T1:

Reddick doubles to LCF
Aoki with an infield single off of Kluber's glove, Reddick to 3B
Correa strikes out swinging on three pitches
McCann walks on four pitches, Aoki to 2B
Gattis takes a meatball for strike one, takes a meatball for strike two, whiffs at a curveball at his ankles
Gurriel...3-0...takes a meatball for strike one, whiffs at ball four at his ankles, helmet falls off, flies out at the top of the wall in RCF

Horrible

No score.

I disagree. I am watching the Tribe feed, and I thought it clear that Almonte caught the ball.

I can understand taking the first slider on the inside half, but then when he throws it again right in the middle of the damn plate....

McCann singles to RF, Correa to 3B...too hard right at RFer for Correa to score
Gattis singles to LF, Correa scores, McCann to 2B
Gurriel pops out F3 in foul ground
Bregman with a flair double over 1B...McCann scores, Gattis to 3B
Marwin walks on four pitches...no surprise there
Kemp...quickly down 0-2...takes strike three

Astros leave the bases loaded...again, but do managed to plate a pair...lead 3-1

B3:

Gomes...the fucking number nine hitter who's not hitting his fucking weight...draws a leadoff walk
Santana grounds into FC, Gomes out 4-3, Marwin bobbled it, so no chance to turn two
Santana swipes 2B
Lindor...3-0...3-1...grounds out 3U, Santana to 3B
Brantley grounds to 2B, Marwin fields it, trips over the dirt, but manages to bounce it to 1B to end the inning

After three...3-1 Astros

Misjudged it. Went back to the track, then had to run in, and then just boxed the catch.

Impossible. It's a simple game:throw the ball, hit the ball, catch the ball. If I can see in my mind's eye what's supposed to happen, why can't they simply make it happen? I demand satisfaction!

Only one quarterback. He went second. The Bears swapped spots with the 49ers and gave up a third, a fourth, a sixth, another third for a guy who sat for two years behind someone you've never heard of and has a total of 13 starts.

So, as I was saying, quarterbacks have become extremely expensive.

In addition to the fact that they just gave Mike Glennon $19M.

Altuve reaches into the other batters box and trickles a single up the middle

Lots of little things there. Altuve gets thrown out. Beltran doesn't go for second, meaning Reddick can't try for home. Correa shits the bed. McCann swings at one above his eyes.

Let's try getting Springer and Altuve back in the lineup.

I'm OK with Altuve getting thrown out.  You're trying to get into scoring position, and you've got a great base stealer on first base.  You can't count on multiple hits.  You're on the road, trying to manufacture a run.  It was the perfect pitch to thrown on.  Shit happens. 

What the fuck Beltran was doing on 1B is a movie mystery of the week.

And Correa...this game was his season so far wrapped up in a handful of at bats.

Interesting. I'm not sure his game translates to the pros, but maybe it does. Everybody who's ever been around him swears by his character and leadership. And having those other guys picked in front of him will probably give him extra motivation. It's possible he's another Russell Wilson. And it's possible he doesn't pan out at all.

That's terrible logic, and you know it.  Just because Brock Osweiler was hammered dog shit doesn't mean Watson will necessarily be good.

Run out and buy your Watson jersey tomorrow. This is a totally inept and incompetent organization. Watson would have been a reach at 25. Paying the Browns to take a quarterback that sucked was bad enough. Little did I know it would get worse.

Seriously, do you really believe that success of a college team is predictive of NFL success for an individual quarterback?

Yes they did.  That doesn't mean that Watson is that guy.  Not being Brock Osweiler ain't exactly a feather in your QB cap.  Watson may be the guy, he may not.  I personally am not a fan.

11 hits and 4 walks...that's 15 baserunners to score 3 runs.  Take away Marwin's HR and the Astros needed 7 base runners to push one across the plate.
