    Derek Bell = one of the most hated Astros ever

    I remember his booming SUV and shunning of fans as he left the Astrodome after games.

    Lance is getting no swing and miss. His curveball is way slower and less depth. Not the same as what he had in 2017 and 2018.

    I want to stop seeing Cy Sneed and Joe Biagani pitching for the Astros.

    .... Keep marching Sneed out there.... Any one honestly expect anything different to happen?

    What did they say? 14 hits, 8 walks in 6 2/3 innings pitched this season for Sneed?! Wow.

    Wow, sometimes it takes a little luck combined with skill.

    Nice pitches by Cionel.

    Wouldn't mind seeing one of his patented "barely cleared the fence" HRs tonight.

    Quantrill just unleashed the most wild attempt to first I've seen. It's like he didn't care.

    Altuve in scoring position

    Need to capitalize off that blunder.

    Tucker has shown a clitch gene thus far early career.

    Had some customers tell me they just got back from San Diego. I asked them how perfect was the weather? They replied hot as hell.. It was 95-98 when they were there.

    Suck it Cali with your almost always perfect weather.

    Great AB by Tucker... and he finished it.

    Good to see him not swinging at everything.
