Why were they allowed to celebrate when there was a game the next day? Also why celebrate when we have unfinished business to win the division?

They celebrated under the theory we may not do anything else good this year and we need to take every chance to have fun.  Pretty much that is what they said.  Hyde went to to the older guys and asked them.

Man that was ugly and quick.

Heston is hetting acclimated! He's heating up!

This Kjerstad kid is pretty good.

Time for AS to break out.

[Moose Milligan]

Seeing eye single, but it works!

[oriolediehard]

Santander is long overdue!

[Moshagge3]

Texas loses to Boston. They follow the four-game sweep of Toronto with four straight losses. Astros can smell blood.

[Billy F-Face3]

That 1st pitch to Santander could have been blasted

[forphase1]

Kjerstad is going to be good. 

[Mooreisbetter27]

Santander has been really going after high pitches recently and not doing anything with them. 

[Moshagge3]

Just don't ground into a DP. Let Gunnar come up.

He has been taking hangers in the zone and attacking high fastballs.

Is it worth losing today for it?  It's OK if it didn't affect today's game.

Knew as soon as something bad happened folks were going to blame the celebrating.

Tony's back in this at bat!
