Qualls going to get the end-of-game opportunity tonight. I like that move... presuming Qualls continues to pitch as well as he has post-injury.
very odd after luke got the last save in easy fashion. But maybe so...maybe they wanted a "save opp" for qualls that was also a 3 run lead--as a real test with some cushion
Tonight at the end of the game we hit with RISP, and won. Why we did not used Marwin a little bit more on the road??? Specially vs left handed starters. He needs to play more. K was great, this game was decided in the 5th when he did not allow the runner from third to score with less than 2 outs. This game was projected in the win column, so we are now 2 and 0 in that 16 game prediction, while Royals losing tonight are 1 and 2. The projection was 9 and 7 Astros, 9 and 9 Royals. Well, Astros starting pretty gooood with the 2 and 0.
