Freese singles to LF
Hit and run...Aybar grounds to the spot Altuve vacated, single to RF for Aybar.  Freese to 3B.  Runners on the corner, nobody out
Giovatello with a tapper back to the mound, out 1-3.  Aybar to 2B, but Freese has to hold at 3B
Cron with a sac fly F9, both runners tag.  Freese scores, Aybar to 3B
Perez singles past a diving Villar, Aybar scores
Calhoun singles to LF, Perez to 2B
Trout pops out F4

But the Angels break the scoreless tie with two runs...lead 2-0

T6:

Altuve reaches on a TE6, as Aybar lollygags an easy grounder then has to rush the throw, which pulls Pujols off the bag.  Let's see if he can not get picked off this time
Valbuena strikes out looking
Gattis flies out F9 in foul territory
Rasmus...on a 3-2 pitch...with a soft liner to 2B

Middle of the 6th...Angels 3  Astros 0

At the half in LA...Rockets trail 64-57

T8:

Tucker strikes out swinging on a hanging change up
Villar grounds back to the mound...1-3
Altuve with a single to RF
Valbuena flies out F9 at the RF wall to end the inning

Astros still have not put a runner in scoring position

Hernandez out, with 2 out in the 8th, and a runner on 1B.  He did a good job.  Gave up six singles and didn't walk anyone.  Wish they could have gotten him some runs.

B8:

Perez hits a liner to 3B, and Valbuena with a leaping stab to his backhand.  Put a blue star next to that one
Calhoun strikes out looking
Trout hit by pitch

Hinch out to the mound...that's it for Hernandez.  Josh Fields in for the Stros

Trout steals 2B, moves to 3B on a TE2, as the throw bounces and Altuve can't handle it
Pujols grounds out 4-3 to end the inning

Three outs left for the Astros...chasing a pair

Weaver trying for the CG shutout...

Gattis strikes out swinging
Rasmus flies out F8

Well that was probably the worst offensive game of the year.  Astros never got past 1B.

Good game for Hernandez, but offense, except Altuve, can't hit 80 mph changeups.

CGSO by a guy who came into the game with an 0-4/6.25 record. What a pitiful effort.

Absolutely solid start for Carmonandez-I'll take it. It's a pity that the offense was so moribund and inept tonight against a hittable hurler who hung pitches all night to no avail.
