    I want to see some better outings from Urquidy. His MO was always to get in and pound the zone, it's worked for him okay in the past but batters are now locked into the zone and ready to square up. He needs to make some adjustments.

    Urquidy is the weak link in the rotation now right? Would be awesome if he threw a gem tonight.

    I know this is moot, but he has had 2 bad innings over his 19+. He has a 2.54 ERA without those.

    In ~70% of games the winning team scores more runs in one inning than the loser did the entire game

    Cool stat to track. Astros last three games have played out normally

    Any idea how many of those are shutouts and 1 run scoring games?

    Would guess a small percentage (~10%) because shutouts are fairly uncommon and 70% of 162 is a large number

    Check the daily scores and count how many shutouts. Two happened yesterday out of 17 games

    70% of 17 = 12 games
    2 shutouts = 17%

    Should get at least 3 wins. Hopefully Hinch doesn't ruin their plans.
