Gurriel hits a line drive that misses the foul pole by about 1 millimeter.  Then punches out.

I suppose Colon has not been around long enough to have faced Correa twice in the same game.

They had an Astros produced show with him on Root shortly after the vote. My wife thought he needed lots of help- however, knowing that he is not the polished speaker that Biggio made himself into, I took what he said for what it was... and i found it highly personal and insightful. I fully expect the same raw emotion and personal testimony, with some modest polish, during his induction speech.

He was worn out having to pitch around Correa's "defense" and Hinch's "strategy".

It got better as it went along. He seemed to respect Blum. His (non)answers early in the conversation about the HOF put me off a little.  Overdid the aw-shucks stuff but I suspect he really isn't comfortable with the ceremonial part of the induction. I hope he makes a good speech there.
