Solid W, let’s game 2 tomorrow 

[Js1 85321]

Huh so we can win at home?

[Mo Horn 8833]

Nice to get good Pressley today

[David Dennison 18856]

Never in doubt.

[YChang 3443]

Good Pressly

[tx 3 putt 76933]

10 more to go

[Celery Man 20943]

Needed that.

[rvm96 1643]

That's my closer!

[runthebone 7981]

97 when he needed it.

Good win, Astros.

[Slacks 6819]

Champs win. 

Let's not be Bitches. 

[WBT 20564]

Nice win.  Take command tomorrow

[PenelopeWitherspoon 19101]

Thank goodness.  Sports gods took pity after the Longhorn loss.  Aggy loses and Astros win.  2 of 3 isn’t horrible.

[Overlord 366]

I’ll take it. 

Great job JV. Great job Pressly. 

Shake it off mad dog Neris. You’re still good with me. 

[Macklemore 2876]

ASTROS WIN!! Salvaged at least 1 W for the day.

[Gut Wagon 8065]

I've been in knots since kickoff in Dallas. Thrilled to salvage what we could today. Tip of the cap to aggy for helping. 

[TexArcher 37774]

Nice win, boys.

10 more.

[TonyTexas 10510]

I'm still distraught

[Overlord 366]

What happened to Frank Thomas? Did he finally get fired for selling snake oil?

[UTexasFight 9432]

That’s about as good of a game 1 as you can ask for, other than the 7th inning hiccup from Neris

 

score early and often tomorrow and let’s have a yawner

Nerris gifted them 4 runs  and we still won

You mean Yainer?

[Overlord 366]

I’m not completely sure, but I’m guessing they’re not chanting “We want Houston” in Minneapolis anymore. 

[UTexasFight 9432]

Every starter with a hit…except the pitcher’s spot 

[henrygandorf 29190]

nice win.  i know they hit two bombs in the 7th, but it starts with neris hitting a guy like a moron.  no more of that shit please.  they asked jeter if it helps, if it means something that they put up a fight to build on for tomorrow, he's like, "lol no, a loss is a loss, tomorrow is a new game."  no shit, glad he actually said it.  this isn't school, nobody here to learn.

and if we're to believe that javier has actually "figured it out", good luck, fuckers.

[tx 3 putt 76933]

Nerris was nails this year, he’ll be ok

[tx 3 putt 76933]

Hold on a gad damn minute, do we get free chicken sandwiches for Yordan’s hr off the pole ?

Crowd noise made it sound like "Houston." Turns out it actually was "lutefisk."

Yeah. Show up tomorrow. It’ll look closed and empty but I promise 

[runthebone 7981]

Looking around, feeling good about winning game 1 at home in a short series

Maldy has to guide Pressly to the promised land. Can't do that from the bench. 

Then why pinch run for Brantley? Either you do neither or you do both. Dusty didn't follow the common sense drill as per usual

Dusty sucks in case you haven't been paying attention

Yes, but Phil can bring more than this.

It’s a must 

[tx 3 putt 76933]

The next two games will be damn tough

[Dutchrudder 11139]

Woooooo 1 down, 10 to go!  Fuck yeah JV kicked ass! 

[Overlord 366]

Boy. It looks like we escaped disaster. All the big dog “favorites” are getting their asses kicked today/tonight. 

[tx 3 putt 76933]

Diamondbacks showed up with the red ass

Poor Kershaw is getting embarrassed. Like standing on a stage naked embarrassed. 

[Scraps 13561]

I called both Yordan homers just saying.


In fairness every fucking time he comes to AB i call a homer cause its the fucking odds on favorite

While JV's finally getting on a roll in crunch time, Kershaw's compounding his October woes. LA of course has the firepower to win a wild one, but I sure hope they don't. 

[henrygandorf 29190]

today i've heard that kershaw is a first ballot hof, maybe unanimous.  verlander is probably a hof, maybe first ballot.  ok.

must be nice for the nl to get the day off tomorrow.  why didn't they just stagger them from the beginning?  kinda shitty.

[Honeysucklerose 987]

Nice win Stros. Sorry I am not in the mood to celebrate much.
