So check this out. Tyler White gets a hit right at Marwin preventing him from running from second to home. Next AB Marisnick hits a Taylor made double play ball
Odds of sub .200 hitters coming through in that situation exceedingly low... Astros had two of those guys, with a scuffling rookie in between, trying to get the job done.
rangers in that situation get the ball to bounce off the base pad 15ft in the air, odd spin to the outfield and to the corner for an infield home run. =/
Silver lining...two good back to back starts for Kuechel. Not perfect, but some reason to exhale. Outside of a couple innings he's looked better.
Keuchel is pitching much more like a Cy young winner... We HAVE to win this game. You simply can't waste an outing like this. Ah but here comes the bottom of the order.
