The record for scoreless inning streak is 48 byth Cubs and the old Philidelphia Athletics.

Diaz was safe at home and that would have won the game. Brown getting out of the runner on third with no outs was amazing.

Well the Astros just wasted excellent pitching performances minus Ort who has been a weak link all season Now 28 innings without a run. Pretty pathetic!

Walk off walk in 10th by Detroit 1-0 absolutly crazy. I thin 28 scoreless innings for Stros but still 1 1/2 up. Good pitching and defense by both teams until the 10th.

No more crybabies? Wanna tissue? Why do you want the war to end? Because you care about Ukraine? Not…..

Astros lose 1-0 on a two out bases loaded walk. smh

He’s a bad example. Unless you’re counting the 7 wars he ended. 😂 Trump has so far claimed responsibility for peace in several international conflicts, including between the Democratic Republic of the Congo and the Republic of Rwanda, between India and Pakistan, between Serbia and Kosovo, between Egypt and Ethiopia, and for “doing the Abraham Accords.” I believe he is crying out for help and looking for an off ramp.

They had a JV in Kirbyville?

Mariners lose 6-4

You would not have anyone on the forums other than baby king loyalists.

Houston and Detroit headed to extras tied 0-0.

I for one would like him to enforce pressure on Russia. Try applying what Lindsey Graham suggested.

Good point!

As long as China is buying massive amounts of Russian oil, Putin has no reason to stop, and Trump doesn’t seem to want to impose major tariffs on China while trying to negotiate a trade deal. I’m guessing Putin is well aware of the box Trump is actually in.

Speaking with Fox & Friends Tuesday morning about his efforts to negotiate a peace deal between Ukraine and Russia, the president claimed that he had settled seven wars. I’ve solved seven wars. We ended seven wars,” Trump said “I thought this would be one of the easier ones, and this has turned out to be the toughest one.” India, Pakistan, these were big ones, also. All big ones. And some going for 31, 32 years. One for 35 years,” he continued. “I got them all done. But this one is the one that is the most difficult, and I thought it would be an easy one. I hope President [Vladimir] Putin is gonna be good, and if he’s not it’s going to be a rough situation. And I hope that President [Volodymyr] Zelenskiy will do what he has to do. He has to show some flexibility also. The thing is a mess.” I’ll have two of what ever this con man is drinking. 😂 Dementia is real. He is declining fast. Time for the autopen. Midterms are coming.

I question any list that doesn’t include NOLA.

Bring in the National Guard! 😂 as the con man would say. Say it ain’t so for the Red state.

Shameful! Corpus Christi #20 Houston #27 [Hidden Content]

All bets are off if the court rules Trump can’t impose tariffs in the manner he has used. I’d expect that decision to come out by mid to late next month.

Correct. You don’t want 0% inflation.

Many things affect prices. Wages, government spending, disease among crops/livestock/poultry, weather, war, energy, tariffs… Inflation is never caused by a single item problem. The current tariffs aren’t effecting prices at this time. This is a shell game being played by producers/sellers to squeeze a little more profit, and a general excuse for poor company performance. Good management teams are doing just fine as the markets attest. Tariff costs will hit. But, mainly Brazil. The others are already incorporated into costs. The effective, all-inclusive tariff rate is about 13-15%. Producers are basically absorbing the 10%. With the passage of the BBB, real wage increases (increases minus inflation) should wind up around $3500-$10k/yr. for the average family making ~$70k/year. Obviously, those not paying income tax now will have minimal benefit. That’s where increased medical costs may hurt them. Medical costs will need to be addressed, or there will be major sticker shock. I’d expect produce, coffee, chocolate, and beef all to rise in price. But beef is as much due to the screwworm invasion, drought, and low domestic cattle numbers as it is tariffs on Brazil. We only import 20% of our beef from Brazil. Shelf stable items should remain about the same as what they are currently. I still expect a 50 basis point cut by the Fed in September. I could be wrong. But, they’re behind the 8 ball as I mentioned earlier.

We don't want 0%. 2%-2.5% is the target inflation. Trump has reduced Bidens hyperinflation from 9% down to his 2.7%. Still a tiny bit of work to do but it came WAY down from Biden. Gas is very cheap for summer driving too. It normally goes way up but it did not this summer. Yeah, Trump did that!

Biden had the worst inflation in 40 years, but it wasn’t an issue? Typical lib.

We heard inflation for 4 years like that was the issue.. obviously it never was, supposedly it's back to where we were pre pandemic yet hardly any changes in prices.. arguably worse in areas

The Fed’s target rate is 2%. There will never be 0% inflation.
