O's Complete The Sweep (Game Recap)

Matt Harvey wasn’t terrible, and really nice job by Scott, Fry and Sulser out of the pen (combined 4.2 IN, 1 BB, 1 H, 0 R, 5 K). 

But what a bad play by Astros third baseman Garcia in the first inning. Mountcastle hits a hard grounder to Garcia’s backhand and he doesn’t try all that hard to stop it, it goes past his glove into the corner for a 2-run double and Mountcastle later scores.

Something's up with Garcia. He's also the one who was beaming a grin, almost giggling, after giving up the 9th-inning homer to Wynns the night before.

Astro's will probably go on a tear now. They had to show they can be beaten by a bad team before the magic returns. *sarcasm*
