    Altuve was flying around the bases on that cycle attempt. My goodness

    Wow... now this is a scary looking lineup for opposing pitchers. Valbuena hitting eighth and Gattis hitting ninth? No let up...

    Glad to see Altuve's foot is good enough to DH, even if that's the reason he's not in the field today. Gotta stay healthy (knock on wood) to try and keep this surge going

    a long ways away, but would be a damn shame if altuve loses the mvp because they give the sentimental nod to a less-deserving big papi.

    the hope is that would swing it altuve's way. baseball loves sentiment unlike any other though.

    BS! Ok Fister needs to test the corners more and see if the ump is consistent.

    HInch better do something because is the third batter this idiot umpire has called balls strikes.

    Altuve, 2 balls were called strikes. Rasmus one, the 4th ball, and now Reed the third strike called.

    Lets hope Fister takes advantage of this strike zone, if the ump is inconsistent, then Hinch needs to fight for the team.
