    Ted needs to get that AAA OPS up over .700 first.

    If the ball crosses into the stands, it's fair game.

    Here is a picture of the guy reaching across the yellow line to catch the ball:

    Should have waited a couple of hours before posting that. :) Tucker needs to get that OPS over .800 first.

    I didn’t get a chance to watch the game. Was Cole out of gas or could he have gotten one more out? What lead to him being pulled? Surely not a left handed hitter as Harris is not a lefty matchup like Devo.

    Hinch pulled him cause he gave up a double and Lucroy was next up after 2 outs. Lucroy was 2-2 on him for the day.

    Plus Lucroy had reached base 7 straight times against him. Since Lucroy was going to be the last batter he faced (more than likely) anyway, made sense to take him out.

    Cole becomes the 4th pitcher in Astros History with 60 K's in a month.

    ESPN didn't mention the other three, but I'd guess...
    Ryan
    Richard
    Scott

    Angels swept by the Yankees.

    16-12, +4 run differential.... definitely "legit competitors" for the division.

    Marwin Gonzalez .351/.419/.486 over his last 10 games

    Alex Bregman .351/.467/.486 over his last 10 games

    Correas in a bit of a funk seeing the ball, but he's not someone to be concerned about. Yuli is hitting into some terrible BABIP luck, but he's hitting the ball hard. Overall this offense is certainly regaining it's 2017 potency over the last 2 weeks.

    Enough wins to go around if there is 110 Of them.

    And yet, yesterday, Correa had his 11 game hitting streak where he hit over .400 and had 8 RBIs broken.
