Bottom 3.

A sac fly in the 1st and a rocket from Jake leading off the 3rd have Astros up 2-0.

Sigh.

Consecutive hits from Josh (hitting in the leadoff spot tonight) and Bregman followed by a gidp by Brantley, a walk by Correa, and a foul pop by Yuli.

A couple of command issues that inning, but man for the most part he's been killing those guys with sliders. Inside, outside, they don't know what's coming.

Jake got the edge of the zone dotted 3 times after that 3-0 count.

Strike one might have been a ball, but not on a 3-0 count. The other two were great pitches.

Great stop by Kemp. Too bad it was against a fast guy.

Astros Fan in Big D · « **Reply #13 on:** May 20, 2019, 08:38:08 pm »

Great stop by Kemp.

Good speed from the runner beat the throw, but Anderson had to stop at 2nd.

Given how a lack of sight is likely to adversely affect the foraging ability of a squirrel and therefore have implications for total calories consumed, this analogy may not be apt for Tyler White.

Pitched around a hit batsman and that IF single.

9 Ks, 90 pitches thru 5 for Brad.

Reddick's 8-8 run against LHP ends with a ripped line drive to 3rd

He's been great against LHP at least since early last year. I was at a game in LAA last year and they brought in a lefty to face Reddick with runners and I told all the Angels fans with me that Reddick eats lefties for lunch with the commensurate razzing. Reddick put it into the right field bleachers and made me look good.

Devo with a good inning.

Nice!

Did you see Reddick break the bat afterwards?

"Snapped the streak, snapped the bat."

TK asked did he expect to go 9 for 9 against lefties?

Then they cut to the dugout and Josh was smiling too. Apparently he heard from his teammates.

I hope he eats with his left hand.

Because that right one dispenses pure filth.

Brantley doubles into the nook in left.

He briefly considers smiling then thinks better of it.

Lefty · « **Reply #27 on:** May 20, 2019, 09:48:51 pm »

Luhnow on the clock for 1 more starter.

Texifornia · « **Reply #28 on:** May 20, 2019, 09:52:23 pm »

That's how to respond to a broken winning streak: start the next one.

Nice W.

McTaggart pointed out CWS never got a runner to 3rd.

If they wound up with a starter and moved Peacock to the pen, this bullpen would be outstanding.
