    To be fair it’s not like Chas is tearing the cover off the ball

    The lack of speed at CenterField might cost the Astros. Chas McCormick looks terrible.

    Jake Myers or Mauricio Dubon needs to replace Chas McCormick.

    I love it! the announcers are going on about how smart Hinch is and how good the numbers are against Bregman and Bregman gets a first pitch hit.

    What is wrong with the camera crews. First the Tucker play they just kept the camera on an ump and then they don’t follow the ball for Bregman’s hit.

    Bregs, 1st-pitch swinging, leadoff single.

    Avoid the DP, Rocks

    Move the runner

    Diaz had great pitches to hit and didn’t make the most out of it. That’s gonna have to change soon.

    Not even piggy backing by Hinch. I hope he doesn't learn his lesson on using the same pitchers for 3 games in a short series....

    Astros -- hard contact, OUT
    Tigers -- weak contact, DOUBLE

    Detroit is winning the luck early.

    I like this strategy. If they get a lead they can go all in but if they get down they can move to their lower leverage guys and save some gas for game three.
