    That's the best case scenario I'm hoping for too.

    Bad result, but nice to see Yuli rip a line drive

    1,2,3 not good. Don’t want Luzardo to feel
    Comfortable out there

    He's just got to get his breaking stuff down. It has just been either way outside or up. He's pounding that fastball up in the zone that should allow him to get some chases if he could get close to the plate without being a hanger over the middle or up.

    I am hoping the offense scores so many runs that what our pitching does doesn't matter.

    Holy crap, I'd never made the Will Clark-Brantley comparison. That's spot on.

    Looks like Urquidy got his groove.

    It would be ironic but fitting for the year of this turned into a pitchers duel after all the talk of balls leaving the yard

    It would be even better if they drop four in this half inning.

    Seems like this has at least been the Astros pattern for all the games... hopefully it continues.

    Astros have given up one run not on a homer. It should not be a surprise if Urquidy can coast for 2-3 more innings as his pattern this year has been to get better command as the game goes without losing much.

    This ump behind home plate seems a little too enthusiastic calling strikes against the Astros. ;)
