I would have put Tucker, Marisnick and Rasmus in the outfield, but I guess we need Gattis' bat.

Rasmus will play some LF today too, since he'll get all balls in the gap.

Might run it through the supercomputer later, but I'll stand by that analysis for now.

I'm only listening and trying to work at the same time, so pbp will be slow and haphazard.

Altuve walks to be the first Astro on base.

MRaup · « **Reply #15 on:** August 12, 2015, 03:36:50 pm »

So Altuve walks on 5 pitches, then Tucker just takes a horrible swing at a pitch he can't do a damn thing with on the first pitch. BRILLIANT BASEBALL.

subnuclear · « **Reply #16 on:** August 12, 2015, 03:39:41 pm »

Correa with a hit. Altuve to 2nd. 1 out.

BizidyDizidy · « **Reply #17 on:** August 12, 2015, 03:46:14 pm »

Rasmus walks, bases juiced for Gattis.

HudsonHawk · « **Reply #23 on:** August 12, 2015, 04:00:55 pm »

Off the bat I thought Altuve had one. That ball just died.

Co-workers forcing me to go drink with them, so I'm out.

Feldman's hit was to LF. Don't want anyone thinking he actually got around on one.

HudsonHawk · « **Reply #28 on:** August 12, 2015, 04:08:15 pm »

B5:

Blanco with a lazy fly ball to LCF, Gattis has no interest whatsoever in trying to go catch it, so it lands short of the track for a double as Colby has to go get it
Adriana grounds out 4-3, Blanco to 3B
Heston, with the infield in, strikes out swinging
Maxwell flies out F9

Still no score after 5

HudsonHawk · « **Reply #31 on:** August 12, 2015, 04:16:51 pm »

T6:

Tucker walks
Correa strikes out looking, Tucker running on the pitch, thought it was ball four, so he stops running and is tagged out 10 feet from 2B
Lowrie grounds out 4-3

So Heston, after walking the lead off hitter and going 3-2 on the next guy, gets three outs on the next two pitches.

hostros7 · « **Reply #32 on:** August 12, 2015, 04:17:33 pm »

Tucker fucked up, but correa has to be swinging at the borderline pitches with 2 strikes and the runner in motion.

It wasn't even borderline. That ball was all strike.

Duffy singles to LF
Posey grounds into 4-6-3 double play
Pence strikes out swinging.

Still no score.

He either hits the shit out of the ball or hits a really shitty ball.

Nice at-bat by Castro.

MRaup · « **Reply #43 on:** August 12, 2015, 04:44:43 pm »

I wish they'd show on a ballpark map where the field mic is located. I'd like to hire someone to find the idiot that is yelling about EVERY. SINGLE. PITCH. and beat him until he shuts up.

HudsonHawk · « **Reply #44 on:** August 12, 2015, 04:45:28 pm »

T7:

Rasmus homers to RF
Gattis gets. 3-2 meatball and pops it up to a at
Valbuena walks on four pitches, none of them close

That's it for Heston...Oshich in

Castro walks

Oshich out, Kontos in

Gomez, pinch hitting for Feldman, flies out F9
Altuve, fouls off two sliders 2-feet off the plate, works the count full, and grounds out 6-3

But the Astros grab a 1-0 lead on the Colby Jack.

NeilT · « **Reply #45 on:** August 12, 2015, 04:47:09 pm »

Now all they have to do is shut out the Giants!

B7:

Perez on the bump, Gomez stays in the game in CF, Colby moves to RF and Tucker to LF

Belt carved up on strikes
Crawford doubles off the RF wall
Blanco flies out F7

That's it for Perez. Harris in the game

Adrianza grounds out 4-3

After seven...1-0 Astros.

Texifornia · « **Reply #49 on:** August 12, 2015, 05:11:31 pm »

Iwakuma just finished a No-No for Seattle against the O's. 3-0

T8:

Tucker singles to RF
Correa grounds into 6-4-3 twin killing
Lowrie homers to RF

Double switch for the Giants, Afelt in to pitch and in Adrianza's spot, Lopez in to play 2B and will hit in the 9 spot

Rasmus strikes out looking

Middle of the 8th, 2-0.

HudsonHawk · « **Reply #53 on:** August 12, 2015, 05:20:45 pm »

To the 9th...Astros up 2-0

MRaup · « **Reply #54 on:** August 12, 2015, 05:28:25 pm »

Holy fuck. Little League shinner called on Castro there.

NeilT · « **Reply #55 on:** August 12, 2015, 05:30:05 pm »

They're bringing in a pitcher to pitch to Marisnick?

HudsonHawk · « **Reply #56 on:** August 12, 2015, 05:33:13 pm »

T9:

Marwin, pinch hitting for Neshek. taps the first pitch back to the mound 1-3
Carter, pinch hitting for Valbuena, walks
Castro strikes out on ball five

Another pitching change for the Giants...apparently V.I. Lenin pitches for the Giants

With Marisnick at the plate, Carter thrown out trying to steal 2B.

To the bottom...Gregerson will try to nail down the 2-0 lead.
