    combined no-hitters, so it's not like he was just behind the plate while an ace went to work

    American sports today = A Japanese player starting a game, a Latin player finishing a game... combined no hitter and both need interpreters after the game.

    I say we keep using this thread until they lose. Every team is the cubs.

    I see. For some reason I thought it was a little more. Two isn't too bad in limited games.

    A no-hitter at Globe Life Field. Love that. :DIt’s been a rough season, but the last few days have been great. Maybe it’s a real turnaround.

    Astros have won 7 of their last 10.

    Man if we can start to get some kind of consistency from the starting rotation those wins will creep up there.

    I’m not saying we are some World Series team, but we’ve been destroyed by injuries, and for them to fight back like this, I’m proud of them.

    I said this earlier in the thread. Somehow all our pitchers got magically better when Vasquez became the full time catcher.

    I owe Dusty an apology. Diaz is trash.
