McCullers with a nice and aggressive first.  Pretty impressive, even the 0-2 FB hit by Cabrera was a nice pitch.

Astros get on the board in the 2nd...leadoff double by Marwin, moves to 2B on a Marisnick groundout and sac fly by Altuve.

1-0 Astros

Tigers tie it up in the bottom half of the 3rd...leadoff infield single by Inglesias on a ball that traveled well over 20 feet, rides home on a 400 ft double by Gose.

bases loaded and groundout on first pitch doesn't help either.

Anyone thinking this team is a pitcher away from the playoffs needs to start watching them.  McMullers totally messed up out #1.

that was my point, a pitcher won't change bad fielding and lack of hitting.

Now a throwing error by Altuve on a double play ball plates another run, and puts runners on 1B and 2B still with no one out.

and now Ashby is saying its not fair to McMullers,  Hell, he'd have an out and maybe no one on base, but he didn't make his play.

But we did get to see a triple play.

They can be so frustrating to watch.  2 errors and a triple play in one inning.

Gattis is SO frustrating to watch.  Half his swings are with one hand as he's falling across the plate.

My mistake, I thought there was an error when McMuller didn't cover first.  The other error was made by Villar earlier.

Astros with three straight 2-out hits...Tucer, Carter and Castro, the last one plates a run.  Carter moves to 3B on throwing error by LFer.  1B and 3B, 2out, and that's it for Lobstein.

Probably a little of both.  "Luck = preparation meeting opportunity" as the sign in the locker room used to read.

It was just meant to be a light commentary about the absurdity of such a mental fuckup not being officially scored as an "error".  And I had PopTarts for breakfast.

Does Ashby really think the DH is taking on a 3-1 pitch, 2-out and a man on, down by a run?

LMac gets a K anyway to end the inning.

at least they won't be swept in the series.

If they take tomorrow, I think that's huge.

I got a nest of cardinals in the tree outside my front window.  There's like eight of them.  I might have to shoot them.

Think he's just a tad bit frustrated with his club? Mike Price got run today before the game even started.
Huh?

I was thinking I totally missed something, which doesn't mean I haven't missed something.  But the Mike Price I saw on google was a former UTEP football coach.

I think he means Bryan Price, the Reds skipper.  Tossed for arguing the lineup card exchange.

Mrs. Hawk likes them.  She thinks they're pretty.  But she's not here, and I have a shotgun.

Yes, lost his job at Alabama for having hookers in his hotel room. Then got hired by UTEP. I still don't know what the hell Mr. Happy is talking about.

Farnsworth is the neck who plays football, not Rocker. Rocker is too busy with Z-28 rallys and Klan meetings to trifle with sports anymore.

I don't know who the hell McMuller is but he was awesome.

When Gattis ends his career he could probably play NT on that semi-pro football team John Rocker is playing DE for.
You mean Farnsworth?

Yeah, but he's usually brought in to face lefties.  You  might want Thatcher available if you need a lefty arm later.  It worked, I just thought it was an odd move by Hinch.

He brought him in to face Gose. Davis PH for Gose.
Often wrong, but never in doubt.

Thatcher makes me nervous too. Not just because he walks lefty batters and/or gives up mammoth blasts nearly every outing; the guy just looks sweaty and extremely uncomfortable out there. Maybe he doesn't believe in all that "poise" on the mound bullshit.

I think he's just some green rookie, like Korea.
