    Cashner doing work on the inside half of the zone, he'll probably hit another one at some point.

    Sloppy, sloppy ****ing baseball so far. It would be nice to not trip all over our dicks against the Rangers just once. I don't think I'm asking too much.

    I'd bet that 2nd run holds up for them.

    Didn't matter on that homerun but Springer has lost the ball in the sky several times at Minute Maid

    I doubt it.

    Cashner has zero control.

    It is Altuve and his short legs that cause all the tripping.

    I recall last year him losing the ball in the sky in right field as well.

    That was from the stupid blinding LED lights they put in. Cost them a game.

    That's the Joey Gallo I remember at 3B. I was just about to comment on how he's worked on his glove and feet and turned himself into a serviceable player over there. He was a total butcher the handful of times I saw him at RR last year.

    Jesus... the number of almost-homers the Astros have hit in the last two games is driving me nuts.

    Liner off pitcher, liner right to outfielder.

    Ball hit a million times high falls a foot short of going out.

    There pitcher is trash.

    Would have gone with roof closed.

    Win was blowing opposite of Beltran shot.

    Geez. Sometimes I miss the days of 17 strikeouts in a game. At least the other pitcher had to work in those games.

    It's all mental when we come up against the Rangers, just can't seem to get over it. Need something to really change the momentum between the two teams.

    He's throwing 90mph flat balls over the middle and getting extremely lucky.
