No-Hit Boy vs. No-Fastball Boy
Could be another pitcher's duel if both pitch the way they did in their last start. I have concerns about Keuchel against this offense, but he is normally successful at home and has been successful against this team.

Of course, apparently Manaea has been very good at MMP and against the Astros despite a losing record.

Kinda glad I've got relatives in town this weekend and can't watch any of the games. A's have won 9 of 13 and their lineup can rake. I don't have a good feelin bout this series

I don't have a great feeling either, but I'm still going to the game Saturday.

Astros are hitting .258 vs. left handed starters.
Astros are hitting .257 vs. right handed starters.

I guess starting Jake isn't so bad if Josh is starting. Dumb lineup order though

“Another start for Jake apparently” SMH Just as I predicted. He hit a dinger and made a sliding catch or something, so now he's Babe Ohtani again. They'll start him for the next 50 strikeouts, then sit him a game or two. |

Yes it was done, but cannot remember the pitcher. It was before our time.

Vander Meer issued 11 walks and only struck out 11 hitters over those two games. Pretty unlikely way to pull it off.
And he walked the bases loaded in the 9th inning of the second game. Still got out of it.
