Raise your hand if you saw a 6-2 road trip happening with nearly 20 innings of scoreless relief.

puts a little added pressure on the A's. I wonder how they will react to being in it still.

I have to apologize to the Great White Shark..He found his teeth today and hits the big home run to win the game. Jake had two hit and the only time they got him was on a line drive....Marwin still swinging the bat well...and too much can't be said about the pitching. Great win.

So nice getting to the ninth inning with the lead and not having to hope that AJ doesn’t bring in his closer.

Rondon staking his claim to being the closer on the team. With the addition of the two new pitchers Rondon showing this is my inning.

It is all about the Pitching but you Still need to Score Runs to win. I use to argue with an Old Forum member about that all the time. If the Astros lost 3-1 or 21 or 3-2 he would blame the pitcher. LOL

Now it's time for Davis to find his groove. Interesting trivia. Going into today his ERA+ was higher (60) than his OPS+ (50.)
DL Correa 132
Altuve 141
Springer 116
These are the bats we need.
* Unless we can get Trout.

This is why the Astros have continued to rate as the #2 Power Team in Baseball. If the Offense ever decided it wants to included then they would be equal to the Red Sox's.

White hitting clean up, reduced to that. I wouldn’t bat him cleanup. Lower in the order. 17 K’s in 57 at bats. OOPS!

White has a .905 OPS in 23 games. I don't think anyone thinks he is a 905 ops guy for a season or even a half of a season. He came through today and he has come through on some other occasions but he is really kind of a 700-750 kind of guy. Good backup but not a star. 905 is a star
