    Off topic, but the lead MLB network announcer was SO bad. The E Light Giants, several mixed metaphors, calling George Springer "Jerry Springer", one of the worst baseball announcers I've ever heard. (I liked Reynolds though...)

    "E"-light is actually the correct pronunciation (of this team), apparently. They mentioned that on the broadcast last night.

    I tuned in right at the start of the bottom of the 7th. Good timing eh?

    I definitely think we ran ourselves out of at least 1 insurance run that inning though. Kinda disappointing to have 4 hits including 3 doubles but only score twice.

    Not b****in tho. Its nice to win 7 STRAIGHT!!!

    Break up the Astros!!!

    Major league baseball, with long term hope.

    I forgot how fun this game could be.

    We need to win 8 more straight just to get to .500.

    At least we are no longer last in the AL.

    Just imagine if Albers & Crain can be healthy again.

    I said before the season shoring up the bullpen could add 10 wins.

    Is there a promo code for todays game? Would like to make it out.

    Or is there a website that sells cheaper tickets?

    Buy $10 ticket & move down if not too crowded. I'd guess the Altuve Jersey will hurt your chances (not to mention a 7 game winning streak).

    I would bet there is a good chance that attendance is going to be north of 35,000 today.

    Astros are watchable now.

    I still have memories of 2004 and when Kent sent that blast off the facad.

    Amazing atmosphere.

    You have to take a hack at that Springer with a 2-2 count.
