Rendon would have stopped that grounder.

I don't think I've seen Rendon make 1 difficult backhanded play down the 3rd base line all season, so I don't believe that for a second. 

Way too many hits getting down the line.

The first 10 games or so of the season were a fluke weren't they...

I think the expectation of them being. .500 team was appropriate. It was fun to see the hit start but they are who they are

So far tonight, the announcers have made references to Pat Tabler and Mary Lou Retton.  Good way to appeal to the younger YouTube crowd...

Retton did gymnastics under Karolyi, and the Karolyi Sex Abuse Farm was located near Houston.

Albert is done. It time to have the talk with him about gracefully exiting.

F'n Pujols. Should be 1-0 right now.

Frustrating team.

Is Gubi talking into a dixie cup attached to a kite string?

[AngelsLakersFan]

At least Bregman got hit by a pitch...

[jsnpritchett]

I find it hard to believe that they have not been able to solve Gubi's audio issues yet.  It's comical at this point.

Too bad it missed his chin.

It would be nice for youtube to show this game in 4k. At least give me 1080p. Oh well. 720p is fine but I am hoping for more in 2021 even for a free game. Does youtube only broadcast MLB games in 720p?

[Jason]

This is garbage baseball 

[yk9001]

Who is the third guy in the booth?

I'm getting it in 8K with Dolby Atmos.  WTF are you watching?

Geoff Blum.  Mota, too.  There are 4.

I don't think any of their live tv is higher than 720p but I could be wrong.

Mota is not in the booth. Just Vasgersian, Blum and Gubi. 

[beatlesrule]

Pretty pathetic they are charging $65 or whatever for live TV and only displaying/outputting in 720p.

I haven't heard Mota. That one guy kinda sounds a little like him, but his comments are far less bafoonish.

Ah, sorry, thought I saw a graphic that said Mota was on the broadcast, too.

Angels pitching here to help the Astros break out of their slump I guess
