    And they'll have to do some fancy infield shuffling if they pinch hit for him (or lose the DH) unless Pena can give them a few innings.

    I missed it. Why isn't Pena playing? He's out of COVID protocol right?

    Not pretty and probably not something they want but it would allow them to keep the DH.

    I noticed there’s no one else to bat for him. After that play he made he’s due for a hit.

    Not hitting into a DP counts as a productive ab for Dubon.

    I wish Dubon had been tossed for his two-hole hitting.

    And more importantly, bringing Alvarez up to the plate.

    More futility by the Astros this inning. 1 more left to not suck.
