Rangers lose 6-0 to an unidentified National League team.

That Springer guy leads off with an opposite field HR. 1-0.

He really seems to dislike those Starbucks sippin seafarin simps.
-
Fister sets them down 1-2-3 in the first with a couple of flyouts and something else I missed when the wife beckoned.
-
Paxton puts the Astros down 1-2-3 in the second. Gomez hit the ball hard but lined out to 3rd. I wish the Astros had a southpaw SP that threw like Paxton. I did a Similarity Search for him and the #1 comp was JA Happ.
-
He doesn't look like the Happ I remember.
-
Fister gets out of the 2nd with a K after allowing a single to the talented Seager from the Silver Bullet Band.
-
Marisnick nearly decaps Paxton with a line single up the middle. One on, no outs, Castro up.
-
Line drive single by Castro to LF puts runners first and second. Springer hits first pitch to SS who bobbles a DP chance but gets the force at 2b. Runners on the corners with one down.
-
Inning fizzles with a 5-4-3 DP hit into by Marwin. Where is everybody? It's not football season yet.

Friday night, I assume a number will be passed out drunk by now?

Great slap tag there by Valbuena

Late game so I am tea-totaling or I would not make it.
3 up 3 down for Fister as he gives up a 2-out 2b to Marte who is out trying to stretch it to 3rd. Called out on the replay after appearing to be safe. Valbuena placed the tag right on his coconut as he slid in. Marte also seemed to be shaken a bit. Gomez made the nice throw.

A concern that is finally nice to have, an abundance of talented players.

Very well done, I thought the runner was safe after every replay, until the slow motion view.

Third
Nice to see those ropes by Jose and Correa.

Gomez did not take the most efficient route to that ball that Marte hit. Marisnick catches it.
-
Gomez, of course, chased two pitcher's pitches to kill the inning.

Altuve and Correa on first and second with two line singles. Gomez bounces in DP with Altuve advancing to 3rd.
Val flies out...promising inning derailed by DP.
-

Foxing the runner into trying for third?

Only 86% route efficiency according to the statcast or whatever Darren Willman uses
-

Yes, he would rather throw 'em out than catch the ball.
-
Jake catches Fly ball near foul line and then holds finger up saying he's number 1. Or, maybe he wants Gomez to know there is one out.

Scoring question for the wizards here about a situation that came up in my friend's son's game this afternoon. Situation: runners on 1st and 3rd, less than 2 outs. Batter hits a pop-up to 2nd, but the 2B drops it. He recovers and forces the runner at 2nd, with the batter replacing him at 1st and the runner on 3rd staying put. How do you score that? I called it a fielder's choice and no error, but the official scorer charged an error to the 2B. How would you score it?

When the weather is on point as it appears to be this evening, Seattle is a phenomenal place to be.

I don't think that's an error, just an out at second.

I would score it how you did.

I'm not sure you can have an error without a runner reaching or, in this case, advancing. But I really don't know.
-
Damn it, Gattis, still no triples.
-
If Gattis can get going and Gurriel and/or Bregman contribute, this offense could be fierce.

That's will get the run in Jake. Now add on.

Yeah, it seems to me that there has to be some sort of harm: extra out, extra base, extra run, something. The net effect after this play was no different than if he had caught the pop-up.

Man, I wish he could do that with some consistency. I'd love to see Jake be the guy in CF next year. Almost seems like there is enough offense to support his defense anyway.
-
I surely like Marisnick.
-
Yes, he would rather throw 'em out than catch the ball.
I resolved to be more optimistic in the second half.

That was my thinking...there was no damage done.

Castros did a nice job to advance the runner to 3rd

Don't you know it.....a single after getting thrown out at home.

Wait, did the 2B drop the ball with intent?

Correa just missed a knock but still pretty solid!

Correa scores from second on a wild pitch! That's one of the really exciting plays that you don't see all that often, and it wasn't even close

Why did they even pitch to Correa when Gomez was on deck?

I was paying attention to something else and hear "Correa scores on a wild pitch" wait what? He was on second!

Important situation for fister here with one in, two in scoring position, and two out with O'malley up

Surprised they're leaving him in.

No, I don't think so.
So why no error if he dropped the ball?

Trying to get him the W.
-

Because there was no benefit to the offensive team. No runner advanced and no extra on base.
-
fister to pitch to Cano as the tying run.
-
Whew!!! Cano dribbles out to the mound to end the inning with two on.
-
Feliz struggles a little but gets through the 6th with no damage. still 6-3 Houston after 6.
-
That was an adequate play there by Correa
-
Astros win. Devenski closes it out.

No error should be charged here. The rule book, at least the professional one, specifically addresses this situation and states that no error is charged for a dropped ball if the fielder recovers in time to get a force out.

If you thought the shift pissed people off before, wait until we play three 3b and a 2b.
