    Also, he probably won't keep it up, but Marisnick is looking to be a good/ideal 9 hole guy. Turns the lineup over great so far and seems to work counts.

    Keuchel is wondering where those called strike calls were while he was pitching...

    The pitch Sipp just threw was as close to identical as the George Springer K as possible...

    Last pitch looked perfect to me, too close to take but you'd have to be thinking inside and shorten your swing just to foul it off, especially after he had you looking outside with the previous 2 sliders down and out. Don't know what the computers show, though.

    The HP ump has been pathetically inconsistent, that's for sure. I missed that AB, had it flipped over to the Masters.

    rangers letting balls hit their shoulders. good for them.

    if valbuena didn't fly out of the way of one with the bases loaded a few innings back, this game would be long over.

    god i love my sickening stros. season after torturous season.

    They spent money last year, then Albers & Crain fell apart. They tried again this year, I don't see how it could work out any worse in the long run.

    I'll say this, regardless of what happens today, Tony Sipp was a brilliant find by the FO.

    Yeah, it's why I emphasized today. I have faith this year is better than last, but today has hurt.
