IMO we need to send a couple of the starters packing.

Seems like the last few games we have started out behind and caught up or went ahead.  No 8 game series streak.

Series wins are great. However, a string of 10 wins would be nice.

I just want .500 by All Star break.

Current record is 43-46. Nine games remaining before break. Last 3 are against division leader Arlington. 6-3 will put us at .500.

It's doable.

Pitching duel until the 7th 1-1 then bullpen Okert and De Los Santos lose 3-1

[rupert3]

Yordan Alvarez number 28 and 29 with 29 being walk off for 10-8 major comeback hard fought win.

Hader wins

Javier 2 good relief innings

Went to pop fireworks with the grandkids and missed on heckuva comeback win. Some things are more important than sports. Having to pitch to Alvarez is usually bad for the other team. lol

[rupert3]

Well 4 hit 2-0 shutout Lambert win Hader save no 9

Paredes and Walker Dingers for the total.

I'll take it

I can't explain everything that happenrd in this 12-11 slugfest loss to Nats.  But what a game.

The two errors ended up being the difference in the game.

[rupert3]

Probably what we get for messing with the lineup all the time.  I though Allen was playing SS quite well.  In prior games.

With a 6-3 win today coupled with a 6-5 loss by the Mariners, Astros are now 2 games back.

[baddog]

Mariners lose again but the Astros lost also. Rangers and Mariners tied for 1st, Astros 2 games back.

[AggiesAreWe]

Astros with a 9-3 win over Arlington.

[rupert3]

Well not gonna be 500 at all break like we hoped but close, I'll take it 1 1/12 back

Astros are currently 2 games back of Texas.

Houston is 47-50, Rangers are 48-47.

[rupert3]

Yes sir I stand corrected again

[baddog]

Even though Wade hit the GS, Alvarez has been on fire. Peña got hit in the ribs. Hope he’s ok.

[rupert3]

Oh well all around bad pitching with pretty good hitting bullpen terrible Hade give up walkoff sng bottom 9 lose 6-5 Need to purge that bullpen.

I put both losses on King but that’s just me.
