    Hunter Brown going to have to go 7 plus strong to win this one. Bullpen is tired, weird lineup, going to be tough today.

    Well, as Astros fans we gotta root for what we got even if it’s the bad news bears

    Cam going through a bad slump isn't great either

    Scrolling through social media and someone called us the Houston IL's.

    Pretty funny.

    It's not a coincidence that his slump and us losing have come at the same time. For a couple of weeks before this he was the best hitter on the team.

    ETA: last 10 games = .384 OPS, 10 before that = 1.160

    Command of the stuff is great, the control is not quite there

    Damnit, I don't think we can score here.

    Guy is sitting on FB only and the catcher can't work that to his advantage?

    Damn, 2 out, 2 strike hit. 2 runs might be too many for the bats

    Well, that happens with multiple damn baserunners.

    Astros need to score theirs too

    Why would you throw him a fastball there? He was clearly sitting on it the entire AB. Didn’t even think about swinging at the curveballs…

    It’s over. Saw that before he took a pitch. Polanco is a pesky hitter.
