Doors are closing on the plane in 5 minutes. Hoping to hear Miley’s first batter.

[Col. Sphinx Drummond]

Three up, three down in the top of the first.

First batter was good. Three pitches and got a ground out.

[HudsonHawk]

Next few batters not so much. 2-0 Angels

[Astros Fan in Big D]

From 0-2 to a 2 run double.

[HudsonHawk]

Miley struggles but gets out of the first. 2-0 Angels after one

[HudsonHawk]

3-0 Angels

[austro]

Jose Urquidy, come on down!

[Astros Fan in Big D]

2 out infield single,  balk,  walk.

1.2 IP, 49 freaking pitches.

[HudsonHawk]

Some bad luck this game, and Aledmys Diaz has been Miley's worst enemy, but Miley is not looking good.

[Astros Fan in Big D]

Toro fielded that a few feet from 3B.

If he sprinted across the infield could he have reached first before Pujols?

Tucker didn't seem to be in too big of a hurry to get Goodwin's ball in quickly.

Yes, and he could have stopped to tie his laces on the way.

[HudsonHawk]

Tucker didn't seem to be in too big of a hurry to get Goodwin's ball in quickly.

Tucker is in LF. Brantley fielded Goodwin's hit.

[Astros Fan in Big D]

Tucker is in LF. Brantley fielded Goodwin's hit.

Thanks..

[HudsonHawk]

Astros get their first hit, an infield single by Straw, but they're appear pretty disinterested to this point.

[Aussie Astro]

You would think they would look a little more threatening against a 6+ era guy... still, early days.

[Astros Fan in Big D]

Scoreless 3rd for Miley.

He's at 79 pitches.

[Texifornia]

Scoreless 3rd for Miley.

At this point, that's got to feel like a victory.

[HudsonHawk]

Tucker!

3-1

[Astros Fan in Big D]

Nice to see him make up for that ball that wasn't hit to him.

[Texifornia]

T-BOMB!

[Texifornia]

Pere Abraham has some improvement to make before he's a candidate to crack any Major League starting lineup.

[Aussie Astro]

Peacock throwing in the pen.

[Astros Fan in Big D]

Nice inning from Miley.

And a nice grab by Mayfield on that soft looper.

[Texifornia]

Jack Didfield!

[Astros Fan in Big D]

Super Jack jack!

[Aussie Astro]

Jack Didfield!

He hit too.

[Texifornia]

Jack Didhit too!

Mayfield with a two run homer.

[Texifornia]

After giving up a Tucker Tater (tm) last inning and a two run Jack Jack so far this inning, Barria is gone.

[homer]

Doors are closing on the plane in 5 minutes. Hoping to hear Miley’s first batter.

I have been consistently able to stream mlb.tv on the airplane WiFi this season.

[Texifornia]

Peacock with an 8 pitch inning.

[chuck]

Hopefully if you're on a plane it allows or denies you access to a game depending on if you're flying over a given team's airspace.

[homer]

Hopefully if you're on a plane it allows or denies you access to a game depending on if you're flying over a given team's airspace.

Absolutely. The mlb.tv app utilizes the location function and I have to use the ‘in market streaming’ option when flying out of Texas because mlb.tv is blacked out.

If the stream is started it doesn’t check again, so i’m good on the way in tonight with mlb.tv.

[Texifornia]

George Springer pinch hitting for Mayfield with the bases drunk and one out in the eighth.

...aaaaaand gidp.

[Aussie Astro]

Now would be a nice time to get a run.

[Texifornia]

Tied at 3 into the bottom of the ninth.

[Texifornia]

2 outs in the top of the 10th:

Reddick singles, he's 4 for 5 tonight;
Pere Abraham walks;
Stubbs Ks swinging

sigh

To the bottom of the 10 tied at 3.

[Texifornia]

FWIW the bully has looked good tonight.

Devo in for the 10th.

[Texifornia]

Devo gives up  walk but nothing else.

I can stay awake for the top of the 11th, but not beyond.

[Texifornia]

Astros juice the bases with one out and get bupkiss.

3-3 bottom of 11 and I'm in the tank...

[Aussie Astro]

Top of the 12th - Lead of double leads to loaded bases... leads to no fuckin runs.

Still 3 - 3

[chuck]

Kyle Tucker is fucking brutal.

[Aussie Astro]

Walk the lead off guy and watch him score the winning run, no surprise there.

[Aussie Astro]

Kyle Tucker is fucking brutal.

Not his fault, he has a hole in his glove.

[Astros Fan in Big D]

Just saw the replay.

Leadoff walk,  stolen base (initially called out, replay overturned; for some reason he didn't slide), strikeout, runner moved to third, winning run scores on a fielding error by Tucker at 1st.

Oh well.

ETA: runner moved on a 4-3 grounder.  Winning run scored with 2 outs.

Oh well.

We had enough chances, it felt like we snatched a loss out of the jaws of victory.

[Snuffy]

Kyle Tucker is fucking brutal.

Sure was.  But is that OJT for him @ 1st base?  (11 games in the minors and 4 (to date) in the ML.)
Can't imagine having to react to a screaming line drive on the infield compared to a line drive in the OF.
