    Wasted opportunity. Just had to be better than the A’s, the worst team in baseball. Blew a huge opportunity today.

    yes I realize it’s not over and only 2-1

    Astros need to show up this season, at some point.

    Why can't Dusty just play the best lineup possible 90ish percent of the time. Christ

    Lol - Maldy’s offense is just comical at this point . They should rename the Mendoza line after him

    I get up at 5am to see Maldy strike out, missing the pitch by a mile. Two days in a row with no Diaz … wtf?

    Lineups like these are why we can never get ahead of the Rangers

    When Dusty Baker is finally fired it'll be cause for celebration throughout the city.

    Maldy isn't a good enough hitter to get batting 0.200 named after him.

    that line used to be the worst for a starting regular, the low bar. Maldy is rewriting history in what is a historically bad batting avg for a regular

    “They are considered an unstoppable juggernaut for a reason. Can’t expect to get a run off of these guys, despite playing all our best batters.

    Sometimes the other team is just better.”
