    Gattis was pretty much a shortstop double play ball. What were they thinking? ;)

    Rays deserve to lose pitching to Correa there. Dumb to pitch to him in big spots with what's around him.

    Its nice to have HOF caliber player on the team. This team has a pretty terrible line up. I don't know how they have managed to score as many runs as they have.

    brilliant pitching for everyone. Clutch base running for rasmus and clutch hitting for correa and altuve. somewhat no longer mad at that stupid fan.

    Glad they were able to pull this one off tonight. Now Archer, Greinke, and Kershaw the next 3 out of 4 nights. Hope the bats are ready

    Kershaw on the road is less scarier than him at home. Archer is prone to the long-ball. Greinke is phenomenal, but the best way to beat the Dodgers is to get to their bullpen early.

    Astros bullpen allowed 3 hits and struck out 9 over 6 innings.

    I guess that makes sense too, considering Rasmus walked and Andriese was already going to pitch near 2 innings (command could be an issue).

    I'll take it either way!

    Thought it was crazy to pitch to Correa at first, but after I looked into it I think the math backs it up
