Jints vs. Astros, 8/20/11
« on: August 20, 2011, 06:22:37 pm »
Inside the park HR by Altuve! Long fly to the wall in LCF, bounced away from the fielders and Altuve never slowed down. Fun to watch for sure, first inside-the-park homer by an Astro since Everett, I think.

The picture of him smiling on the Astros homepage right now is classic — great shot.

The shots from the dugout after Altuve scored in the highlight video are greatness. Everyone is giving Clark shit.

Just got home.  Could someone summarize the scoring up to this point?

Thank you!

I'm just here to help!


Actually, I got nothing. I'm just checking in on the game every few minutes while watching kids.

I don't have all the details, but...
2 scored on a Martinez double
1 on a Paredes single
1 on a Barmes sac that ended up doubling Paredes off of second to end the inning

Is there a free Toby Kieth concert or a monster truck pull going on? Where the hell is everyone?

Haha.  For the end of the game high fives, Lee raised his hand as high as he could for Altuve, who had to jump.  Funny.

Finally had a chance to turn on the game.

THE Altuve!

That is all.

Just got to B&. JD MARTINEZ WITH A BOMB! 4 RBI on the night, tying him with Votto for the most RBIs in the NL in August. AWESOMENESS!!!

In post game presser, Aluve says couldn't see clark around Sandoval.  I wonder if that will work the next time I am pulled over for running a stop sign "I am sorry I didn't see it, there was a big panda in my way"......
