Never confuse C.B. with Bill. Bill Buckner was a good guy that had a bad moment, the other has had a career of bad moments……
His knees were shot and they had often been using a defensive replacement for him all year...manager wanted him on the field for the final out. Oops.
"The ball always finds you". "Player makes a great defensive play, then leads off the next inning". Neither statement is really true, it's just acknowledged when it happens. ____ Now, Ima go wear my "lucky socks" and play blackjack. .
Someone posted the screenshots at the point Singleton had the ball thought about the Austin Powers steamroller scene:
Not looking forward to the game with this rag/tag lineup. Pitching good. Hitting, base running, fielding, scoring, etc, not good. Hard to win when you are punchless.
Why in the heck did we not go out and sign Belt? Dude is from Nacogdoches, a lefty, good glove, two time WS champion with good pop and hits.255. I don’t get it…
It's very believable. Bad sleep, bad massages, TJ's for everyone, Maldy over Diaz, etc..... it's the Astros way. .
We were spoiled by how good Bagwell, Berkman (reputation tarnished by his CF days), and Yuli were with the glove.
I think I get it, Espada is going to keep running McCormick out there until he gets at least one hit. It is some kind of challenge. May take awhile.
We can’t expect anything from the Astros if tucker and yordan are out. We can survive with one of them sitting out, but not both. Obviously, “sore neck” is a flat out silly lie.
