I'm definitely getting a little concerned about JV lately. Looks like he is pitching a little tired.

A walk, an error and a wild pitch gets Springer home to tie the game top 3. 2 out.

Correa and Marwin both single to bring home White and it's 3-1 Astros. Mid 3.

JV has 2 Ks which puts him over 250 for the year and joins Cole as the first teammates to have over 250 in a season since 2002.

I think the key part was that we were unable to GIDP no matter how hard we tried.... hope JV has got it together now.

They also pass Mike Scott and Nolan Ryan (86) as the most in Astros history by teammates.

Both pitchers have 1-2-3 half-innings and it's still 3-1 Astros. Mid-4.

A walk and a single put runners at the corners with no outs in the bottom of the 6th.

Good job by the Trainer twice redirecting Altuve back to the convo. Not sure he should be in there.
Title: Re: Astros @ Tigers, Sept. 10, 2018
Post by: HudsonHawk on September 10, 2018, 06:50:57 pm
That single was a sharp ground ball right to Altuve who's knee gave out and he just collapsed in a heap.  He's gonna stay in, but that did not look good.

It looked more like he tried to slide to make the play. The ball was a little to his left.

Altuve is chewing on his fingernails every time the camera is on him. How in the world does he have anything other than bloody nubs left?

It was to his left, but he was there, and it looked like he went to plant his left leg and the knee just gave out.  He may have been sliding though, I'll have to look at it again.

The leadoff walk bites him in the ass, but JV managed to get through 6 with a 3-2 lead

It kind of looked like his knee caught the edge of the grass when he went down. He rolled over right as he went down.

Funny how Marwin knew it wasn't getting out right off the bat but it only missed by a foot or two.

He just missed that ball going 400 feet...by about half a millimeter.

Maybe.  Looked like it had some good topspin on it too.

Yeah, I think it was a combination of funky spin and battling the lights.  He stayed with it nicely though.

One of the foul balls he hit right off the end of the bat.  I know that had to send the bees buzzing up his hand and arm.  Hopefully that's all it is.

I think it will be with Springer the rest of the year. He’s lost control of the bat on a number of whiffs recently, one tonight.

Carlos!

I was listening to the radio feed (reinstalled the app and got it to work). The call was 'ground ball to the right side' and I was thinking double play.   Then 'it's past Altuve and he's hurt!'.

I wanted to vomit.

That grounded and Bregman’s throw were plays Altuve makes if he is healthy.
