    You can't comfortably take that pitch on a potential strike 3. i'd ring em up every time if you're taking that like it's a sure thing!

    I'm dead serious. Abreu needs to kick rocks and Singleton needs to get some starts at 1B so Diaz can still DH. Of course we all know there is about as much of a chance of that happening as there is me farting my way through the star spangled banner.

    Just when you thought the Rangers would extend the division lead to 4 games, who knows, maybe the Astros luck out and get some help from Oakland to move to within 2. This COULD prove to be a turning point. Let’s hope.

    Splendid comeback!
    Singleton contributed right away and Pressley didn't give it back.

    Bravo!

    You can post what you want but this is the very reason I don’t EVER call this version of this franchise dead until it’s over. Pretty much the same posters every time and that’s fine, most own up to it, it’s a fan forum, maybe reverse jinx are a thing so maybe a thank you is in order…..

    It’s honestly the best time to watch. You aren’t expecting anything so when it does happen it’s even more exciting.

    This reminds me when I turned the Astros Mariners Game 1 off in disgust and went out to yell at my landscapers. Thought we had already lost. Then I came back and Yordan's homerun won the game! We then went on a World Series winning tear.
