I missed the pre-game. Has anybody heard any news about Yuli and/or Correa?

Who? Don’t recall the name.

Altuve 2-run homer. Brantley solo. 9-0.

I surprised Fiers came in for batting practice.  What time does the game start?

The Astros have taken some very long batting practices the last couple days.

Hopefully Fiers' short outing will pay dividends for the Astros in the rest of the series, too.

astrojo says “someone fix Brantley”: two hits and a walkoff homer.

astrojo says “someone fix Alvarez”: 4-6, 6 RBI; 2 homers thus far

Who is doing the fixing? Good job, astrojo.

I like that Springer led off the 1st, 2nd and 3rd innings. That seems like good strategy.

I know is a 15-run lead, but it still irritates me that Kalas is already talking about this win. It’s just wrong.

He says “if” most of the time. 15-run lead against a AAA lineup is pretty safe.

Magic number for division is now 8.

Yankees and Boston played again (makeup?); NY won 5-0.

NY opens a series with Detroit tmw.

Well rested Wade Miley tmw night.

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.

Not taunting or bragging, just in awe.  Last 2 games:

36 runs on 39 hits vs. 1 run on 4 hits

9 BB, 10 Ks vs 1 BB, 27 Ks

46 baserunners vs 5

21 XBH vs 2

Over 9 innings b/t Sunday and Monday, the Stros outscored 26 of 32 NFL teams.

Roark has a been a really good pickup for the A's.  Miley needs to bring his A-game.

What a great interview with Chirinos.

It was. Then we get Alvarez and the odd Greinke to top it off.

After they turned a double-play to end the top of the 5th (I think), everybody was trotting off the field but Greinke kind of stood there looking around with a puzzled look on his face. Maybe he just lost track of the number of outs, but the look was as if he had just been teleported onto the field and didn't understand where he was.

Up and down the M1 in some luminous yo-yo toy
But the future has to change - and to change I've got to destroy
Oh look out Lennon here I come - land ahoy-hoy-hoy

Not used to an inning being over so soon. He threw 5 pitches or so? I noticed it too.

First loss in 21 starts for Fiers. The Astros should beat up on Seattle, Baltimore, etc. but Oakland is not chopped liver. I think that the Astros are in for a fight in the next three games.

I want more, of course, but a split is big for us.
