ONE SWING - GOOD LUCK GETTING 27 OUTS AGAINST THE HOUSTON ASTROS

Holy fuck what a game. I thought that ended 2 hours ago. That’s how it felt at least. Been lingering on the TV getting progressively more interesting. “Okay fine let’s dial here” and then approximately 20 seconds later it’s a Houston Astros walk off Holy fuck winner. This is what makes them impossible to beat. 27 outs against that lineup are just really hard to string together.

Perfect game to show the strengths and weaknesses of each team. Even with a tough start from Verlander and even with an explosive start from the M’s with all the momentum. The Astros are the 1 seed for a reason. Just took until 2 outs in the 9th to remind everyone.

Fortunately a day off for Mariners coming up. Clear the head and come back fresh Tuesday.
