    Ultimate baseball outcome. Your pitcher allowed half as many hits, and got beat by twice as many runs, on one pitch. Stupid game. Brown looked really good. Come on Bregman! You suck!

      Bregman added to his commanding pop-up lead of MLB

      Pop-ups and ground balls will get you beat 2-1 every time. We've owned Anderson forever .... but not today.

      A decent pitching performance wasted.

    Well on a different note, if the Astros plan on resigning Tucker it may cost them a lot more than it would have last offseason.

    I guess it’s a gamble for the front office, but he’s on track to easily have 40+ homers.

    King Tuck !!! I hope he’s the AL MVP, he’s an underrated, unappreciated badass.
    I miss the America I grew up in.

      I think after they took him to arbitration over the extra half mill he wanted, he is going where the big money takes him.

        The good thing is he's signed through 2025, so we'll at least get one more season out of him before the moving company arrives.

        On another note, if Bregman keeps this up, maybe they'll get to sign him at a discount.....LOL

          In the land of What If, if the Astros had swept the Angels, they would be in sole posession of 2nd place in the AL west today.

              Nice to see tens of dozens of the Oakland faithful show up for a Friday night game at beautiful Calasseum.

                A late night win. I had to check this morning, I didn't stay up.

                  Neither did this old man...haha.

                  Cool to see JV move into the top 10 in all-time strikeouts, glad he did it in the first 2 innings haha.

                  He's up there in rarefied air with those other 9 guys. With pitchers only going 5-6 innings these days, I doubt many will ever move into the top 10 again.
                  1. Nolan Ryan: 5,714
                  2. Randy Johnson: 4,875
                  3. Roger Clemens: 4,672
                  4. Steve Carlton: 4,136
                  5. Bert Blyleven: 3,701
                  6. Tom Seaver: 3,640
                  7. Don Sutton: 3,574
                  8. Gaylord Perry: 3,534
                  9. Walter Johnson: 3,515
                  10. Justin Verlander: 3,377

                    One thing is for sure, all those guys and anyone in the future will be riding in the caboose on the Ryan Express!

                      That's right. Also no hitters. He'll never be caught in those two catagories.

                        Compare that to #5 in innings pitched, guys that pitched both games of double headers back in the day. Pretty good stuff.

                          I can not understand why Dubon is batting 9th when his OPS is almost 200 pts better than Bregman.

                            4 hits. No extra base hits.
