Andrus thrown out at second, whines about out and calls for a replay. His manager ignores him and he eventually exits the field.

B3:

Andrus singles past Lowrie, to lead off
with Odor (how does your dog smell?  Terrible) batting...Andrus thrown out 2-6 trying to steal 2B, 1 out
Odor doubles to LF
Chirinos (is that Spanish for "really small churro"?) grounds out 6-3, two away
Martin (pronounced "mar-TEEN") grounds out 3-1 to end the inning

Rangers with a couple of hits, but nothing to show for it.

End of 3, Astros still up 1-0.

Astros still up by one.

I was just thinking that. Carter actually looks pretty comfortable at first this year.

I'd like to see him there without a glove a bit more often

Wahoo! A run scrambles in and the throw at 2nd goes goofy. Got a runner on 3rd now and a 3-1 lead.

T7:

Somebody Mendez in to pitch for the Rangers...

Villar flies out 7
Castro strikes out swinging
Grossman doubles over CFers head
Marisnick singles to CF, Grossman scores...Marisnick moves into 2B on the throw home (that's why you have a cutoff man boys and girls), and then advances to 3B on a throwing error as Chirinos throws the ball into CF.  Astros get a run back.
Altuve strikes out swinging.  Inning over.

Astros back to a 2-run lead...3-1.

I would like to see him standing on second after he hits the ball to the wall.

I missed it, but the Ranger didn't score.

Still 3-1 Astros.

Feliz in for the Rangers...

Gattis leads off and promptly strikes out (imagine that)  to remain 0 fer 2015
Villar grounds out 6-3
Castro draws a 2-out walk
Rasmus, who entered the game for Grossman in RF, HOMERS to RF...Castro scores, Rasmus scores!
Marisnick with a slow roller past the pitcher for an infield single...under review...yep, he's safe

Bannister out...pitching change...Feliz out, Klein in...

Marisnick swipes 2B
Altuve flies out F8 to end the inning.  But the Astros make it a non-save situation..

Heading to the bottom of the 9th, Astros up 5-1

With swings like that, DDJ projects to be a middle of the order bat for the Astros.

Gregerson in to try and close it out

Fielder leads off with a double
Rosales in to run for the fat kid.
DeShields strikes out swinging
Moreland grounds out 3-1, after Carter bobbles the ball a few times.  Stick a fork in it, big guy
Andrus strikes out swinging to end it.

Astros win 5-1!

Good win, boys, good win!

It was a good win. Marisnick and Rasmus save the offense while McHugh and the pen do a fine job.

Fuck the Rangers

I'm hearing there were 3 injuries for the stRangers today-- one of which was a shoulder strain for Holland, putting him out 4-6 weeks.
