2018 Houston Astros Season Thread

[thetruth 149]

Thank you for the kind words guys. Let's get a W tonight

[David Dennison 18940]

Because you're all interested, the AL and MLB record for grounding into DPs is 174 by the 1990 Red Sox.

Something to shoot for!

[Scraps 13570]

What are the chances White doesn't ground into a double play?

[Seasick Sailor 3747]

At least a DP should score a run here.

Stros have a shot at it, but they'll have to step it up.  They're at .94 a game before the 3 today.  Last year, KC led the league at .99 a game.  Toronto was at .94 a game last year also. This year, the Astros are lapping the field.  Baltimore's .84 DPs per game is in second place.

Yuli !!!!

[Scraps 13570]

Yuli tried to help the double play numbers but instead decided to get an rbi single for some reason

[Scraps 13570]

Reddick picks it up!

[tx 3 putt 77231]

Well I’ll be damned , a double play 

[David Dennison 18940]

I have no words.

[Honeysucklerose 990]

How can Hinch not throw a 5 gallon jug!??? Seriously. 4 straight innings with a double play.

[perfectchaos007 6677]

At least we cashed in a run before hitting into a double play this time

4 DPs now.  The record is still in reach.  4 a game from here on out and they can make it insurmountable.

[Scraps 13570]

I believe the record for most in one game is 7. We can tie it!

[David Dennison 18940]

I'm pretty sure the Rangers are losing out of spite at this point.

[Stros 153]

Getting in late, what happened to peaCOCk? Valdez is looking very good so far.

You're not being very optimistic.  Mariners can tie this up and we break the record in extra innings.

[FondrenRoad 4378]

2nd bullshit check swing ball call on a lefty that clearly went around.

[tx 3 putt 77231]

Umps are giving framber zero calls today 

[WBT 20642]

Valdez is coming

[Planet Houston 4930]

Damn, no chance for a double play this inning.

Also - Valdez is a great surprise.

[clapclapclap 9000]

Captain A.J. Hazlewood ain't gonna let Valdez run aground this time.

Yeah, Valdez is looking good so far other than the hit by pitches.

Nothing
Just a desire not to stretch our Peacock more than what he’s used to in the bullpen, lefty heavy lineup for Seattle tonight, was Valdez’ regularly scheduled night to start for CC.

[tx 3 putt 77231]

Framber gives zero fucks LuLz 

[DoobieWah 1452]

Pleez tell me someone can make a gif of Harris freezing the runner on the pickoff.

That's a classic deer-in-headlights move.

[Smax 3800]

Harris?

[RegularSizedRudy 36]

They all look the same...

[perfectchaos007 6677]

Another one 

[huge 3795]

This is getting rigawdamdiculous

[Planet Houston 4930]

[Planet Houston 4930]

Didn't Hinch announce that Osuna was the closer now?  What happened?

[Honeysucklerose 990]

Officially in 2nd for hopefully 4 outs

[perfectchaos007 6677]

Can the mariners please throw us a bone and hit into a double play?

[Honeysucklerose 990]

I’m glad we grabbed Osuna!

[Planet Houston 4930]

Can't get anything right in this bullpen the last few weeks.

[perfectchaos007 6677]

They hit the last 2 balls on the ground but they found their way through the infield 

[Seasick Sailor 3747]

Whew

[Planet Houston 4930]

Boom

[Seasick Sailor 3747]

of course

[perfectchaos007 6677]

I was about to say Reddick was semi intentionally walked to set up the double play but it was too late 

[Seasick Sailor 3747]

 

[David Dennison 18940]

Wow.

[Honeysucklerose 990]

I saw that inning ending no other way. Even if springer hit instead of Gattis.

It had to end in a DP

[huge 3795]

Rigawdamdiculous

[perfectchaos007 6677]

Well I guess Tony kemp is not out of the game after all

[perfectchaos007 6677]

Hit into a record number of double plays yet still have a chance to win

[perfectchaos007 6677]

Nice!
