    Jake did a great job recognizing the error immediately -- probably would've gotten to 3rd either way, but that was smooth.

    Centeno... great Astros debut

    GOAT Marisnick with the clutch slide.

    Pitcher has a grasshopper in his jock.

    great running by Jake

    I feel bad for the pitcher. Why was the 2nd baseman covering on that play? I assume the P is used to the SS covering and momentum carrying him in the other direction (towards 1B)

    Anyone catch that McCullers-Fernandez comparison?

    The only two pitchers since 1913 to begin their home careers with...
    <2.20 ERA
    10+ K/9
    150+ IP
    While never allowing 4+ ER

    Pretty awesome coincidence

    They generally determine who is covering prior to pitching to a particular hitter depending upon how they intend to play defense. With Springer it could be 2B, with Altuve it could be SS.

    Absolutely off-topic, but remember when the Rangers decided to give Elvis Andrus big money over Ian Kinsler.

    Harris really got away with one to end that inning.

    But ultimately another solid outing.

    now let's bring Marwin in easily and prevent a Piscotty-like beating around the bases

    Some BS calls on Jake tonight by the ump. He made them pay for that.

    Meanwhile Centeno drawing walks like he's Barry Bonds.

    Jake Marisnick makes the opposing team pay after Juan Centeno was intentionally walked.

    Your 2017 Houston Astros.

    it's not fair, and it won't be true much longer.
