Looked more like a hit and run.

What’s with this offense? Straw had that base stolen. Then, Altuve pulls a bad pitch to Chapman.

Pointless inning there. Could’ve easily manufactured a run.

Musgrove no hits the Dallas rangers Happy for him. One of the few ex-Astros who didn’t whip himself to the media for the cheating scandal.

I see I didn't miss much of a game today. Yordan 0-4 with 4 Ks? Ouch.

Welp. Now there's an error behind him. Correa is now shit in the eyes of Corcholoid, if he has ann integrity. Old Twitchy pitched around Correa's error and got ouf it. Now, Mr Greenjeans can find something else to bitch about.

What’s with this offense? Straw had that base stolen. Then, Altuve pulls a bad pitch to Chapman. So, what should we expect? He's gone back to his old self...pull weak ground balls to the weak side instead of hitting to the opposite field. He has zero patience and seldom has a plan when he goes to the plate..It's just walk up there and hack away. But hey.....he is the straw that stirs the drink, be is the Energizer bunny, and the sauce on the taco. No flies on little Jose. LOL

We will have more games like this one. All teams do. Am I the only one who couldn't believe Dusty let Maldonado hit in the 9th with two on and nobody out? Why didn't the idiot use Diaz or McCormick to hit for him?

LOL Don’t forget the usual with Straw at first base forgetting he has speed and just waiting for someone to move him over. I’m waiting for him to make good on his claim that he could steal 70 bases.

He is a great hitter when he uses all fields instead of wanting to pull on every swing.

At his current pace, he won't come close to attempting 70 steals. I don't think he has figured out how to read the pitcher as to when he should run. Might help if a coach who knew how to teach that were available. I think that was one of Pettis' areas and he isn't with the team right now. If Straw learns how to get his lead and read the pitcher as to when to go, he may steal 70. But, I don't think he's capable right now even with that speed. If he is unsure of himself, that is a concern.

If you would learn to read before popping off, it would help. How did George become part of this topic? I have said he was the MVP WHILE HE WAS HERE. Yet, you come up with some off the wall comment like that. All I said about your little man crush is that he tried to pull the ball too much and he had a terrible at bat when we had a chance to score. He pulled the first pitch he saw right at the third baseman instead of taking it to the opposite side as he should have done. I know he had two hits. All I did was point out how he gets himself out by pulling everything. If you can't see that, you need to pay closer attention. Yes, George Springer WAS the MVP of the Astros for the last few seasons, NOT Jose Altuve. The record speaks for itself.
