Astros @ Rays, June 28, 2018
« on: June 28, 2018, 06:34:44 pm »
Nothing for either club in the 1st
The rules of distinction were thrown out with the baseball cap.  It does not lend itself to protocol.  It is found today on youth in homes, classrooms, even in fine restaurants.  Regardless of its other consequences, this is a breach against civility.  A civilized man should avoid this mania.

Didn't enjoy the K, but did enjoy Gattis having a conversation with himself after missing that 3rd strike.

Just an FYI...Dwight Gooden is not from St. Pete. He’s from Tampa and went to the same high school as Sheffield.  Gooden is actually Sheffield’s uncle.

And no one is from Tampa Bay. Unless you’re a fish.

Dear Mr. Altuve:

Please find forthwith the invoice for the TV broken by the remote hurled at it when you got your ass picked off with runners on the corners.

Six hits, three walks, and a hit batsman yield one run.

Inefficient.

Inefficient.

Or another way to look at it is five hits, three walks, and a hit batsmen yields zero runs.

Yeah, it was. Also a good decision by Hinch to leave him in against the guy who who goes after every breaking ball in the dirt.  A good matchup for Lance.

This is a disappointing development. I blame Kalas and his blathering about the K/9 record.

Wow, did you just see that stat? Every lineup spot has at least 40 RBI for the year (maybe 43, it went away before I could digest all of it). That seems fairly amazing.

Nine spot had 33. All others over 40.

I appreciated the Rays organizations hospitality last year, but the offense might feel too at home there if tonight is an indication.

Devo and Rondon come thru, and Lance was stellar.

And Jake provides the only run.   He's contributing.
