Does it take two days for Col. Rasmus to get his hair washed?

Yankee announcer John Sterling says Girardi would most likely not make Bentances, Wilson or Shreve available today. So, keep it close going into the late innings, boys.

So, Hinch calls Girardi to apologize for Obie because that is not the way the game should be played.  Did he then ask Girardi to apologize for Gardner?

He's throwing well. It would be nice if they scored some runs for him. If they can't do that, at least get some solid contact.

Or at least make Pineda throw some more pitches so that we can get to the bullpen.

Correa hit a fly to left center.  Both outfielders said "you take it" and it fell between them. Then Gardner, going to pick it up, kicks it to the wall and Correa scores. Basically, a little league HR.

Apologize for playing good, clean hard nosed baseball?  I doubt it.

Well, it wasn't exactly clean.  Even if one gives Gardner the benefit of the doubt that he was cleanly breaking up a DP, which I assume Hinch does, then he sure as shit needs to be giving fatass an earful on why the neighborhood rule applies.

Correa hit a high fly should-have-been-easy-out to LCF, and Gardner and the LF played I-got-it-I-got-it-you-take-it and it fell in between them. Then Gardner kicked the ball (or something) while trying to retrieve it and it went to the fence. Correa was running pretty hard from the start and made it home fairly easily.

In my opinion, there's a line and Gardner might not have crossed it but he had one leg over it with his cleats up like that.

No, you're searching for ways to vilify Gardner for playing good baseball, most likely because you're really embarrassed by Oberholzter's behavior. You should be.

Is that the same noodle-arm that was out in LF for the Yankees last night? That throw was embarrassing.

I think so. The one last night with Carter scoring was the worst. Carter was two steps from 3B when he fielded it in shallow LF and it bounced like four times and wasn't even close.

Springer takes a cookie right down the center to end the 8th. Man he is lost.

I know he is strong and capable of hitting homers but I think he's better when he is just trying to get on base. And with Correa behind him that is what he should always focus on.

Gregerson in to try to nail it down. Gets the first out 4-1.

Yep. He's back to swinging from the heels trying to murder everything.

Gregerson with a 1-2-3 9th to nail it down. Astros split the series.

McHugh was fantastic today.

I don't think that Rasmus was in the dugout today. I didn't see him after the game and I would think that Hinch  would have used him to replace Tucker in the eighth.

I wonder if they shouldn't mold him into a kind of Rickey Henderson, power/speed, leadoff type without the doucheyness?

If only the Astros had a HoF leadoff hitter with power hanging around the organization  , , ,
