2022 Houston Astros Thread

[Wulaw Horn 18983]

We are now 1 game over 500 for the history of the franchise. Let’s beat Ohtani and stay there for the rest of my lifetime. I’m a man. I’m 44. 

[Storm the Field 5273]

89-49. 40 over .500 for the first time this season.

Not a great game by any means, but LMJ looked great and the offense (i. e. Chas) did just enough.

[Js1 85115]

and Yankees lose right after 

[runthebone 7932]

Trout is having an incredible week, homering ok 5 straight games.  Angels are 2-3.

The boy is wearing his Astros jersey as we're shopping for his stuff for his dorm room in Glasgow. Dude comes up to him in stout Glaswegian accent: "I love your jersey. I'm sick of fooking Yankees jerseys." We high five.

Fuck the Yankees.

[Gut Wagon 8053]

Glad celebrating Derek Jeter's HOF induction turned out just as well for the Yankees as our DH with them on Derek Jeter Day did a few years ago. May "The Captain" go down with the ship.

I’m taking the kids to tonight’s game.  Every year we go to a regular season game, the Astros get to the World Series.

You’re welcome.

You’re going to work this UK trip into every post for the next three months aren’t you, much like last year’s Germany trip?

The commentary will be douchetastic.

[runthebone 7932]

Meat.

[runthebone 7932]

Urquidy is all over the place.

[Gut Wagon 8053]

Let's get several right here. 

[Fudge Nuggets 19151]

Tucker looked like he was running in slow motion going down the line. Bad effort on Tucker bobble head night. 

[Gut Wagon 8053]

Jose not fooling anyone yet. 

[Fudge Nuggets 19151]

It’s Max fucking Stassi. Throw strikes 

[TonyTexas 10482]

Glad there’s a lot of football on. Don’t like the looks of this one

[Fudge Nuggets 19151]

Trout knocked the shit out of that one.   The sound off the bat was something else. 

[Slacks 6791]

I have an idea... Don't send two down the middle on Trout.

[Fudge Nuggets 19151]

We might get 10-run ruled tonight. 

[Storm the Field 5273]

6 straight games with a Trout dong.

[Fudge Nuggets 19151]

Angels base runners are stupid.

Ohtani just  pulled 

[Fudge Nuggets 19151]

Ohtani couldn’t go through the warm ups. 
 

[tx 3 putt 76414]

 

[Guadaloopy 10926]

Huge break.  Sucks for him.  Take advantage, boys.  

[Smax 3800]

Wtf are these announcers talking about.. judge keeps hitting hrs and Yankees keep winning. Uhh the Yankees havent been winning,.God damn I hate national announcers

[Smax 3800]

And now they just said stats aren't everything, there's got to be an eyeball test..
Wtf STFU

[Guadaloopy 10926]

I hate watching our guys get weak contact off this wiffle ball pitcher.  

[Limp Brisket 546]

What a shitty day.  

[tx 3 putt 76414]

Chad going to get it going here

I just want to say something here. 

See, one loss in the baseball regular season means little.

But to the extent that this is going to rub salt into the wounds Aggies are already suffering today, to give them no respite, nowhere else to look for sports fan joy, I almost want the team to tank just to increase the aggy misery index that much more.

I didn't see a single piece of aggy gear in Minute Maid Park the entire night.  May have been a first.

well, presumably they were in collie station, watching their asses get whoop!ed by... checks notes... ahh yes, perennial superpower Appalachian State.

 

 

 

 

...I know you knew that already. And I knew that already. I just like saying it again.

[UTexasFight 9380]

I finally watched Facing Nolan tonight instead of the game

looks like a wise choice

[Fudge Nuggets 19151]

Win the series tomorrow.
