Hope that's a slumpbuster for Altuve, man did he crank that one.

WVastro · « **Reply #2 on:** September 05, 2016, 06:38:40 pm »

Frito pie consumed.

Aussie Astro · « **Reply #3 on:** September 05, 2016, 06:42:21 pm »

How is that not an error in CF?

Col. Sphinx Drummond · « **Reply #4 on:** September 05, 2016, 06:51:21 pm »

Clevinger done after 1 2/3 innings. Jeff Manship on the hill now. runners on 1st and 2nd.

Col. Sphinx Drummond · « **Reply #5 on:** September 05, 2016, 07:04:27 pm »

Fiers is trying hard to get Cleveland to score.

Glad he barely got out of it though.

Col. Sphinx Drummond · « **Reply #7 on:** September 05, 2016, 07:07:33 pm »

Fiers somehow escapes the second without surrendering any runs.

MrKnuckleball · « **Reply #8 on:** September 05, 2016, 07:11:08 pm »

BREGMAN

BREGMAN

He has been such a bonus. What a great pick by Luhnow et al.

Tom Servo · « **Reply #10 on:** September 05, 2016, 07:18:07 pm »

I think we're all happy Bregman stayed put at the trade deadline.

MrKnuckleball · « **Reply #11 on:** September 05, 2016, 07:18:44 pm »

That kid generates some thump with that short swing.

Nate Colbert · « **Reply #12 on:** September 05, 2016, 07:19:48 pm »

I believe the over/under on the number of pitchers to be used in this game is 11.

I will take the under, I expect (hope) they want get home sometime tonight.

Col. Sphinx Drummond · « **Reply #14 on:** September 05, 2016, 07:25:48 pm »

nothing wrong with Teoscar's arm there.

I doubt any of the critics noticed.

Lindor just demonstrated an good argument for the head first slide.

Fiers picking up his team mates. Pretty impressive.

I think everything was in question: worse than a geriatric Reggie Jackson with a noodle arm who always overthrows everything.

MrKnuckleball · « **Reply #20 on:** September 05, 2016, 07:52:36 pm »

Beautiful play by Correa both times.

hostros7 · « **Reply #21 on:** September 05, 2016, 07:52:58 pm »

Correa as a shortstop. . . es ok.

Great to see Bregman busting down the line. Most guys still would have been thrown out there even with the muff by Kipnis.

Napoli killed that one.

Col. Sphinx Drummond · « **Reply #24 on:** September 05, 2016, 08:25:25 pm »

Inning six, two out, runners at the corners, pitching change, Jake at the plate.

Col. Sphinx Drummond · « **Reply #25 on:** September 05, 2016, 08:27:36 pm »

Jake watches strike three go by.

Col. Sphinx Drummond · « **Reply #26 on:** September 05, 2016, 08:39:41 pm »

The combination of Sipp and Neshek get the Astros through the 6th without giving up any more runs.

Col. Sphinx Drummond · « **Reply #27 on:** September 05, 2016, 08:47:53 pm »

One out, Springer at third, Altuve at first, Correra at the plate.

MrKnuckleball · « **Reply #28 on:** September 05, 2016, 08:48:54 pm »

Correa walks

Col. Sphinx Drummond · « **Reply #29 on:** September 05, 2016, 08:49:58 pm »

Correa draws a one out walk to load the bases for Yuli.

hostros7 · « **Reply #30 on:** September 05, 2016, 08:50:37 pm »

Springer with a ninja slide for an insurance run!

Way to hustle out of the box Colby!

Col. Sphinx Drummond · « **Reply #36 on:** September 05, 2016, 08:58:00 pm »

Rasmus with an infield single that scores Correa, it's now 6-2 in the 7th. Two out, Indians make a pitching change.

Col. Sphinx Drummond · « **Reply #37 on:** September 05, 2016, 09:02:29 pm »

Teoscar strikes out to end the inning.

hostros7 · « **Reply #38 on:** September 05, 2016, 09:04:29 pm »

Kipnis hasn't had a stellar defensive game.

Feliz in for the Astros. Those three runs in the 7th were very good.

Col. Sphinx Drummond · « **Reply #41 on:** September 05, 2016, 09:12:40 pm »

That's the Feliz like to see. 1-2-3 inning with 2 Ks.

Should be an oddsmaker. I would've taken the under.

Marwin with the bases loaded and two outs.

WVastro · « **Reply #48 on:** September 05, 2016, 09:29:07 pm »

I would have loved to see Yuli get a shot there... But I'm not ever going to be a manager and Marwin is a badass...

oh well.

Col. Sphinx Drummond · « **Reply #49 on:** September 05, 2016, 09:29:39 pm »

shit... on to the bottom of the 8th. Astros lead 6-2

Sorry to quote myself but fuck ashby. It would have been nice to know that Marwin was a defensive sub a half inning before. Maybe he said it and I wasn't listening (typical with ashby). Either way fuck ashby.

What's Octavio Dotel doing these days? I feel like if Feliz would just rear back and fling it like Dotel did he'd be unstoppable.

Octavio Dotel: attitude coach.
