[Official] Astros @ Twins

Craig Reynolds own the major league record for most triples in a game, with 3.

 

I didn't write that.. I responded to someone being "fearful of tonight's bats" compared to the 1st game. I was just saying I'm no more fearful of tonight than I am of any game...and in fact, the likelihood of hits might improve tonight.

 

It's neat to look back on how Tucker and White were viewed after their little hot starts, versus how Reed and Bregman were viewed after their little terrible ones. 2 guys were AMAZING FUTURE LINEUP FIXTURES, while the other 2 were just CRAP. Actual talent evaluation, the streaky nature of the game or sample sizes weren't really a factor. I found it funny then, and it's still funny now.

 

Just realized Tuve is 11 hits from 1K. Wow!

 

Sipp......loves that long ball.

 

playing with a can of gasoline in a fire by bringing out sipp this season.

 

lol sipp

 

Why is Sipp a major league player again? I could do as good and I've played no baseball at any level.

 

Really wish they had found a way to get a Boone Logan or Hunter Cervenka at the deadline.. f'ing Sipp

 

What happened to Sipp? He used to be good

 

booooooooooooo, steailng tuve's shot

 

Goodness...15-6.

 

Watch Tucker strike out

 

LOL...hope not. Swung at the first pitch.

 

lol their best pitcher of the day was Escobar.

 

The Gomez disease.

 

For those of you knowledgeable about baseball. Since today is a double header I know that every player is available for the second game however I am curious. Say in the next game we get in a situation where we need a lefty arm out of the pen. Although eligible to pitch can a pitcher like Sipp go out for a batter? Or is that unheard of.

 

haha, just chalk it up to baseball largely being a lucky sport.

 

Thank god our offense showed up, we've given up 7 runs here

 

Man, thank goodness for the rain. They have murdered our pitching the last 24 hrs....
