Keuchel still in this game?

Gutsy play by Castro, good footwork by Marwin. His time at first is paying dividends.

What the FUCK is wrong with Hinch!

There is no fucking way anybody in the league even touches Giles that inning.

In Gomez's rib cage.

That was not the way I expected that inning to unfold.

I assumed that he was covering first like a normal bunt. I didn't realize that Marwin had cocked things up to begin with.

I have to get up early, so I'm quitting now. That has the additional benefit of allowing me to go to sleep holding on to the faint hope of a victory. I'll sleep better that way.

This is what sucks about being on the road in extras. Now, the Astros have to still get 6 more outs...the Sox can win it without having to get any more.

And the three hitters they did have to face in the top of the 10th were essentially automatic outs.
