    5-2 Rick Porcello, RHP vs. Jordan Lyles, RHP 7:10

    5-3 Doug Fister, RHP vs. Bud Norris, RHP 7:10

    5-4 Max Scherzer, RHP vs. Lucas Harrell, RHP 6:10

    5-5 Justin Verlander, RHP vs. Philip Humber, RHP 3:10

    The Astros are so bad, they lose to teams that don't even exist. SMH.

    As much "rivalry" with the mythical Togas as with any other team in the Softball League.

    Young team. Trying things to see how they work out. Small sample size. Worked tonight. :)

    The last two games have really sucked. Bad luck and young mistakes cost us the Yankees game, and then an error by a guy with an OBP barely over .200 can't cleanly field a ball yesterday to cost us a win.

    At least we are being competitive I suppose.

    He is horrible in save opportunities... but great outside of them. Why have a set closer if you're us? I am not a fan of his, but I would like to see Veras used outside of saves and not the exclusive closer. Why not?
