    Switching back over after this basketball game. Tell them to go ahead and score in the meantime.

    Honestly - Grayson Rodriguez looked very mediocre to me. When I saw him in the minors 2-3 years ago, his stuff was a lot better. Injuries must have taken a toll on him.

    Mancini snatched the sharp liner we needed, and missed the one we needed.

    This fortune is very un-Astro-like.

    We're getting help with some favorable ball-strikes too.

    Eta: of course there's another injury. Wade had been playing well too. The gods.

    Zeferjahn has literally thrown only 4 pitches across the plate to 5 batters and about to get out of it

    Just as Kalas was praising Santos for how good he's been, he loses a bad challenge call and then gives up a bomb to Neto, sigh

    Can we pretend that Matthews is not a major leaguer and send him back down?

    This is a game the Astros really need to figure out a way to win… Will be 8 under .500% with a loss against a terrible Angels team.

    Yeah... we still have a chance though. Two more ABs and a solid bullpen.

    No sure why Lope isn't up.

    Why are we taking Walker out of the game? He's only at 1st. And Whitcomb isn't significantly faster than him on the basepaths. High chance this is going extras.

    Because chances are he won't bat again in extras. Game will be over by the 10th.

    We're also downgrading defensively at 1st

    Espada is such a colossal turd for burning Walker there.

    That’s 100% Altuve. Joe isn’t going to force Altuve to bunt there.

    His and Yordans ABs there were absolutely atrocious.
