    Just talking about his back not his SOs, but yea, he still needs more games to be himself, hopefully his back can hang in there until that time comes

    Too many backwards Ks by our boys this game. You protect the plate with two strikes, people.

    Altuve has had some pretty awful turns today. That one was so bad it actually made for a nice easy hop for Yuli.

    The skip throw from right of 3B, the hole at SS, the hole at 2B...has been a bit of a lost art, especially with the lack of astroturf these days. That was a nice one by Tuves.

    Nice. That should set up Verlander to throw his best stuff in the 7th. Looks like shouldn't need Pressley and Osuna today. Hopefully.

    Yikes. We need to campaign for him to be moved down in the lineup a la Springer in the 2017 playoffs.
