    We needed the win....15 games left...disappointing to not take it advantage of bottom feeders.

    I really wanted that no-hitter, but they don't deserve it after losing the first two games.

    The ONE win could've at least been a no-no.. Damn

    Bad series and a terrible series considering the Rangers swept theirs.

    Astros need a winning streak.

    Hunter had his best career start when you account for results and PC. Hope that's a sign going forward.

    Sad, not really on the no-hitter because Dusty will take full credit for saving his bullpen. H.Brown may never get another chance at a no hitter with less than 80 pitches.

    It's on the road, so a sweep with the Astros scoring 30+ runs.

    You would complain under any circumstances. Hunter Brown has never pitched this many innings in his life. Are you willing to blow out his arm for a no hitter?
