    I still can't believe there's actually a player named Al Alburquerque.

    It's a strike

    Strikeout.

    Do they force you to follow them on twitter?

    I'm more fascinated with his name barely fitting his jersey

    The way he pitched in that 5th inning, getting out of the jam, will probably be the most impressive "getting out of a jam" any Astro pitcher will have all season.

    He's like a left-handed Maddux at this point... yes, that good.

    Neshek is our best reliever.

    I believe every tweet with that hashtag gets some donation to a charity. Hope that makes it easier to stomach the 6 characters

    Dang, Neshek. So efficient, run him out again in the 9th?

    I knew it meant strikeout, not sure why they use that phrase on every tweet even when it's not a strike.

    I follow them for news & updates smartass.

    it's like we don't notice it because we expect nothing less from Keuchel because of how great he's been. (Though when Harris or whoever would come in and do it, we'd think it was amazing)

    He's pitched incredibly--whether hitting his spots or not

    That's cool. Makes a lot of sense now since it's forced on every tweet.

    He's awesome. We just need him to do the same on the road.

    KC up 4-1, going into T9. Please don't blow the save again Holland.

    i think it's actually every tweet by others with #Whiff if they either tag the Astros or use the Astros hashtag also (not sure which of those is necessary). For better or worse, they encourage others forcing it also

    Gomez is not that good at the plate this year but he is still more of a threat at the plate than Marisnick, even though he just got the infield hit.
