Love the jerseys tonight.

Weiland has a ton of movement on his pitches, but is the control there?

I thought that Uggla got more of that one than he did. Weiland got away with one.

I would have, too. That looked awfully high on him. I know a pitcher wants that called, but all he could do would be popping it up.

He took three called strikes in that AB, which isn't necessarily bad for a first look.

The strike zone is odd. I thought the previous pitch was in there, but it was a ball. That one was high and outside (from my bad view), but called.

Tough to double up Bourn.

Lee (with Colt on the front of his jersey and 45 o the back) has taken out players before.

The difference is that he's throwing strikes with that breaking stuff. He's going to go six or so tonight. Too many pitches earlier to last longer than that.

Nope. His command isn't good, but I've seen some body language of Weiland that leads me to conclude that he was. I recognize that look.

The rules of distinction were thrown out with the baseball cap.  It does not lend itself to protocol.  It is found today on youth in homes, classrooms, even in fine restaurants.  Regardless of its other consequences, this is a breach against civility.  A civilized man should avoid this mania.

Felix Fraga was a good friend of my Dad back in the days in 2nd Ward. Came to my Dad's funeral to pay his respects even after all those years of losing touch. Somehow he found out and came to the funeral services.

He's a great guy.  And it is a good baseball family.

His calls are for the most part right on FoxTraks. However, on the pitches that they haven't checked, Meals has been very inconsistent.

He's a great guy.  And it is a good baseball family.

My uncle Hector took over for my Dad in his Gulf Coast league team, and soon afterwards my uncle started a pony league squad (that I was not a part of because we moved out of 2nd Ward). But my uncle was having a hard time finding a league to play in and also a practice facility for the team. My dad called Felix and soon they were practicing at Ripley House and soon afterwards, the 2nd Ward had a full fledged pony league going on. One of the best in Houston at the time.

I never played in that league because it would have meant taking three city buses to get down there in time to play.  Too bad, but that is the type of guy Felix was for our family.  He loved talking baseball with my dad too. Both big Astros fans as well.

His son Bolivar ran for city council this year.  Lost, but a fine young man.  It was easy to tell people I was supporting Bolivar because Felix had always been so kind to me.  Nice play by Schreefer.

That's absolutely right. I like this club. It may well lose 95 games, but I like this team. They're playing the game the way it is supposed to be played.

I dunno Mr. H. A couple things that I thought of:

1. This team cannot afford to be in a sluggfest against other teams. They must get good pitching to stay in games, if they try to play this way all season, they're going to repeat last year's woeful season easily.
2. Carlos Lee's propensity to not hustle out of the box probably cost the team one run (probably). All in all, not a good thing to have the veteran leader of the team *not* hustle out of the box.
3. Synder was in a weird position to catch the ball from Gonzales on the slow as molasses McCann. Too bad because Marwin did a nice job catching and throwing on the relay and Synder just has to be better at rewarding the young man by doing his part and being in front of the plate, not behind it.

But I will say this, they didn't give up... but they also put themselves in this hole by not playing the game as good as they could have either. Hopefully they'll learn to not take nights off like this and give a team a win instead of making them earn it.

I dunno Mr. H. A couple things that I thought of:

1. This team cannot afford to be in a sluggfest against other teams. They must get good pitching to stay in games, if they try to play this way all season, they're going to repeat last year's woeful season easily.
2. Carlos Lee's propensity to not hustle out of the box probably cost the team one run (probably). All in all, not a good thing to have the veteran leader of the team *not* hustle out of the box.
3. Synder was in a weird position to catch the ball from Gonzales on the slow as molasses McCann. Too bad because Marwin did a nice job catching and throwing on the relay and Synder just has to be better at rewarding the young man by doing his part and being in front of the plate, not behind it.

But I will say this, they didn't give up... but they also put themselves in this hole by not playing the game as good as they could have either. Hopefully they'll learn to not take nights off like this and give a team a win instead of making them earn it.

I agree with all of your points. Carlos doesn't hustle sometimes, but he made some key plays tonight.

His son Bolivar ran for city council this year.  Lost, but a fine young man.  It was easy to tell people I was supporting Bolivar because Felix had always been so kind to me.  Nice play by Schreefer.

If Bolivar was the democrat gay mexican jewish air force veteran but registered as a republican son of a long time city councilman, then I voted for him.

Yeah An African American Republican won, and Bolivar lost the GLBT Caucus endorsement to a transgender lesbian.   

I think it was Christi Thibaut supporters who said he was a Republican--you don't register in Texas but he had voted in the Republican primary once or twice.  I hadn't known that the Democrats were still holding primaries in Texas.  I don't think Bolivar is Jewish though, only your typical Democrat gay Mexican Air Force Academy graduate who had voted in a couple of Repulican primaries.  For judges, he said.  Who the heck knows who's running for judge?

There are two Fraga brothers I've met, Lupe and Felix. As I recall one family member played baseball at A&M and one played baseball at U of H.

Yeah, he voted for a friend in the republican primary in 2010. 

As for the Jewish thing, I looked back in my voting notes from the recent municipal election and dug up that Fraga received the 2010 "Emerging Leaders Certificate" from the American Jewish Committee & Consulate of Mexico in Houston.  I knew he wasn't Mexican (citizenship-wise) so I just assumed on top of his many labels he was Jewish too.

Felix was a big UofH supporter/fan, so I'm guessing Lupe was the one who went to A&M. Felix also got some of my cousins involved in local politics, so a couple of them ran for positions, knowing full well they were not going to oust the incumbent. It was, at best, a lesson on getting involved and putting yourself out there. Very proud of the involvement my cousins put into it.
