MRaup · « **Reply #24 on:** June 28, 2019, 08:33:51 pm »

And now Jerry Meals completely loses his strike zone. Miley threw a fastball on the inside corner that caught the top of the zone fully, completely in the strike zone box. Ball.

And that leads to a walk.

Why?

3-0 bases loaded? Better be damned sure you have a pitch you can lift.

He's far more likely to chase than Springer. That's why I'd rather pitch to him. Hopefully he proves me wrong.

Pound for pound, I think these are the best Astros caps they have ever worn. I know many others disagree and that is just fine. But I like these the best and for me it's not really close.
