Somebody *has* to get a fucking hit when it counts. Yordan and Correa are the latest failures, leaving the bases loaded in the top of the 1st.

Yeah, Yordan not even putting the ball in play and striking out on 4 pitches was frustrating. Needed to score at least a sacrifice there. Hopefully the 30ish pitches they made Bassitt throw in the first will prove advantageous.

Yordan struck out? Good grief.
-
Even before the game began, few were overwhelmed by high expectations for a Houston-positive outcome.

Bassitt threw him a 71 mph curve at the top of the zone at 1-2 and completely destroyed his timing.

Springer is in a funk too.

He did lead off the 1st with a single but stranded at 3rd by Alvarez and Correa

Armenteros with a clean 2nd inning.

Was that his only swing?

4 pitches all top of the zone:
Ball, Foul, Foul, Swinging Strike.
At least he gets the sac fly this time. 2-0 Astros.

This all is still a learning experience for him.

How the hell does a ball curve that far back fair after passing the foul pole?
That was nuts.

I've never seen that before.

Me either. It didn't come back a little bit, either. It was a good 5 feet fair after passing the foul pole foul.
-
Here we go again.
-
Come on Armenteros. Don’t give those runs back.
-
Fuck, the luck continues.
-
God damn it, a fucking check swing hopper goes into no-man's land and loads the bases. What have we done to deserve this?
-
Fuck. The unraveling begins.

Then Grossman excuse-me swings a single on top of it.
Fuck the way things have been going lately. Ridiculous.

I doubt that Chapman's inevitable hit will be an excuse-me.

Get him out of there.

Is anyone warming?

Still feeling good about that AL West lead?
-
Good news: Chapman didn't get a hit. Bad news: he got a walk. So there are 2 runs in, the bases are still loaded, and there are still no outs.
-

Yeah, lets go to the ridiculously overtaxed bullpen for the next 21 outs.
What could possibly go wrong?

This is true, but it can't be worse than what's going on right now.
-
Another fucking bloop hit.
-

That's 100 percent not true.
If the bullpen comes in and has to get 7 innings of outs, that means the bully is even more wrecked for the next few days.
Frankly, I'd rather leave Armenteros to get his brains beat in if he can't wiggle out of this inning without much more damage than waste the bullpen on a shit sandwich like this is looking to be.
-
Oh Canna, you fucking idiot. Thank you.
-
Untuckingbelievable, has not gotten an out after getting a lead.
-
Which one of you offended the BBGs? Maybe it was Bregman saying all Astros fans should go get assumed freebies from Gallery Furniture.
-
The thing of it is that Armenteros really hasn't been all that bad. He's given up a few hits that were his fault, but he's been the victim of some really rotten luck, too. But all of the things that aren't going the Astros' way *are* going the A's way.

It's amazing how when things are going your way every bounce favors you.
Thanks Todd.

Springer swinging like he can tie it.

How has this clownboat only given up 2 runs?

He has the good fortune of pitching to another clown show.

Good inning by Armenteros in the 4th.

25 percent of his pitches have been right down the middle and taken by the Astros.
-
Positive - Yordan just demolished a ball to the upper deck.
Negative - The Astros will give up 2 more runs in the bottom of this inning.

Case in point: Correa takes strike 1 and Strike 2 middle of zone.

Devo is here to save the day... walks the first batter

I think it's a rule now, whenever you score, you must walk the leadoff hitter the next inning.
-
Way to slam the door, Devo. What a shitshow.

Of fucking course he does.
-
This pitching is way past ridiculous.
-
I was hoping he would send Armenteros out to start the 5th and replace him after one base runner allowed.

I was hoping he would bring him out to actually pitch the 5th. His 4th was fine. And I have no confidence whatsoever in Devo.

Positive - Yordan just demolished a ball to the upper deck.
Negative - The Astros will give up 2 more runs in the bottom of this inning.
2 runs? I'll have what he's having.
-
Slick play by Altuve to get that out.
-
This game would stay a lot closer if the Astros stopped scoring.
-

I was giving them too much credit, apparently.
-
behind 5-3, allowing one run would have been bad enough, but Devo has to be extra about it and allow 3. This team is as snakebit as when they lost 7 in a row.
-
12 of 17 innings giving up runs after scoring.

Here comes the Altuve double play. Book it.

Greinke tomorrow or Miley?

Is there any doubt that Blum will pull a hamstring with this stunt?
-
Blummer abandoned the booth and is now waiting in line at the Racing With Ricky kids attraction in right field.
And seriously, fuck the way things are going currently.

This is the best reason to watch a game this week

Julia is actually pretty great as a color (wo)man.
Shame the on the field product is so shitty.
-
The Blum adventure continues, he's at Shibe Park Tavern now, and talking to someone in the brewery.
Man, Maldonado's body language on some of these bottom of the zone tells a pretty telling story.
-
Maybe Yordan will get going again. We need a W tomorrow.

Tomorrow is a must win. It's a 2-game differenve in the standings. No win tomorrow, and the division actually is open for business.

Yankees keep rolling, pulling away from Astros for AL best record.

Astros need to worry about winning tomorrow and hope to make the postseason. Best record is a long way from a concern.

I just hope the Astros give it their best shot and the Good Lord willing, things will work out.

Greinke looks like he might know how to breathe through his eyelids, so maybe we have a chance.

Exactly they talked way too much about best record.
