Series Thread: Texas comes home to face an old friend in Nelson Cruz.

[RevSader]

Moving on to a home series with another AL West opponent. Texas is gonna finish their division schedule by June, because fuck the rest of the AL West!

 

[Godstree]

At least we are starting this series on a win streak

Is a series win too much to ask?

I hope we do because that means I'll get to see us win at least 1 in person.

I just finished the game. Odor had some hard hit outs, and EA continued to swing the bat well today.

Now guys if we win tomorrow that's something called a winning streak. It has been known to happen.

Another thing.... How in the hell can you assume a fielder is going to catch the ball headed into the stands? That's a ridiculous rule.

Unless the fan physically impeded the player you shouldn't be able to. That was a really bad interpretation of that rule. He ran past the ball and was out of position. I jokingly said the fan kept Odor from catching Green's pop up because he pushed the fence padding and reached out for the ball.

I got so pissy with the way we were playing today, I left and went fishing. Imagine my surprise to see we got a win. haha Jokes on me.

And why is Banister insisting on going with Feliz for 2 innings?

You will have to ask the bench coach, because as you remember Banny got tossed. I don't know who made the call in the end. Might have been Maddux once Banny was gone. I was worried for his health more than worrying about the score, but he actually hit 95.

Prince, Beltre, and Mitch all came through in the 9th. It was nice.

Thanks. And good to hear about the 9th.

Nightcrawler is gonna disappear if Mitch keeps this up.

Sounds like you need to go fishing tomorrow night.

If he doesn't, I'm sure we won't let him hear the end of it.

First half Mitch is usually pretty damn good. Just hope he can stay healthy, because he's one of the few you can count on right now.

Leo's homer swing was damn pretty. It was one of the best swings I've seen him take all year. He was able to get his hands around and keep a high and inside pitch fair while elevating it. Didn't know if it would clear the wall, but it just made it.

hahaha.....I won't rule it out. But Mother nature looks like she's getting ready to give us hell again tonight and tomorrow.

We may be fortunate to even get tomorrows game in.

I've had about two weeks straight of thunder storms in Houston. I am almost sad to see it go, because it's about to get humid and unbearable in the next few weeks.

Com'on Mitch com'on. LOL and kidding

Nor should we. My Lord, I've never seen a guy get a bone-on for a player like he has with Mitch. Especially one of our own. But oh well.

I'm glad you didn't watch today! Really am. If you'd seen Choo screw up that very catchable ball, right before the HR which tied the game, you might have destroyed your own property.

Swear, it seems like I wake up in Puerto Rico these days. Never seen this much rain. Last night was the first night in almost a week without storms, and the forecast tonight looks pretty poor.

Hah, I have that same feeling for Choo. I wish someone would destroy some of his property. Can start with his gloves and bats, because he's not using them! Man that dude really gets the blood all angry.
