Glad those 2 walks and 2 SBs were nullified by Bregman's grab.

Bregman tries to draw an HBP off his hand via replay, but no dice.
Altuve reaches on a routine E5.
Correa pops to RF.
Yuli doubles down the LF line, Altuve holds at 3b, SS mishandles the relay, runners move up 90'. 9-1
Reddick walks, Hammel's got to be wondering what he has to do to get relieved.
Marwin drills one right at the RF.

End 4, 9-1.

I don’t know that any details about it were released, just that TV had noticed he had shaved.

I’m assuming he was hoping that shaving it would change his luck at the plate....though it didn’t help.
