    Batters don't need to be tipped off when McHugh and Peacock are throwing the ball right over the plate repeatedly.

    I think it’s more of the Astros pitching philosophy. If it’s belt or higher it’s a fastball any lower and it’s an off speed pitch.

    Peacock's lips read, "that's bullsh1t, man" on that bullsh1t call.

    Umps can't be perfect though, true. Close call.

    Nice bunt, Brantley.

    He's very skilled with the bat.

    Smoking line drives right at them isn't working, that's 4 soft hits the other way now.

    Correa hit his about 25 feet too far.

    There ya go Josh! All about keeping the exit velocity low tonight.

    Reddick going opposite field w some regularity is a nice development.

    Dammit, nice relay by the LF and cutoff...ball caromed right to the LF too.

    White hit it too hard.

    Damn! Wasn’t that close but nice to see the bottom of the order produce. White must’ve heard that Yordan was coming for his DH spot.

    Some more bad luck with a clean transition of the wall.

    Windmill strikes again. The cutoff man had the ball before Reddick even touched third.
