[Official] Mariners @ Astros

Now let's go RedSox

 

Cole had a chance for a 100 game score.

 

I'd take the under. I have a bad feeling about new line, no running game, and Superdome at night.

 

OVER

Bigger question is will they allow 21 each half ?

 

Wow. That was a serious tail kicking

 

Forecast in Minute Maid must have been for a heavy downpour on Seattle

 

Forgot that it was a day game. Just checked. Whaaaaat! Thought it was an error. Cole one hit them, and Alvarez's mini slump is OVER. Interestingly, the bottom of the order did most of the damage.

 

Man, what a game to see live! Fun to see the Express all-stars go off as well!

 

Savage, McTaggart. Savage.

 

Did your kid enjoy running the bases? Did you have to line up early or did you get to see the whole game? I remember we had to line up in the 7th inning when I was a kid.

 

I give you a lot of the credit.

 

I knew what time but I thought I would get a nap in and catch the last few innings with it being a 0-0 game when I turned it on. Wrong!

 

Cole is almost certainly going to top 300 Ks this year. Even after missing a game. He's at 281 right now with three starts left. JV will have a harder time. At 264, he'll need to average 12 K/game to hit 300. Which seems completely doable for him, honestly.

The all-time lowest single season WHIP was 0.7373 posted in 2000 by Pedro Martinez. JV currently has pitched exactly 200.0 innings. With three starts left, here's the total amount of walks+hits he can accumulate and beat that record. He currently has 118 H + 36 W = 154 total. His current WHIP is 0.7700.

27 total innings (3 CGs) = 0.7372 * 227 = 167.34 = 167 - 154 = 13 W+H
24 total innings (8 IP/g) = 0.7372 * 224 = 165.13 = 165 - 154 = 11 W+H
21 total innings (7 IP/g) = 0.7372 * 221 = 162.92 = 162 - 154 = 8 W+H
18 total innings (6 IP/g) = 0.7372 * 218 = 160.71 = 160 - 154 = 6 W+H

The way he's been pitching in his last 5 starts, the recorded data says this may actually be possible if he keeps it up.

 

I fully expect to never see a better Astros regular season game in person than what I saw today. Hadn't been to a game in a long time, normally I'm used to sitting there watching the Astros be on the other side of a one hitter.

 

4 more starts for each of them, right?

 

Line up late in the 8th, he loved it but yeah tons of kids did it

 

yes

 

I’m wondering when, if ever, there has ever been a more lopsided game in MLB history. This might be the biggest ass kicking all around in big league history.

 

That was easily the biggest ass whooping I have ever seen.

21 runs on offense and one hit away from a perfect game with 17 hitters striking out. Legitimately one of the 10 best pitched games and 10 best offensive games in my life (and likely franchise history) on the same day.

Frankly it was kind of mean.
