ball was fair
Bregman was never tagged
Bregman was in the baseline alley when the ball hit him in the helmet
run scores
you can't make this **** up
and Collin McHugh gets the win

While I'm sure it's happened before, I've never seen that at the major league level.
MLB Central was talking about him this morning, literally said "Giles still has power but maybe he shouldn't throw right down the middle"JusHappy2BeHere said:
Giles.... no lead is safe

I've always had a lot of respect for them As. Hats off, they brought it.
That was wild though. I don't think I've ever seen a game end that way, I've seen crazy plays before but not to walk it off.
Lol I would have just wrote E2 and left it alone.
FWIW, Giles only has 2 Ls on the year and 12 saves.
True, but I don't like what he does to my blood pressure sometimes. One reason Giles only has 2 L's is because Hinch has bailed him out more than a couple timesGoldMind said:

I'd have to really dig deep to find out how many losses he's contributed to. I'm certainly not saying criticism is undeserved, I just think it's over blown. Every pitcher on the roster except maybe Sipp has **** the bed at least once this year. Same for the Yankees and redsox.
Welp, Hinch don't play.
Giles sent down. Perez up.

Oh wow.
I called in to Casey Stern's show on MLB network radio this afternoon. I asked if he thought we had to go look for a bullpen arm or roll with what we have. Said we have to at least try. At the very least try to find someone internal. Perhaps that's what we're doing with Perez.
That may fix Giles' issues.GoldMind said:

Hope so. Giles has had issues this year, but I remember when he was a lock-down closer, and hope he gets back to form.D. C. Bear said:That may fix Giles' issues.GoldMind said:

Perez didn't do too bad in his debut. Gave up a hit or 2 in a non-save situation. 0.00 ERA (not counting the run Harris just coughed up)
Idk why but this makes me feel better:
Yankees are 10-2 against the Stros and Indians. They're 5-5 vs the Orioles....

Easier path to the World Series ... the #1 or the #2 seed?
If the Astros get the #1 seed ...
vs. the Yankees
vs. the Red Sox
If the Astros get the #2 seed ...
vs. the Indians
@ the Red Sox
The #2 seed clearly has the easier path to the ALCS. But considering how important having the potential Game 7 at home is in the ALCS round, I would go with the #1 seed having the easier path. But it's close.

I'm really not as scared of NY as other folks. Boston? That's a battle.
Schwarber needed bonus time to beat Bregman by 1....I'm not mad. That's great for him, wow.
wow.... does that kid compete!
and I love the way tthe Astros Teammates were all over him
I love the kids on this team

Was very pumped in the last minute for Bregman. Good showing.
I honestly didn't think Bregman would show. Proved me wrong. A few feet short from tying Schwarber.

Go Stros, we run this league.

Angels led off the 8th with a hit, so now it's just about keeping the shutout.
Shutout gone
