Guess I struggle to remember if the Astros fans and announcers (not the org, like that loser who taunted the female reporter) adored Osuna as much as these people love Chapman.

Chapman, haha.
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.

Astros broadcasters definitely gushed over stats about Osuna when he was good

Glad to see him get tanked by Marte anyway. What an AB by Pham to, you'd think, take him out of the running for tomorrow's usage.

Here's tonight's blue-star classic post from I-45 North if you guys are still up.

Smith has been a liability the past several outings. Earlier in the season he might put a guy on but I typically felt him in control. Lately not so much.

Happy to see Chapman coming to close it out.

Imagine being Montgomery, pulled at 92 pitches during a 4-hit shutout only to watch the closer give up the tying run.

Jmo has been really good for them.

Get better quality innings, and you'll get quantity.

So many walks and unearned runs allowed this year

That's who I wanted the Astros to get. Happy with JV but I like Montgomery. Especially over Flaherty.

I feel for these pitchers with the extra innings rules man. Seward gets the soft ground ball from Jankowski to 2B and it's a runner on 3B with 1 out.

I feel the way about this crap that I used to feel about shootouts in high school soccer matches - you play this intense style of soccer for 80 minutes and then the match is decided in the equivalent of a slam dunk contest.

Better than the 2 point contest in college football now

"Chapman, despite the home run, really impressive in 2 inning"

Rangers broadcast crew is something else

It's so stupid when the home team doesn't bunt the run over to the start the 10th

I'm in the minority ... I love the extra innings rules for regular season. Not trying to stay up super late on a regular season game and it is non stop tension in a close one and completely fair to both teams. Definitely becomes more of a roll of the dice, but both teams put themselves in that position by not winning in 9.

Well, when you leave it right over the middle of the plate, that's what happens. Didn't even try to bust him inside…

Dumb intentional walk IMO when you do it to the go ahead run ... should at least pitch around and try to get the chase there

Based on statistics, games going past 11 innings happened only like 2% of the entire season the past several seasons. MLB said they put the rule in to keep games going into the 12th inning and beyond.

They put a "fix" in for a problem that occurs 2% of the time.

Actually, they haven't won one game that they've trailed when losing in the 9th. Luck would suggest a lot of those kinds of wins.

Eh, that was a good piece of hitting. I'm not sure why Gurriel dove for the ball. It cost that extra run.

Pitcher left it right over the middle of the plate. Lowe is a good hitter and will crush those pitches. Poor pitch location on that pitch.

They may have hosed him at home but I would've liked to see them try.

These awful announcers had a conniption at a bad call in the top half of the inning but had nothing to say about two in the bottom.
