I wonder if there are odds on the number of times the TV coverage shows a closeup of Kate Upton, aka Mrs. Verlander, in tonight's game.

I’ll take the over of 100

 

[Tom McAndrew]

well that's an inauspicious start for Thor, as Altuve hits a double to lead off the game, and an error on Marsh allows him to get to 3rd.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

And then Pena hits a single against a drawn-in infield, Altuve scores, and Pena gets a single (probably an out if playing at normal depth and conceding the run). 1-0, Astros

When do we start watching the birds ffs

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Thor works out of situation (helped that JT threw out Pena on a steal attempt at 2nd). 1-0, Astros, heading to the bottom of the 1st

Perhaps when she's breastfeeding

 

[laKavosiey-st lion]

Have they shown her yet?

 

[Tom McAndrew]

And Schwarber leads it off for the Phils with a Schwar-Bomb. Tied at 1!!!

I love the Phils wearing the powder blues, even though they’re at home! The Astros should be wearing their vintage rainbow jerseys, which they wore at home.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Have they shown her yet?

I only caught the last 10 minutes of the Fox pregame show, and I think they showed her 1 time during that.

Once is all I need.

See why Giselle just don’t have it?

1-1 after 1

Encouraged with how Thor's looked here in the second inning

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Thor with a 1-2-3 inning in the top of the 2nd.

 

[RyanSnyder]

Four Ks through 2. I'll take it.

[Tom McAndrew]

Phils loaded the bases with 2 outs in the bottom of the 2nd, but Hoskins strikes out to end the inning

 

[laKavosiey-st lion]

This game is super exciting. Both pitchers duel and baserunners. Really perfect.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Thor with another 1-2-3, in the top of the 3rd, though none were Ks. Still 1-1

 

[Tom McAndrew]

now let's break the record:

Phils get 2 on in the bottom of the 3rd, but fly out to right to end the inning. Still 1-1

[Relayer]

Raise your hand if you would rather have Segura in that 7th spot right now. Not going to argue with Rob, but he seems very stubborn.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

ugh, Pena hits a solo HR in the top of the 4th. Perhaps sending Thor out for a 2nd time thru the lineup wasn't such a good idea.

He had an 0-2 count but like so many other Phillies pitchers, they unfortunately seem to have difficulty putting batters away from such counts.

Nola certainly had troubles when he got 2 strikes on the Astros. Thor's 2-strike pitch which Pena hit for the HR was a breaking ball that was middle of the zone (after throwing a few pitches with 2 strikes that were either outside or inside).

2-1, Astros heading to the bottom of the 4th

 

[Nits74]

Have a feeling that just trying to survive isn't going to work for him.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

 

[Nits74]

I wish he was waiting on that last curve. Very hittable.

 

[RyanSnyder]

Love what I'm seeing from Brogdon here.
