A win today means we win the series and the season series (which was vital last year). It also pushes the Rangers further out of the race. Hopefully Kikuchi sticks to what he did last time.
.5 out of 1st place.

Bases juiced. Big opportunity here.

At this point, I’ll take the one run. Come on Caratini!

Lucky Pena is fast or we get nothing again...

4 stranded runners (one out on a DP) in the first two innings. 0-4 with RISP

As soon as Altuve walked, I knew a double play was incoming. SOB!

BLUE THAT WAS STRIKE 3! What are we doing here?!

Hopefully this means Yordan is heating up!

Great work by Kikuchi! And what a smash by Yordan. He seems to be back!

Enough with the double plays offense. Geez.

Hit hard by Jake. Bad luck.
This is a better lineup with Caratini and Diaz both hitting. They need to figure out how to get them both in the lineup more often. Maybe Diaz at 1B some more or something.

We keep hitting the ball hard.

Altuve can't even hit the ball hard against guys he's crushed in the past... Going on a month since his last HR.

Nice HR by Caratini! Have to get that .800 OPS in the lineup more often.

7 Ks in 5 IP for Kikuchi so far. Not quite as dominant as last game, but still very impressive so far.

Some clutch hits and some power. This is what we've been missing. Great to see!

I hope this just the beginning of an offensive breakout for a while.

Abreu did his job. It’s up to the overpaid relievers now.

Dezenzo with a great game, and Dubon has shown up again. Altuve finally hit a ball hard but got under it too much. Hopefully he is starting to come out of his slump.
Need more runs...

Eh, one hard hit ball. He's fine.

So did we really bring Aledmys back to just sit on the bench? Surely we're not wasting a roster spot just because he friends with the other players...

Not telling Caratini to bunt was just failure.
