Fly out to Bregfield.

Bases juiced with no outs for Altuve.

Also, today is March 29th.
Or 30th, take your pick.
So. what I miss?
-
Marwin off to a crumby start: 0-2 with a K, GIDP and 3 lobsters.
-
Verlander picks off the Stink at first,
-
Odor is such a freakin clown.
-
Fuck off stinky.
-
Verlander picks off the Stink at first,
Loved the demonstrative 'no, no challenge it motion" followed by the out by a mile replay.
-
Jake, Jake , Jake, Jake!
-
MARISnick puts the Astros up 3-0.
-
JAKE!!
-
Crazy power from big Jake.
-

That was freakin' great.
-
Jake making an early claim on being the everyday center fielder!
-
Those vendors sure have bright yellow shirts on.
-
Stingy little strike zone. Who’s this ump?
-
My general impression is that Verlander doesn’t look particularly sharp today, but he’s thrown 53 pitches and given up 2 hits in four scoreless. What an amazing pitcher.

Defensive help is nice too.

Too soon.

Jerry Meals. He's... not great.
-
I'm glad the Astros can get some of their games in "The Oven" before it really warms up later in the season.
-
Joey Gallo looks like an orangutan. His broad flanges indicate virility.
-
I literally love Justin Verlander.
-
Helluva job by JV.
-
Helluva job by JV.
Yes it was. Toughest part of the lineup and he just gutted through it. Last pitch of the day hit 96. Wow.
-
Devo nails so far! Choo pops out to short and the next two guys K.
-
Utterly satisfying to watch Odor flail at the COD.
-
Correa deep to the gap, Altuve first to home.
Seems familiar.
-
Reddick in postseason form.

Meals is a shitty, shitty umpire.
-
The strike zone really expanded on Gattis.
-
Meals is an asshole.
-
Meals is a shitty, shitty umpire.
FTR broadcast interviewed Manfred and brought up automated balls/strikes. He shot it down pretty quickly.
-
Right on cue, HPU makes the case for automated balls/ strikes.
Ridiculous called strike 3.
-
Meals' strikezone was a postage stamp through 5, and now he's calling pitches 6 inches off the corner. Fucking scrub.
-
Until it’s a stamp again for Andrus.
-
The fact that so few umpires seem to be able to maintain a consistent strike zone throughout the same game, let alone multiple umpires over many games, makes me want an automated strike zone.
However, I wonder what the true implications of an absolutely consistent strike zone would be. My guess is that it would be good for offense.

Giles is going to be maddening.

Yep.

Same as it ever was...

Great job, Astros!
-
1-0!!
-
Nice to start with a win.
-
Acceptable start to the season.
-
Man, I'm so glad they didn't lose.

Should have saved it for Giles.

That was a fun win and felt very 2017. Can’t wait for tomorrow!
