Correction. Saturday 6:10 and Sunday 12:05 pm. That sounds better, get away days are early..
I hear Quantrill takes no prisoners. ??
So were the first two pitchers against the Astros' two best just sacrificial lambs to get to this game? They both looked like batting practice for the Stros. That grand slam pitch looked like T-ball.

The G's starting rotation has some holes in it now... Civale has been out for a bit, and Plesac has really struggled and has the worst luck.

The Astros are loaded with good pitching right now. And that kid who came in with one out with bases loaded when it was 8-3 was just plain wicked to the last batter in that inning. That strike 3 was thrown at the batters knees and then took a right turn up and in to the left inside corner. It locked him up so bad he was shakin' it seemed. I told my wife that was the most wickedly devilish pitch I'd ever seen. I don't know any hitter that would have even attempted to put a bat on it because it looked like a sure ball way inside when it left the pitchers' hand.

Franmil Reyes has been designated for assignment.
From a 30+ homer guy to gone.
Before the season started, I got a Guardians shirt and had Reyes' name and number on it, because I thought Jose Ramirez was going to be traded away.
That shirt didn't age well.

He didn't make it as a base stealer ?
The designated hitter is designated for assignment. Cleveland needed big bats he came up short and not that good with a glove. Gone forever ? Signed through 2022. Seriously we all were thinking he might break through.

...... On the great sports network peacock. I'm listening to Hammy on WKBN 570, great signal.
.... 0-0 bottom 5. Good pitcher's duel....so far. And a HR ! CLE 1-0.
.... CLE. 1-0, bottom 8 now top 9 ! Tristin McKenzie pitched a gem. 18 in a row. Clase time.
....
..... CLE 1-0 FINAL. What a game. McKenzie best outing ever. Clase best closer. 22,688 saw it.
NO GAME Monday. First day off since the All Star Break. Whew ! I enjoyed this one.
★ CLE 1-8-0 LOB 9. HOU 0-2-0 LOB 2. An unreal pitching game, Maile 1st HR in 3 years.

They did not carry the game here, but reading the box score I see they gave two of the best Astros the day off and brought each in as pinch hitters one at bat only. Still it was an excellent match-up just like I thought it would be between those two pitchers. Astros are rotating the day off now as they should be with such a big lead over 2nd place Seattle. Cleveland however is in the middle of a dogfight with Minn. and Chisox from here on out though.

After getting their taints handed to them Thursday and Friday, it's great to see the kids rally and spiit the series.

Strangest thing, I was just typing 0-0 bottom 5. Great pitcher's duel....so far. And Maile was up, crack home run over the 17' wall. [I'm thinking Maile ? Maile ? Hammy says first HR in 3 years...(me, not with the Indians)....he said 2019.] CLE 1-0.
I was thinking maybe this game would break up a bit....WRONG ! The pitchers dug in right through McKenzie and 18 straight and Clase time. He's becoming a lock down 94-100 mph with movement closer. Whoa. From Play ball to Clase it was better than advertised.
