look at this lineup

its almost like Ricky wants the sweep

lets go rodon

>>77565181
The White Sox have a reason to hope that doesn't involve the owner dying.

>Brad Peacock starting for the stros
I think we might have a chance this time.

dat slider

hope hes got it the whole night

>>77565181
First game of the season for the Bears doesn't feel as hype as the first game of Spring Training.

walkcada at it again

>>77565495
I saw a highlight reel at the stadium last night that featured a Moncada walk.

That nigga looked out to me.

>>77565596
He was safe by a mile

>already an error
JUST

>>77565630
It was ruled a hit

>>77565641
Was it really? I have it muted. I realize it was a bad bounce, but still.

>>77565673
More because of Avi's speed than the bounce, yes

>>77565524

it was so embarrassing when they were showing highlights from games they lost by 6 or more after the 1-9 stretch

>errorcada

Now THAT'S an error.

fucking pls

Why the fuck are these morons being greedy? We could have had loaded bases with one out.

>>77565880
he had all kinds of time too, probably

>>77565894
white sox are fucking horrendous at throwing out base stealers

Astros what the fuck is wrong with your team? You're supposed to competing with the Dodgers this October

>>77565924
It looks like they're trying too hard.

>>77565924
We've been fairly mediocre after the All Star break and recently we've just flat out sucked.

>>77566853
>13 games ahead in the division
Astros aren't the White Sox in terms of choking division leads. The Astros are fine.

Is Andershits head even in the game?

melky has been killing it with the royals. continuing where he left off here really

>>77566893
It's not just about winning the division. It's about going all the way. Right now, our #1 and #2 pitchers both suck ass. That's in sharp contrast to the start of the season when they were both lights out. I'm not convinced we'll even get past the first round in the playoffs.

I didn't like these new Astros uniforms when they came out, but they are growing on me. They need to use more orange and less blue.

>>77566966
I honestly think they're coasting.

>>77567012

>>77567012

they look ok, it's really hard to fuck up an mlb away uniform

>>77567043
I wish that was all it was. That game Keuchel pitched the other day is not "coasting." That was a meltdown.

Give it to me straight.
Will Eloy Jimenez become the all time home run king?

More terrible Astros baserunning

wew he's thrown like 10 pitches over the last 2 innings, could he actually go 9?

>going for a double when you aren't even close

No, but he's a beast.

fucking embarrassing

fucking hell this team

Good, now they can't meme bunt it.

Fuck off tim

>>77568536
oh except strike 1 on anderson of course, but nothing that they swung at

anyway they should kill themselves immediately

Cursing out loud for everyone to see isn't going to make you better Andershit.

Engel pls...

well he probably would have walked anyway, unlike every other faggot on this team narvaez rarely swings at ball which this pitcher is throwing nothing but

PLEASE DON'T FUCK THIS UP GREGERSON

Fun fact went to h.s. with luke gregerson, was on the football and basketball team with him.

>more pitches in this at bat than in the entire last 2 innings combined

>>77568779
Did you suck his dick?

>>77568794
No, he was short and a little bitch in h.s.

>>77568821
So he sucked yours?

wew

yolmer's arm looks like shit when he plays short but looks great at third

>mfw someone tries to tell me third basemen need better arms than shortstops
>mfw no face

jpetty pls

Welp, please save the game Giles.

I don't know how the hell Marsinick randomly hit that home run earlier. He's been batting like shit today.

I missed most of the game(s). Rodon and Trubisky future GOATs?

>>77569330
They both looked really good

>still no offense
Save us manlet

>>77569330
rodon didnt K as much today but going 8 IP scattering 8 hits and only 2 runs is good

also Moncada game tying HR in the 9th and NickyD still hitting

even if we lose ill be happy with this game

sure hope we don't though. clip pls

Wow, he actually made it.

better throw might have had him

that was a ball wew

Don't fuck it up bp please

So Clipp has been great for us. Did Coop fix him?

I still have an interest in all chiteams cept the cubs obviously

yes even the fire

>>77569475
Well the Bears and bulls suck as bad as the white sox but baseball is just a nice and fun game to watch regardless. Football and basketball are awful to watch without a team to get excited about.

>>77569475
I understand football and basketball, but not even hockey? Damn.

Baseball is literally the only sport I bother to follow as well.

>>77569504
I've been getting into Formula 1 which is weird since I've never given a shit about motorsports.

>>77569475
I never have. I like baseball because I grew up playing and watching it. Every other sport is boring because I have no connection to it. I was briefly into tennis because of Baby Steps, but that didn't last long.

>>77569516
how bout that fire home record
also #2 in the league
how did that even happen? wow

might have something to do with it also, only played baseball and soccer. I don't live in chicago so I don't have that connection anymore either. sox were always my number 1. Also I lied, I also watch soccer, no specific teams I really care about though, and sometimes meme sports like tennis, golf and cycling. only if there's no baseball though
