    Abreu with the 1st shitty pitch and then gives up a bomb.

    Your 2024 Astros ladies and gentlemen...

    When you throw a fastball right down the middle of the plate, that tends to happen a lot.

    opponent pitchers throw some down the middle ball quite a bit. astros hitters can't do jack shiet with it tho.

    Completely different inning if Montero gloves that comebacker. Not his fault, not an easy play at all (and RP typically don't do a ton of fielding practice)

    Still time to come back for a season inspiring win.
    That is unless espada decides to pinch hit abreu with the game on the line

    Absolutely zero chance they come back to win. At best they get a meaningless run and lose 3-2.

    1) DP ends the inning
    2) bullpen is limited with Dubin, Montero, and Pressly all pitching yesterday
    3) 300 wins

    Looks worse now with Montero getting stretched for a 2nd inning.

    7-19 on the way. Unless…which seems highly unlikely
