  1. Some fun stats: 33 TB and 4 XBH are dead last in MLB. 9 total runs and 8 RBI tied for dead last. .175 AVG and .496 OPS are 29/30, trailing only ATL's abysmal .144 and .474.
  2. Looks like most of the state should get some more showers Friday/Saturday ahead of a late-season cold front pushing through over the weekend. Seeing highs in the 60's, lows in the 40's Sunday and Monday.
  3. Dude just couldn't put away those first 3 batters. Got to 2 strikes in all 3 counts and then they just kept fouling shit off. Not a good performance of course, but buckling down to get the next 3 guys to K/Sac Fly/K is pretty close to ideal when you're looking at bases juiced, no outs. and tenuous 3-0 lead.
  4. After Game 1/162, Astros solidly in first place, Rangers languishing in the cellar with the Angels.
  5. No offense to Hader, but I don't mind at all if he doesn't get a save opportunity today. Gimme 1 or 2 insurance runs.
  6. I was about to really sweat that Nimmo AB but luckily a buddy at the game spoiled it for me. Seems like TV feed is about 40 seconds behind.
  7. Not complaining about getting guys on base, but we need to land a knockout punch. Ready for an XBH after all these walks and singles.
  8. I'm glad Jake is relatively fast and that ball was hit relatively soft.
  9. Will age like mayonnaise in the sun, but that's a problem for another man at another time.
  10. Yep, while their brisket is totally skippable and sometimes downright bad, CM ribs with their red glaze are still a treat. Always grab a few bottles of sauce to go for friends/co-workers.
  11. Let's get back to winning on Opening Day. It sucked dropping Game 1 for the first time in like a decade last year, especially given that it led to a 4-game sweep.
  12. Supply has been increasing the past 2 weeks or so, which means prices are finally starting to come down to earth and vendors are taking a little later in the day to sell out. Starting to see field run at sub-$3 though weekend prices remain elevated. Couple more weeks of moderate weather and things should be looking much better by mid-April.
  13. Wife and I taking our annual spring trip to check out the old stomping grounds in San Marcos and spending the weekend in Wimberley, which means lunch tomorrow on the way up will be my once-a-year visit to City Market. Yes, there are plenty of better BBQ joints, but I still enjoy CM for what it is and it's tradition at this point.
  14. A nice steady 30+ hour soaking is just what the doctor ordered. My landscaping is just starting to come back to life after the winter die off and lawn is finally waking up from hibernation. Sprinklers get to catch a nice break this weekend.
