Yuli ain’t dead yet.

Piña power!

I wanted to see anything other than a fastball right down the middle.
-
Touch ‘em all, Yuli!
No, seriously. It doesn’t count if you don’t.

I'm pretty sure that Yuli as giving the "where's the oxygen" sign in the dugout.
-
Tough luck for Chirinos.
Ball 4 found his bat then the whiffs on a nasty low FB.
-
T2:
Gurriel homers to LCF
Reddick...0-2...1-2...2-2...strikes out looking
Chirinos strikes out swinging
Straw with a bloop singles to RF
Urquidy, in his first at bat...like ever...but first Straw goes to 2B on a passed ball...taps back to the mound
2-1 Astros
-
Urquidy may want to rethink his 'fall behind then catch a lot of plate' strategy.
-
My contribution to the Twitter Tuesday "weird game" category is Jim Clancy's great start on 8/3/89 in Cincinnati, where the Astros surrendered 14 runs in the 1st inning. Maybe not "weird" per se, but it was memorable. Clancy faced 7 batters, gave up 6 hits and a walk, and was charged with 7 earned runs. Then Bob Forsch came in and gave up 10 more over the course of 7 innings.
-
Another frustrating dinker for a hit.
-
Runner read that well to get to 3rd.
-
Urquidy has been shiftfucked a couple of times already.
-
It's looking like the bullpen will get some work tonight.

Not by the bloop hit. That was the gigantic OF.

Dammit.

Big K there.

The shift left 3B uncovered allowing another 90 feet.

Walk makes it 1st/3rd with 2 outs . . .

Sneed expecting to see a lot of work tonight.

B2:
Desmond singles to LF
McMahon...3-0...3-1...3-2...jam shot looper just over SS, a single to LF, Desmond to 2B and nobody is covering 3B on the shift, so Desmond moves to 3B
Wild pitch, Desmond scores, McMahon to 2B
Wolters...3-2...strikes out looking
Marquez...who's been more productive than Tyler White...grounds out 4-3...McMahon to 3B
Blackmon walks
Story...0-2...strikes out swinging
Tied again 2-2 after 2
If we're 8-8 at midnight...

Thank you. I’ll have another, please.

Straw leads the 4th with a 4-3 grounder, Urquidy Ks, Springer Ks looking.
Mid 4
5-2 Astros

You need to specify runs or outs.
-
And that's all for Urquidy. He leaves after 3.2 and runners at 2B and 3B. James in
-
James nails down another zero. Nice job to get a tough hitter.
-
Nice pitch by James to finish off Blackmon. If he can harness that change, it could be huge for him.
-
Big K from James.
-
I still think we're gonna need more runs.
-

You are not paying attention.
-
Bit of a mixed bag from Urquidy, but I'll take it.
Interesting mix of pitches.
And that's a tough lineup/stadium to make your debut.
-

No fucking way. Urquidy did a good job.
-

I'm paying plenty of attention. I was trying to make a joke, but I obviously failed.

Ask a pitcher to put up a zero: only one meaning.

Altuve singles but is stranded after Bregman grounds out (Altuve to 2nd, running on the pitch), Brantley Ks, and Yuli grounds out.
Yuli got down the line well.
5-2 Astros
-
That may have been a swing by Arenado.
-
Well, this is an unwelcome development...Rockies with bases loaded, nobody out...
-
2 soft hits then a walk.
Bases juiced.
Zero outs.
-
Control has deserted him.
-
James walks in a run...bases still loaded...

James is so infuriating to watch sometimes. He's just fucking slinging everything.
-
2-run double...we're tied, Rox on 2B and 3B, still nobody out...
-
Thank God we got the rookie out of there.
Fucking putrid outing from James after one good AB the inning before.
-
And there goes the lead.

Jesus Fucking Christ, Altuve.
What a fucking shitburger of a throw.

That inning wasn't very fun to watch

Ball singles to right center, Story to 3rd
Arrenado walks
Murphy walks, Story scores
Desmond doubles into the RF corner, Ball and Arenado score
McMahon 4-3, Arenado scores, Desmond to 3rd

Marquez F9
Rockies lead 7-5.

Seems like if you need 3 outs from him, he'll give you 2.
That was pathetic.

That's really what you want from a 2-0 swing: harmless grounder the SS right at the bag.

Altuve having a rough night with the glove.

Tough night in the field for Altuve.
Alligator arms on that line drive.

Rockies again with the bases loaded and nobody out...

This is familiar.

Might have taken his eye off of it to peak at the runner at 1B. No error charged, but that's a play that he normally makes.
-
Bregman's rowit pulls Chirinos off the plate.
It's pouring.
-
Slow roller to 3B, and Bregman's throw home pulls Chirinos off the plate. Astros challenging...looks safe to me...yep, confirmed.
8-5, bases still loaded, still nobody out.
-
2 batted balls that should have resulted in outs.
-
Ruling that a hit . . . for now.
Whatever.

Altuve and Bregman owe Harris a dinner.
-
Altuve and Bregman gave them that one. Altuve should burn this glove and get a new one.
Plus the bad throw home which gave up another one, and the fumble on the potential DP ball.
-
Sure is nice to have George back.
-
Leadoff double.
Let's get some runs back.

How the fuck did Tuve not only hit that but keep it fair AND get it far enough to not be caught??

How the hell did Altuve even touch that ball?

It's raining doubles!

Amazing that James managed to walk those 2 batters with this HPU's wide (but consistent) zone.

Baseball almanac says they averaged more than 37,000 a game last year.

Oh, Devo, please don't do this.

I wonder about batter interference on that throw.

Catch the ball, Myles.
(Snow cone, ball knocked out by runner)

Damn, Chirinos had that guy.

Devo!

Leadoff walk, stolen base (Straw dropped the ball) but Devo Ross the ship for a scoreless 7th.

Have to catch that.

Pressly on in the 8th for Story, Ball, and Arenado.

To the 9th.
Insurance, please.

4th hit of the game for Altuve to start the 9th.

Altuve is 4 for 5 hitting pitches in the next zip code.
Yep, he's back.
