    Yeah - he some how manages to keep his strikeouts under control while wildly swinging at anything eye level and above.

    I think he is aware of his power and is trying to hit homers - when he starts swinging at the right pitches (they have been working on it with him) he will be someone that hits 290-330 in his prime and will have a lot of extra base hits.

    What is a cross checker? Is this sort of like a cross dresser? :)

    Astros franchise record for consecutive games with a HR is SIX

    Seems feeble. I would've guessed more

    Ensberg hit it 6th game

    Uncanny… leadoff man on every inning except the first.

    Hopefully he is able to eventually “see” left-handed pitching as well…

    If we play against anyone else like we have in this series, we are getting swept easily.

    That MF had a .348 OPS. This team needs a shakeup. It's ****ing inexcusable.

    Hunter has had a good game . We better score more than 2 runs on the A’s, if not, then we have met the enemy, and it is us

    In this game, it is hard to tell which team has the losing record and which team has the winning record.
