    One other thing thats pissing me off about this game is that Whole Foods advertisement behind the plate. Lower prices, same high standards.
    Why didn't you charge those lower prices from the get go. Still 14.00 per pound for deli ham. Idiots.

    No offense, hitting into double plays, and this terrible ump is making for a very hard game to watch...

    The Mea Kulpa Incident. The post game is going to be more entertaining than how the team has been playing.

    @J.R. Can you confirm that Cole ordered room service and chocolate lava cake was on the menu?

    So we’re gonna be coming home at 2-5. Three game series against Oakland. We need to at least win the series. If you lose that series then you’re inching toward legitimate concern about where this team is headed. Especially given the fact that our first month or so is a fairly rough schedule. I’m not panicking yet, but like I said, if we lose the series to Oakland then there’s definitely more reason for concern.

    I’m not concerned, just annoyed. The offensive performance to start the season has been atrocious. Honeymoon start to the season is over - they need to start delivering.

    4.5 games out of first place, :( 15 runs scored in 7 games. At least Red Sox is worst than the Stros, they going to be 1-6 after tonight. Manager knows his team is in deep hole when he cooked himself with the ump. Home-cooking couldn't come fast enough.

    Cole was fine. Odd game and the umpiring was a total ****ing joke. Unreal people like that can keep their jobs.

    Hopefully, this will piss the team off enough to start winning.

    Time to put the big boy pants on and hit the damn ball!

    Is Stanton afflicted with Bob Dole syndrome or is the ball always in his hand as a trademark kinda thing?

    There definitely needs to be some game tampering fine for that ump. Dude obviously knew he made a bad call and when he thre hinch out he made more calls on purpose. They showed a Cole “ball” down the middle before that White low strike. He was calling it one way. Dude needs to be reprimanded. Blum said it, you expect there to at least always be integrity. That was childish.
