same astros fan: yordan hit the ball over our heads

Ragiest of all yardons

Berkman is really good in the booth. Would love to see him involved next year full time with our broadcasts now that he quit his job coaching Second Baptist. 

[Limp Brisket 549]

Professional pitcher.

I think it’s a beating to listen to him the whole game. Reminds me of my kids when they were little and never stopped talking.

Congratulations, you win beans!

I hear you but I think he gives really good insight and info. You must have really enjoyed him during that 5 hour long game with the Marisnick collision

I agree that most of what he says is very interesting.  But he talks over the action, and doesn’t let my mind rest.  

[Wishbone 4924]

George is getting upset.

[GHOSTUSER 361]

Come on Josh, damn it

[elfenix 34658]

Furk

[WBT 20884]

Damnit no productive outs at all

[Lat22 4070]

Who am I to disagree with Lance, but we’re in a much shittier position after that. 

[Limp Brisket 549]

Not worse off than before?  So a 2 out sac fly can score Tuve, Lance?

[Wishbone 4924]

It was going to be 2 outs anyway. A base hit or past ball/error is the only way to get Reddick home. A base hit would still get Altuve home.

[elfenix 34658]

Professional hitter

[Wishbone 4924]

And there it is.

[GHOSTUSER 361]

Great job picking up your teammates. Consummate pro

[tx 3 putt 78470]

Professional Hitter 

[WBT 20884]

Uncle Mike! 2 out rbis get you to heaven 

[Guadaloopy 11129]

Was there ever a doubt?

With 1 out and Reddick on 3rd a sac fly would’ve scored Reddick, instead with 2 outs and Tuve on 2nd the sac fly wasn’t an option, it had to be a hit.

Tuve was going to be out at first.......

If Reddick didn’t go they would have thrown Altuve out at first and a sac fly wouldn’t be an option in either case. Either way, a runner at third or second with two out is going to need a hit to score, and that is what happened.

[Wishbone 4924]

Safe, unfortunately.

[Mo Horn 8933]

Not really that close. Not sure how the ump missed that one.

No shit.

Also, get it together Greinke! 😁

[Wishbone 4924]

Without looking into it, does anyone know offhand what is considered high pitch count for Greinke?

[Wishbone 4924]

Chirinos contributed to that run on the PB

[cabowabo 4645]

Can we get a uniform that fits Greinke?

Greinke not doing him any favors. 

[Guadaloopy 11129]

Fastball command not there for Greinke.  

[Wishbone 4924]

Ironic that Greinkek’s first start for us is against his former division rival that is recently and very familiar with him.

Orioles outfielder just took one of the dome while sliding to make a catch.
