15+mph wind in from left. Projected distance from stat cast was something like 385 and it didn’t make 365

I had to look up that Round Rock game.. not often you see this in the bottom of the ninth:

 

None other than our independent league pickup...Felipe Paulino...doing most of the damage. 7 runs on 6 hits. Retired one of the 8 batters he faced.

Brendon McCurry came on and allowed all 3 guys he faced to reach to finish the job

[Mez2 4021]

Go Skeeters? 

Side note, paulino is a really good dude.

Exactly.  Cleveland catches Minny by September 15th.  

Apparently, I was a month late on my prediction.  

[TonyTexas 10482]

Glad we got Zach and not Robbie
Classic game by Ray.
6 up, 6 down
Then in the third:
Double
Walk (T White! Who’s 1-14 for LA)
Sac bunt
Sac fly (1-0)
Walk
Double (2-0)
IBB

Gets out of it leaving bases loaded after 29 pitch inning

Little quick to judgment. Final Ray line:
6 IP, 2 H, 2 R, 3 BB. Against a pretty stout lineup.

That's what happens when you kick FGs instead of scoring touchdowns

He won’t make the show with us but I hope he makes it to the big show again

Yep

He was probably a Turner hit away from being chased in that game in that inning I posted and ended up settling down to give his team a chance to come back and win

On the other side, Beuhler is going to be touuuugh in Oct if he keeps up what he’s doing.

He only went 6 because of a high early pitch count but looked dominant

[tx 3 putt 76375]

 

Bregman’s At bat still gives me goosebumps. Windmill giving the go home sign to fisher, the same 

[Fat Bastard 593]

Another example to point to that shows Luhnow doesn't win all of his trades.  Fucking methhead

You know who else looks dominant,  your motherfucking Houston Astros

the altuve homer to the conoco porch off maeda after we’d fallen behind by 3 again is my all-time favorite swing of the bat.

It was right after he almost hit a home run on a hanging slider before.  So Maeda felt he had to throw him a fastball.  Never throw Altuve a fastball.

Blue Jays are playing scrappy today

After game 2, I told myself there would never be a better baseball game in my lifetime and a few days later this happened.

I guess you also have to put Chris Burke in the conversation. But I’m thinking Marwin against Jansen was as big as any.

It gets lost in all the other big hits in that game but that Springer home run is my favorite. Right after he made a big error he crushes one. On a different note here's an interesting article about how Judge has lost his pull power this season.

I was at Game 2 and was selfishly basking in the glow of having attended the greatest Astro game ever... and then Game 5 happened.  I got over it pretty quickly.  

[GHOSTUSER 361]

ABreg!! Great AB. 

[Scraps 13542]

Theres the homer.

Lets get about 6 of them tonight

[GHOSTUSER 361]

Holy shit Yordan’s HR left the ballpark and hit the BBQ stand!

[rvm96 1643]

It's nice to see Bregs stop popping the ball up and drive the ball. And, Yordan is doing Yordan things.

He’s unreal

Listening on the radio...
The sound off the bat...man

[Wishbone 4738]

Sanchez has to be digging this as well.

[rvm96 1643]

What's up with Osuna and Rondon's hair???

I was told Yordan would hit the warehouse

[Jshep34 2304]

Sound it made in the park leaving the bat. Gunshot

Sanchez gave up a hit?  To Villar?  What is this bullshit?

Anyone have statcast?

Plenty of ABs left. He needs to pull it more

[Zavala 1384]

TUUUUUVVEEE

SOME STROS FANS GOT A HOLD OF THE BALL TOO!

[Guadaloopy 10923]

27 runs tonight sound good?  

[Mo Horn 8807]

Ho hum, another homer 

[WBT 20421]

Aaron Brooks seems like he sucks
