I think he was probably safe but I expect the umps thought he might have grazed the helmet with the tag prior to that shot.

The Astros took at worst two of three from the Red Sox to match the A's taking two of three from the Yankees, so still in decently good shape

Also the bats appear to be waking up a bit. Too bad Bad Keuchel has re-emerged from the aether

To be fair this is a series between the two by far and away best teams in baseball. It feels like a heavyweight fight. I haven't watched a minute of the Packers vs Bears game, too glued to this.

Don't have a good feeling about this bottom 9th.

Much clearer that the A's dude (whose name I don't remember) was out at home as was called.

MLB hates the Astros because they're wife beating racists.

At least get the drat 2 seed Astros. Don't let the A's catch up. I'd appreciate if the team with the fourth best record in baseball wasn't right on our rear end in the division.
