Walks hurt, but we still have five runs to work with. Close this **** out.
This inning isn't going to help with Dusty trusting Kent

I was thinking the same thing.
There are times I wish we had some brutal fans out in the outfield...that dumba** on the front row should be getting abused by the other fans. Sure looked like Tucker could've had a play on that if the personification of Axe Body Spray doesn't get in the way.
BALLGAME!
Great way to start the home stand!
Kent hasn't pitched in about 20 years, so he's a little rusty. When you have a eight run lead, you have to throw strikes and not walk people, though. Let them put the ball in play.
Anyway, he finished strong and the team looks great.
Y'all have a great night.

Manaea's no hit bid is over in the 8th. Hope the Rays open it up now

One for all the computer nerds to enjoy
Great night at MMP. Bought Mrs. Marvin the Kendra Scott Astros hat and necklace for Mother's Day (in addition to a Louis Vuitton purse, of course); wore my Doran jersey; spent the evening with her, my daughter and SIL; got liquored up enough to add a Cruz rainbow jersey to the collection; saw a Tucker hit and an Astros win. That's a good night in anyone's scorebook, boys. Let's get em again tomorrow!
Tampa Bay tied it up vs the A's in the 8th inning. Manaea was pulled. If the Rays win we are 1 game behind for the division lead
Angels are beating up on the Dodgers. 6-1 in the 6th
update: 7-1

Pretty good game. I turned it on right before Manaea lost the no hitter. Hope the Rays can pull it out.bearkatag15 said:

Only 130 more to go (lose), baby.
Damn... A's walk it off
Crap. Walkoff homer for the A's.

As Marvin said - great night for Astro baseball! My first game since Game 7 vs Nats. Roof open tonight at MMP and weather damn near perfect. Masks enforced at entry but not the rest of the night. Maybe 10% of crowd had on during the game. Tip of the cap from George. Correa bomb. Yuli bomb. Lots of runs. Good guys win. Friday Night Fireworks. Such a fun game. Great to be back at the ballpark.

They mentioned on the broadcast last night the attendance was 25k. That's a good sign that they have raised the capacity since the home opener. That's about what 60%?
I'm guessing raise it by 10% each month until full is their plan

Isn't that like their 30th walk off already this season?
A's are 6 games over .500 and a -12 run diff. One way or the other that's not sustainable.
They are also 8-2 in 1 run games and 2-0 in extra innings. That's a whole lot of close games already.

Aren't they supposed to have a really good pen? Probably helps push them in favor of winning more close games.
Maybe not to the extreme they've reached, though.

Rangers 2015 (6?) all over again. We kept waiting for the regression to come but it didn't until the next year.
Pitching well late you can sustain. That's just a solid pen. Winning games late by scoring a run in the 8th/9th/extra innings is pure random luck.
I'd also argue that -12 scoring differential and winning records are unsustainable. Regardless of how good your bullpen is. You're giving up lots of runs and not scoring a lot. Pieces are just falling in place for the games they're winning.
I guess the caveat is they could have a couple pitchers that just constantly get shellacked and they throw them out there when then games out of reach. But not likely
