Brantley getting a day off may be a good thing. He has been looking tired. I just wish we didn't have to play Wilson to give it to him.

Let's hope Castro is OK........the useless Wilson takes strike three with the tying run on second base.......Meyers continues to impress.

It’s beyond me why these guys don’t wear hand guards.

So, the worse team smartly uses smallball to manufacture a run while the “swing away” strugglers continue to ski uphill.

So when do you think the Astros will decide they need to win again. This really is a pathetic showing since before the end of July.

How did Wilson not beat that out? Because he's slow as molasses.

Wilson drags his ass and gets thrown out at first base.......Jose hits another of his famous fly balls for another one pitch out.....Yuli grounds out and is now 1-21.

Amazing that the offense got it together to tie the game. Hope we can pull this through.

Jose gets a leadoff double in the 7th, goes to third on a wild pitch, and we get NOTHING.....Yuli is just plain garbage right now and hits weak ground ball that keeps Jose at third. Yordan hits a ground ball that Jose is thrown out at the plate trying to score.....No fault to Jose for that......Yuli and Yordan both fail. This is why we are losing games.

Exit velocity to me is a useless stat cause no one uses it to compare players vs. one another whenever they bring it up

If Diaz gets a single or better, and if the Astros score two runs from it, then Abregmanfan can comeback!!

At least when I was in school that wasn't a word. It may be now for all I know

A great win and it was a MUST. Now, maybe we can go home and start a win streak......Oakland goes home to host the Giants. We got outstanding work from our pen today. Maton looked the best I've seen him in his two innings. Big hit from Diaz gets us the lead...bases loaded walk by Chas increased it. I wondered why Taylor Jones pinch hit for Castro,but, it worked out when he hit a sac fly......great job by Javier to close it.
Big games today from Correa, Diaz, and Yordan all with multi-hit games. Key RBI's from Chas on a double and bases loaded walk. We need Yuli to get going. He looks worse than I've ever seen him.

I’m glad Correa scored in the 10th because that was yet another baserunning blunder by Díaz to almost get tagged out beforehand. Lord have mercy with these guys.
