    Pretty perfect game to take a three year old to. Was over before he got too bored and got to see a couple homers. Thanks @UTPhil2006 for the suggestion about the first game certificate, had plenty of

    I’m just glad I survived another season of being the official thread starter. Thank you all for your continued support in this emotional time.   In more ways than one with tonight’s result:

Go ahead and hang one so we can see it hit 500ft 

How we feeling?

No way we blow this one right?

Never in doubt

Salvage!

Wow have to make it so fucking difficult...

Not scoring a guy from 3rd < 2 outs is my Augie "HOW DO YOU GET PICKED OFF 1ST BASE??!!"  tipping point and this team does it so fucking much it's driving me insane. 

Bregman needs to join Abreu in Florida so we have an even 50 million in salary in the fucking toilet

Better than our daily loss I guess.

1-run win.  The worm has turned.

Hopefully being relegated to the 6 hole is what Bregman needed to get his bat going again. Also a good day for Alvarez who is still trying to work his way up to a .250 BA

I can’t believe how hard it is for this team to get a fucking win. 

 

Ok- I want everyone to ponder what happened in the third. It’s like a fucking baseball riddle that’s almost impossible to do. 
a team gets a double, two singles, no Tootblans and no double plays and manages to score 0 runs- how does that happen?

if you can correctly answer that you move on to question 2 which the astros did earlier this year- a team ended an inning with only 2 plate appearances in the top half of an inning- how does that happen?

For the second question, the only way for just 2 plate appearances to occur in the top of an inning would be the manfred special extra inning rules where there’s a man on 2nd to start the inning. And yea, I remember that shit show

Leadoff 2B.

Infield dribbler for a single. Runner stays at 2B. 2 on, 0 Out.

Shallow fly out. No one advances. 2 on, 1 out. 

Sharply hit single to shallow OF. Runner held at 3B. Bases loaded, 1 out. 

K (swinging at what would have been ball 4).

Fly out.

0/3 with a man on third and less than two outs?

We just ain't very good right now.

Yordan Alvarez against breaking pitches

2023: .323 BA/.274 xBA, .583 SLG/.545 xSLG, 33.3% GB%

2024: .214 BA/.247 xBA, .238 SLG/.368 xSLG, 42.4% GB%

We haven’t even played the Angels or A’s

(or White Sox for that matter).

They’ll get back in the thick of things.

 

I’m eying the last two weeks in August as make or break.

We’ll know what we have in LMJ and Garcia by then when we have a 7 game road trip to Baltimore and Philly before returning home for 4 against KC who I think are going to be pesky all year

YORDAN 116.8 MPH

SINGLETON 115.4 MPH

THE ASTROS ARE THE FIRST TEAM WITH 2 115+ MPH HR IN THE SAME INNING UNDER STATCAST (2015)

Alvarez (who also doubled later on) and Singleton became the only teammates to hit 115+ mph home runs in the same inning since Statcast began tracking in 2015. Before this, the Yankees were the only team to hit multiple 115+ mph homers in the same game (doing it four times, most recently on June 6, 2022, thanks to Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton).

That’s the kind of data that to me screams “he’s injured”.  
 

He’s gearing up for speed but can’t down-shift.
