The game started an hour early. It's 2 to 0 in favor of the Astros in the bottom of the 2nd.
-
Springer dinger makes it 3 to 0.
-
Bregman and Brantley drew 2 out walks (Uncle Mike could have been rung up; very close).
Alvarez then absolutely scorched a ball past 1B. Ball had a nice draw to it; ran into foul territory then hugged the fence all the way around back into fair territory. RFer fielded it 15 feet in fair territory on the track.
Ball looked like a pinball getting launched

Well shit. My goddamn feed keeps cutting out.

I hope all the people in that country pirate MLBtv and get to see Yordan and Yuli.

Cubans launching missiles in Anaheim.

5 to 0 now. I'm forced to watch on iPhone. WiFi at home is acting up.
-
Blum says "Good to see these Astros bats waking up" just as Tyler White takes a 92 mph meatball.
-

That was 100% a strike, I'll take it though.
-
Mike Trout is leading the league in HR RBI BB SLG OBP OPS and IBB. He's pretty good.
-

To be fair, Bregman's first at bat was a walk where he took 5 pitches, all out of the zone, and had a 3-2 count.
Also, could someone call the dugout phone and tell Altuve to stop being so fucking impatient and hitting sliders with a rolled up newspaper?
-
I really like Miley. He reminds me a bit of Mark Buehrle.
-
The 2 characters sitting in that special box behind the left batter's box are fascinating.
The light haired one looks like Charlton Heston in Planet of the Apes.
The other one looks like the most serious motherfucker on the planet.
-
Bregxit!

Looks like a Weekend at Bernie's situation happening right above the State Farm sign too.

If he ain't dead, wake him up.
-
Well shit. They got a hit.
-
Home fans bully an Astros fan to toss back Bregman's HR ball.
Opps.....
Nice!
Dad catches Bregman's HR, hands to son.
Son throws the ball, but not far enough.
Another fan returns it to him.
Happy ending!
-
Flipping web pages when a quick glimpse of Miley at the mound looked for all the world like White....
-
Why would you walk Tyler White
-
Wow George, unhitch the motherfucking trailer man.
-
Simmons is a pretty sweet shortstop.
-
Fletcher is good.
-
Goddamnit. Altuve has had a few headscratchers on throws the last week.
-
Jeez, Altuve just whiffed on that throw.
-
Jeez, Altuve just whiffed on that throw.
One run credited to Jose Altuve.
-
Jeez, Altuve just whiffed on that throw.
Yep
-
Leadoff hit for Fletcher then a ground ball to 3rd, Altuve whiffs on the throw.
Upton gets a sac fly deep to right.
6-1 Astros.
1 out runner on 1st.
Harris up in the pen.
-
Fletcher is good.
He is Marwin 2.0
-
Why would you walk Tyler White
Out of pity maybe?
-
Man, Altuve's error just totally fucked Miley out of another inning of work.
-
He is Marwin 2.0
Better contact hitter.
-
Gameday is claiming that was a throwing error on Yuli. Nuts.
-
Simmons smacked one past Bregman.
2 on, 1 out.
Harris relieves Miley.
Another nice outing from Wade.
-
0-2 pitch. Great
-

Trickle down effect of giving away outs.
Now it's 6-2, still 2 on 2 out.
-
Fuck.
-
0-2 pitch. Great
Terrible. Pujols smacked that like he was sitting on it.
-

Slapped not smacked. But yes.

Pujols has straight up teed off on Astros pitching this series. Even moreso than usual
-
Nice DP!
-
Tyler White - Defensive specialist.
-
Um Will, that's 3 outs buddy.
-
Needed that DP.
-
Tyler White - Defensive specialist.
He does have soft hands.
(Yes I, I know)
-
Calhoun looked safe on the replay.
-
What the hell is Altuve swinging at?
-
At least Altuve made up for his defensive mistake with his bat!!
-
Jesus Fucking Christ, Jose.
If you didn't want to play tonight, you should've just asked for the night off.
-
What the hell is Altuve swinging at?
What isn't he swinging at?
-
There are games Altuve looks like he is not trying. This is one.
-
What isn't he swinging at?
The 0-1 pitch wasn't so much a swing as much as a push.
-

That rivaled one he had a couple of weeks ago. How such a great hitter like hims has ABs like that is baffling. Like Tiger Woods whiffing on a tee shot.
-
Come on, Yordan. Don’t chase.
-
Just think how good Altuve would be if he was perfect.
-
McHugh gets the 7th inning duty.
-
Makeup call for the one he missed.
-
Makeup call for the one he missed.
And the exact same pitch gets the strikeout.
-
Strikeout then a double.
1 on 1 out.
-
Flyball and a popup end the 7th.
McHugh looked sharp.

Fletcher was a big out.

Agreed. Also, I was very happy he was able to get Fletcher. Didn’t want to deal with Trout with two guys on.
-
Astros offense has disengaged.
-
Pressly in for the 8th.
Trout and Pressly battle. Trout doubles on a 3-2 slider that doesn't slide.
-
Pressly carved up Upton.
Threw a freaking dart on the outside corner to get him looking.
-
Quit crying Upton, that was a strike.
-
Simmons hits one up the box, Pressly deflects it and gets him 1-3.
Trout to 3rd with 2 outs.
-
Pressly gets Thais looking.
Another masterpiece K.
He good.
-

He channeled his inner McHugh on this one.
-
Osuna strikes out the first 2 batters in the 9th, gets Goodwin in an 0-2 hole but Goodwin triples to right.
Ohtani pinch hits, Ks swinging.
Astros win 6-2.
Hinch ties Dierker for franchise's managerial wins.
-
Back to back changeups get Ohtani.
-
Good win. That said, I think Altuve should sit tomorrow. Another horrible throw from him in the ninth inning.
-
In other news, the Twins beat the A’s so the Astros’ division lead is now 5.5 games.
