    Just left two on base. Astros will have to do better with runners in scoring position if they want to make it to the playoffs, much less do something when they get there.

    If the catcher's name was Bahn, this would be perfect.

    That's just weird, they're totally different hitters.

    Agreed, who was the last Astro that had a swing like that that you can think of?

    Such an underrated player. One of the best defensive players in the league.

    Athletics reddit game thread is entertaining almost as much as the game

    If the A's getting ****ing blown out by the third inning against our most hated and direct rival, chasing a playoff berth on the downward slope of the season doesn't give us a justifiable reason to be pissed, I don't know what does.

    I can see that but it's still Carlos Beltran for me.

    I'll be the first admit that I ride his butt a lot. I get so pissed at times with him at the plate but he just does the damn thing in the field.

    Ward, Anthony, Phil Plantier? Derek May? Not saying they were good, I'm not even sure that their swings were comparable, but off the top of my head as far as Astros go.... gonna have to do some research.

    I won't tag Clutch this time. But tone it down, there could be kids reading this thread.

    Not that there is anything wrong with that.
