    Springer mashed the ball earlier too. Awesome crush job!

    Haha

    That may have been the luckiest catch I've ever seen.

    I thought Springer never does anything with games on the line, or in the late innings...

    I usually want to throw something when Gomez makes a mistake on the base paths, but that's about as good of a move to first you'll see with the quickness and location of the throw.

    There's literally no reason it shouldn't be.

    You would think. Was wondering why they were warming up Feliz and Giles. Feliz for the winning/tied scenario, Giles for the losing scenario?

    Sidenote, never heard "double-barreled action" describing 2 righties before. But maybe it's just rare to have 2 righties up at the same time

    He doesn't, until he does.

    You think the exact same scenario and sequence of pitches would have occurred?

    Maybe it was Giles for winning and Feliz for tied/losing. Ugh...let's hope

    Not sure I want Giles in here when you have Feliz in the pen.

    Can the Astros start playing mistake free baseball tho?

    Gomez does great at the plate then gets picked off, McHugh was losing it in the 7th (Red Alert)... Maybe Hinch coming out to the mound?

    The Springer bail-out happened, but can we get a 1-2-3 8th and 9th... Please?

    Cardinals have trouble with high-speed fastballs... so I would imagine either would be effective.

    Giles pitches a lot... and while he's been great lately, I'd like Feliz to maintain his good rhythm too.
