[Official] Astros @ Royals

It's been a lingering issue, apparently

 

That was the sloppiest game they've played in a while. And they still won by four runs. With Mike Fiers on the bump.

hahahahaha.

 

awesome, minor injury!

 

Seattle has won 7 of 10 and have lost 3.5 gms in the standings after tonight.

 

was at game tonight cheering on astros. Im basically the reason we won.

 

I bought an Astros snap-back a couple years ago that has been in my cap rotation ever since. I justify my purchase because the colors look great and I'm from Houston. It is still one of my favorite hats even with the rise in popularity of "dad hats".

I should mention I bought that hat when the Astros weren't very good. So in a way... by the process of osmosis... carry the 1 and... I've been here the whole time! In cap spirit!

Astros 3-0 since I started front-running,

 

Astros have featured top notch gear for a long minute.

Race for wildcard !!

 

I like Seattle's chances at getting that 2nd WC spot. They are the second best team in this division by a good margin imo.

 

That's 11 in a row for the Astros, who improve to 42-16 -- including 22-6 on the road. The 7-8-9 hitters drove in six runs in the 7-3 win over the Royals. Here's a great number from ESPN Stats & Info: Houston's bottom three hitters are batting .285 and slugging .502 on the season -- that's better than the MLB average for 3-4-5 hitters (.265/.459). Yes, the Astros are good.

On MLB Network they just said Springer is hitting over .600 with RISP and two outs.

 

If the Astros go .500 the rest of the way, still will be a 92 win team

 

94. 104 games left/2 + 42 = 94.

 

That is why Aoki needed to go for 2B. If George had 1-3 with 1 out, he'd have GIDP.

 

I actually felt it in my loins that he was gonna hit a HR there. Did you guys hear the announcer? After the botched double play - "This Astros team is really good at capitalizing on mistak... YULI HITS IT WAY BACK!"

 

Or we just continue playing .724 ball and pass the Mariners for most wins with 117.

 

0.724 ball is so boring...
