I thought that if Cowser had charged that, he'd have had a real shot at getting Altuve on a (shorter) throw to third. 

One out-you got to get to that ball but he plays a very deep center.  But-Altuve knows his arm, guys are gonna run on him until he is more accurate.

You usually don't get booed on the road unless you're a very good player or you're infamous like John Rocker. Also Altuve has been the Astros franchise player the last decade. Cheating scandal is overblown in my opinion as if other teams aren't gaming the system to some degree.

There is just so much pearl clutching in baseball.

Oh no, folks were using steroids? 

Oh no, folks were stealing signs?

Oh no, folks were using spider tack?

We had no idea.

Given a gift for the 2nd time in 3 innings with your best hitters up and of course they do nothing with it. The 1st inning could have changed the complexion of the game. They just can’t hit with RISP, it is awful.

3 for last 38 with RISP. .079 AVG. One of those was Urias’ chopper in NY and another was Henderson’s jam shot that Nimmo should have caught. That number could very easily be 1-38. Just crazy how bad the offense has been recently.

What was the other one?  Santander's grand slam?
