No because you had Marisnick on deck. As good as Jake has been you have to let Yuli swing away there.
How about a big hand for Fiers. He had every opportunity to go full blown head case after being pulled from the rotation only to be put back in later that day or the next to come up with some solid starts the last 2 trips to the mound.
That's how good this team is playing right now. When Escobar dropped that ball at 2nd, you could feel a 3-run bomb coming.
The cold part is, they were .500 after 8 games (not a bad record)... and haven't looked back. Most of that was home games.... where they've struggled comparatively vs road.
42-16 ( No you dont need glasses) 26 games over .500 11 W's in a row, 11 road W's in a row... Stros franchise record! Lets get 43 tomorrow! and then 44 and 45... before we go home. ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE! woooooo Fiers also got his 7 runs haha
