Maeda threw some very mediocre sliders to Yuli but nothing came of them.

Where did Springer’s foul ball land? He crushed one into the valley somewhere.

Lance lucks out that Taylor’s launch angle on that hanging breaking ball was low enough to stay in the park.

Even if what is wrong with LMJ is minor, I would expect him to hit the 10 day to make room for Osuna tomorrow.

McTag has a gif showing him pointing to his upper forearm.

ETA not McTag but was retweeted  by Boutwell.

If Lance has to go on the DL, it might make sense to let Peacock start and keep McHugh in his role as a dominant late-inning reliever.

Astros tack one on! Nice job by white to elevate a low pitch and give it a shot of landing, which somehow it did in front of Taylor in center.

That's close at 1B . . .

And he's out!

That's the longest 1-3 throw after a K I've ever seen.

Kalas/Blum are enjoying this game. Blum wants gattis to get another at-bat. I'm good with that.

No double for Springer showing, not even a hit.  A double & RBI are now showing.

For those not watching:
Springer hits a soft liner toward first.  It bounces off the bag and kicks low thru the wicket of Bellinger.

Camera cuts to Springer standing on second,  huge smile, pointing into the dugout.

Pitching change,  back from break they show Springer looking up and seeing that an error was charged,  and he's non-plussed as he protests verbally and with body language.  Finally they change it back and he's all smiles again.

If Lance has to go on the DL, it might make sense to let Peacock start and keep McHugh in his role as a dominant late-inning reliever.

Lot of off days coming up - may be able to manage without another starter.

Good.

I've hated the Dodgers since 1980.

That's about when I started disliking them. Prior to that I kinda did like them. I had a neighbor that played for them a little while. I got to see him start a game at SS in the dome one Sunday.
