    The "only" part is the annoying part. I'm not generally a big fan of announcers, but I like the Astros current crew.

    Yep. I was 5th row first base side. Heard the hall hit the glass of the closed roof. Who knew 43000 could be so quiet

    I get that we're good...really good...but I still kind of cringe at the comparison. Mostly because I see the Warriors players and coach time and time again act like total douchebags. Meanwhile, the Astros are pretty much the most likeable team ever and have garnered fandom from all over, because they're a fun team full of great guys that are also doing amazing things. They don't need to be constantly propped up and smoothed over by the media; they did everything themselves and are getting recognition directly by the fans based on their own merits as baseball players and as people.

    Teams in any sport, regardless of success, should strive to be the Astros of that sport.

    Anyone else feeling like this is a playoff game even though we’re only in May?

    Good news.... for now. We know the club's injury coverup history.

    Hopefully a couple days off, then full recovery.

    Ok. It's the Jake and the fatman lineup.

    Go Astros.

    Big test for Martin. Road game. Nationally televised. Great lineup.

    Let's score early and often to help his comfort level.

    But Betts would have 100% caught that Altuve home run right...

    If only our OF was as good as Bostons we might not make those plays either. :eek:

    Sox starter headed for the showers.

    Recorded an out, so ERA is measurable.
