This shitty offense is being no hit by a scrub. I can’t remember such a punchless stretch. If it weren’t for two lucky swings in SF the Astros might have been in second place after tonight.

From Daren Willman:

Kyle Tucker's flyout was hit 103 MPH with a 32 degree launch similar batted balls are home runs 79% of the time

Nolan Arenado's homer was hit 95 MPH at a 26 degree launch angle similar batted balls are home runs 7% of the time.

Fuck. Two on, one out...two pitches later (neither strikes), inning over.

Automatic.

Really Tucker?

You really want to go after a first pitch breaking ball?

Gattis too. Just throw two breaking balls in the dirt...voila.

That’s a line from Archer. After Archer and Pam have sex:

Archer: Wow, where did you learn that?
Pam: You know I grew up on a farm, right?
Archer: I’m really hoping those two aren’t related in any way.

I don't remember those two having sex. Not surprised though.

Everyone has had sex with everyone on that show.

The Rockies don’t miss hanging sliders. 4-1

The astros do. Never fear, I'll be at the game tomorrow. Let me know if you see me in the crowd.

Fucking a.

It was insurmountable at 2-1.

4-1 is poor sportsmanship.

Pathetic.

"This is what the Astros are looking for, to get into that pen."

Yes Kevin. Down 3 in the 8th.

Got 'em where they want 'em.

Things got dark last year around this time but I never really panicked (a big lead helped) but this year feels different. I don’t like what I’m seeing from the offense even a little bit.

Kemp with an uncharacteristic shitty AB.

There is a high probability that the Astros will go the entire month of August without a home win.

Hard to like what you see when they aren’t working counts. Gattis and Tucker swinging at the first pitch with runners on first and second in the 7th is unacceptable from major league hitters.

Maybe Fuckenfelder can talk more about who’s going to get the second wild card.

He can't even tell what's a run and what's a hit on the linescore.

Marisnick likely makes that play in center. Not that it’ll matter.

Current team troubles aside, Harris has been consistently disappointing.

Well they are in line to finish the night without one from July 15-August 14, one full calendar month.
