Correa with his 2nd HR in his short MLB career!

I just got back from the game. It was fantastic!

I had a Mariners fan sitting behind me who was telling his buddy right before the game started how Felix was going to put on a clinic and to try not to cry too much and...he didn't say much after the Astros made it through the entire order in the first inning. :lol:

Dwight was at the game tonight. Looked like he was having a good time. He was hamming it up for the camera during Deep in the Heart of Texas.

You lucky bastard getting to go to last nights game! Damn that was a fun one to watch.

I missed the game today but apparently that's a good thing. Hopefully McCullers will shut them down tomorrow to take the series.

I hope Altuve isn't out for too long, seeing Gonzalez out there every day is frightening.

Interesting start for McCullers today. He didn't give up a hit in 5 IP, but his location was a bit off most of the day and he got hit really hard(to the track) multiple times and got away with it.

The Astros have left 20 runners on base and still scored 11 runs through 5 innings. I'll take it.

Altuve is back today, hitting 3rd after Springer/Correa.

Rasmus on the bereavement list so Domingo Santana called up to take his place.

Hope Velasquez has another solid outing today, and I'm glad it's a day game since I can't get out and work today anyways, so I guess I'll just have to drink beer and watch the game instead. Damn!

;)

Arenado is **** ridiculous defensively, wow. That last play to get Gattis was impressive.

McHugh makes me so nervous when he pitches lately, and with today's game being in Coors Field, well...I got the valium ready just in case.

Correa steals third and comes home on a Carter base hit to tie the game 3-3!

An inning where we score a couple runs without hitting a HR? Ahhhh, the art of manufacturing runs, good stuff. Even McHugh got involved with a base hit and a run scored.

I can't believe Hawkins is still pitching in MLB.

Springer will be in CF tonight with Marisnick going to the DL. Too bad the damn game starts so late, have to work tomorrow so I probably won't catch much of it, if any.

I'm going to try to stay up to watch it.

These West Coast games are brutal.

Springer is awesome.

The two review men in black with another man in black holding their sack between them, well...whatever.
