Sale not terribly sharp, but getting badly squeezed - still only 3 hits, awful defense behind him provided 2 unearned runs.
More mystifying is how Wade Miley (Wade F*ing Miley! Him?) is making most of our batters look silly. Jet lag? Lack of focus in this one...not really fun to watch. Also an odd batting order by Cora - resting Devers for Eduardo F*ing Nunez, tossing Leon and Pearce in there as well - seems Cora was hoping for a shutout.
And that 'Stros pen is about to appear.
Just noticed we have more hits than they do...just a weird game. Feels like we are getting killed because of poor defense and ....Miley. We should be teeing off on him.

These guys are just sloppy tonight.
I’d love to know what magic sauce they have in Houston to turn Wade Miley into a legit starter - even if for only a night.

Most of our ABs are hardly even competitive. What a weird game baseball is...a scalding hot team one night can look completely impotent the next.

I'm just going to assume that we're getting all of the gaffes out of our system tonight, and we'll be back to looking like an actual MLB team tomorrow.

Marcus Walden just dominated the top of the Astros lineup.

Good to see JBJ start to wake up. He hit that a long way. Wish we had that when the bases were loaded, but hey... baseball.

JBJ channeling last year's series. Creeping up toward the Mendoza line...slowly but it is going in the right direction. Too bad - some decent defense and this is a tie game.

Mookie showing the way. Xander and JDM - chances can't get any better than that....let's go!

OH well...we took a game when we came out flat and are making it competitive. So close....would have loved to see Raffi PHing there instead of Mitch, but...

Woulda loved to have seen Mitch actually swing at some fat pitches right in his wheelhouse

That was one impressive HR by JBJ.
Hembree should f'ing listen to Sandy Leon and throw the pitches he calls. Hembree's fastball is actually pretty good right now and he's shaking it off.

Pondering changing my name for this arm from Gas Can Hembree to Tight Rope Hembree. Somehow, he escaped, and is actually a decent arm lately.
Now...two runs. And we saved Raffi and CVaz (please, no Nunez or Leon)

Marisnick has cost us some runs with his defense today. Credit where it's due.

Heath Hembree combination of walks and flyballs scared the bejesus out of me I can't comprehend how he shook off a fastball on a 3-2 count to Tyler White who has proven he cannot catch any fastball in the upper half of the plate.

Pedey or Holt or Marco H - someone please be ready so we can squeeze Nunez off of the team. What the hell kind of a swing was that?
