    Tucker continues his RBI'ing and power while compact-swinging

    Get some runners on, then encore

    We're about to screw their "losing a game after up-late" stats.

    Someday he might hit a HR with a man on base. 4 solos so far.

    Didn't realize that but confident it will happen.. repeatedly.

    He's shown a clutch gene already in his early career.

    Coming into today:
    OPS with men on/RISP: .461/.367
    OPS with bases empty: .928

    Don't know about his clutch genetics, but I too am confident this will not hold as the season progresses.

    Michael Brantley is a professional hitter

    That is all

    So far, slow-ass Brantley has tripled and slow-slow-ass Maldonado has gone 1st to 3rd.

    A dub could be destiny.


    Eta- just surrendered another run. We gotta stop doing that or there's no dub destiny

    Oh man... the bunt by Alvarez was GOAT.

    Teams copy our over-shift style.. then, we still take advantage.

    Astros franchise is ahead of the game.

    2. Successful Yordan bunt

    I’m not dreaming right, Yordan laid down a perfect bunt?
