6 run lead in the 8th don’t be dicking around on the corners and start walking people. Trade a homer for 3 outs. Let’s score 3 in the 9th and crush their spirit more. 

Nailed it

Y’all need to be nicer to Abreu. He’s going to hit like 120 or 130 ops between coming off the injured list and the end of the year. His back was fucked up and now it’s not. Pretty obvious with the night and day difference between bay speed, being able to pull the ball, all that stuff. Just flush the first two months of the season and he’s been fine since then. 
he’s still only our 8th best bat and Peña is still only our 9th best bat of Dusty ever gives us the death lineup, but that makes everyone absorb average if we decide to do it. 

good timing

Dumb dusty must have got lucky with the lineup tonight !

Well, when the "RBI Machine" starts RBI-ing, we might be on to something.

Idk why but their park seems so massive to me, I’m amazed any time anyone hits one out.

Needless to say, I’ve been like this all series

Chas says remember me

[Mitch Hedberg 2090]

All Chas does is hit. Good thing he doesn’t sulk. Stays positive. Gamer. 

[UTexasFight 9517]

Gotten to the point where I’m wondering how we got the trash cans last globe life security. I have no other way to explain this.

Sparks as the pitch is being released  “Graveman is a solid reliever.”  Whack 

"Solid" as in "solid contact." 

[Scraps 13570]

Hey i said Abreu would get 130 rbi before the season.....only needs like 56 more in a month.


I believe

JV gets you the 7th.

Neris, Abreu or Montero the 8th

and Pressly the 9th, regardless the score, since he hasn’t pitched in a week and off day tomorrow?

Forgot about Graveman, but yep

[Make em eat Taco Bell 1549]

play all 162 on the road next year. 

[kevwun 15811]

Is that the 2nd most runs the Astros have ever scored in a 3 games series or did they tie it?

[mrhorn 1383]

1 off the record

Why not?

[WBT 20643]

The fuck?  12-3 game and the home plate ump doesn't ring up Maldy on an obvious strike.  Guess he's not ready to go home.

Just now, UTexasFight said:

Why not?

Can't abuse relievers like that these days

[UTexasFight 9517]

I like that Altuve has a designated kessinger when we play the Rangers

Rangers announcers are pretty entertaining if you have their channel.

Listening to rangers  postgame driving home from the game last night and the call in guy says at one point “well, you’ve hit bottom. How do you respond?”

 

and me thinking: “uhhh, pretty sure  you still have one more game in this series”

Edited September 7, 2023 by UTexasFight

[runthebone 8024]

That was a good game also.

[dr99 560]

Crane and Bagwell after Abreu had 7 rbi night

[UTexasFight 9517]

What’s our record for # of guys with 20 HRs in a season? Wasn’t it the 2017 or 2019 team?

McCormick made it #5 tonight.

Altuve with 15, Abreu with 14 could get us to 7 if they stay hot.

 

Edited September 7, 2023 by UTexasFight
Yeah, 2019 we had 7 guys get there
