Fiers worked a homeless first inning.

Fiers worked a homeless first inning.
He will be homeless if he doesn't improve soon.

Lousy luck.... pop fly tracking foul hits the roof and falls fair.
-
PB by Gattis costs a run. Can't blame Fiers for that inning.

Strike zone is all over the place so far today.
Aoki was just about to the fence tracking the ball that hit the roof. I wonder if it had enough to get in to the Crawford Boxes had the roof not gotten in the way.
-
Through three innings, the Astros look 100 percent uninterested in hitting today. Taking hittable pitches and flailing at garbage.
-
Hey, shocker here: Fiers gives up a home run.

Well, you knew that was coming.

Now just waiting for the next one...
TV guys just said that in all of his starts so far (this is number 8), Fiers has given up at least 2 homers in each one.

He's averaging one every other inning. He's actually ahead of his pace for this game. But you know more are coming.
-
Someone let Altuve know that pitches over his head aren't strikes.
-
Our guys don't match up well against this team for some reason.

It doesn't help that they all seem to be left-handed.

But that's not the reason they swing at pitches over their heads.
-
So I just tuned in and saw the that the Astros are already down 2-0 and haven't got a hit yet.

Right-hander we've never seen before. It was to be expected.
-
This shit is fucking putrid.
The scrub just surpassed his career strikeout high in the fifth inning.
Taking strikes and swinging at slop.
-

I was really thinking about their pitching primarily in which they are mostly right-handed.

We've seen Baur before. His ERA would be like 9 w/o facing Houston this season.

He's never gotten through the 6th inning in his career before either. Unless the Astros unleash on him, he's making all sorts of career history today.

And he looks like a cocker spaniel.

Hey...I have two cocker spaniels...both are better looking than this oaf.

Are you talking about Bauer last night? Clevinger is pitching today. I'm confused.

yes, Bauer.
-

I'm sure they are.
-
Having pitches in his eyes called strikes isn't going to help Altuve not swinging at pitches there.
-
That call should be overturned. Longest outing of Clevinger's career...a no-hitter in progress.
-
Joe West was in absolutely no position to make a call on that steal.
He is a fucking joke of an umpire.
-
I can't take any more of this. Time to take Buster for a walk and listen on the radio for a while.
-
It makes me giddy when West's calls get overturned.
-
Just now tuning in. Has this Carrot Top fucker's stuff been that good or are the Astros just dickstepping at the plate?
-
Fucking finally.

A little of both. As Altuve just legs a double into a single. The Astros' first hit.
-
And Correa promptly rolls into a perfect 6-4-3 double play.
-
Clevinger's finish on his delivery is terribly annoying. It wouldn't surprise me if it was accompanied by a Monica Seles-esque grunt.

Didn't think I'd be saying this...but hopefully Clevinger's done and the Astros will get a shot at the Indians' bullpen.

I hope this performance is pissing the Astros off as much as it's pissing me off.

They read the GZ so they know the sky is not falling. It's all good. Sunshine and unicorn shit.
-
Fucking umpire! How was that not a strike? And now it leads directly to another run.

Do you really think it matters? The Astros have one hit and no runs in the last 10 innings.

Miller's numbers are ridiculous: 0.45 ERA, 0.75 WHIP.

It helps when hitters ignore the cookies right down the middle. And he gets 47 inches off the plate.
-
You know, swinging the fucking bats would help score some runs. Or is that too much to ask?
-
It would suck if Marwin just banged himself up.
-
SWING THE FUCKING BAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
I don't think you can hit a ball harder than Reddick just did.
-
And more Springer dick stepping baserunning, down by three runs in the 9th. Allsome.
-
1 run in the last 15 innings...but sunshine and unicorn shit. Right where we want em.
-
Of everyone in the stadium Springer should have had the best read on that liner. Instead he's out there jerking back and forth like Hunter Pence having a palsied fit.
-
This team can't hit. I guess Fiers is gonna have to pitch a shut-out to get a win.
-
Maybe we should trade for Clevinger.

A shutout would not have gotten him a win today either.

Good news: Cabrera and Martinez are back for Detroit, and they're lighting up the Rangers. Bad news: they're coming to Houston next.
