    So many times this year the Astro starter goes 5 2/3 innings and then the bottom falls out. It happened yesterday against a .172 “hitter”

    Really odd timing to be going on this rant considering he’s the only reason we even have a chance in this game right now…

    I can't even crush fastballs that high in the The Show. It always ends up being a whiff or a pop up.

    Altuve makes me so nervous. He came real close to dropping that

    Chas due up first? Always nice starting the inning with 1 out.

    Chas can not hit...period. Has company with Singleton and a host of others.

    69 K’s Chas. At least he’s a rich crappy hitter.

    Astros were 12-24 and 10 games behind first place this season.

    They are now 3.5 games *ahead* of the division (at worst) after today.

    Have some perspective and respect the Dynasty.

    I've never remembered a season in forever that Altuve has been so ineffectual as far as impacting the outcome of the game. It's a lot more miss than hit this season.

    He’s always behind in the count 1-2 or 0-2.
