In Kansas City, Chas McCormick made an adjustment with his hands, bringing them down from up near his head in hopes of getting the bat head out quicker and pulling the baseball more. Two pull-side hits today.

He’s been working on that (pulling the ball) since spring training

Come on Seth, nail this down 

[David Dennison 18855]

Nice outing, Seth. Well done.

[Scraps 13561]

[WBT 20562]

[perfectchaos007 6635]

[Macklemore 2876]

Good job on getting the series win.

[Guadaloopy 10962]

GREAT series win.   Well done, boys. 

[WBT 20562]

Keep winning series.

We've won two, lost two, and split one.  What are you guys complaining about again?

[runthebone 7978]

Uh oh.  Look who's up to 5 games under .500

[YChang 3443]

Yep, baby steps. Keep getting healthy and keep winning series

[Rimbo 25921]

I like games where Tuve gets 2 HR on 7 pitches

I like winning

I like beating the Rangers

but most of all, I like a good meme

Maybe don’t print the tombstone yet

[tx 3 putt 76912]

Astros beat the Rangers, 8-5, to take two of three in the series behind two homers from Altuve and seven strong innings from Javier. They've won consecutive games at home for the first time since Sept. 9-10, 2023.

[Make em eat Taco Bell 1549]

Dubon playe 1 or 2 games at 1B last year.   That minor league 1B prospect with high K% but still preferable over Buttons.  

Why not just play Dubon/Minor leaguer at 1B?

[tx 3 putt 76912]

Astros are 2.5 GB

Is it bad when your 8th inning guy has better walkout music/display than your closer?

This rivals when Chris Jericho made his WWF debut on Monday Night Raw

[Gut Wagon 8065]

Seems our problem is that we haven't been playing enough games against Arlington.

Because when you make a gazillion dollar mistake, it's important not to admit it and try to do something better, because then people might realize you made a mistake and say stuff, see?

[Hornsbay22 468]

Forgot a note from today's game: I hate 3-0 swings and call them selfish, my brother and I get in a lot of arguments over this often.  I just think base runners lead to more runs, why swing when you're only successful at hitting 30% of the time.  Anyways Altuves 2nd bomb may have changed me.

That was their 11th round draft pick. That means they like him. Those are the guys they think are first and second round talent that are tough signs.

He already looked like a grown ass man when they drafted him.
