    What's wrong with the Astros? They just lost their 5th game in a row.

    Alex Bregman goes 4 for 4 with a double and a home run and 3 rbi. Astros break 5 game losing streak and avoid being swept in the second straight series.

    Former pitcher Goose Gossage says baseball has become unwatchable. Says it's home run derby like a video game. I can see how a pitcher might feel that way but fans love the long ball. Still, the game has been tilted to far in favoring the hitters over the pitchers.

    No no for Verlander. 9 innings 14k 1bb

    Astros win 2-0 as Bregman leads off with a double and Toros hits the long ball.

    Giants at the braves is on, I always watch the fans behind home plate, this is the worst I've ever seen, the fans are mostly just yaking with each other, I doubt that even a third of them are watching the pitches

    Atlanta usually has the prettiest fans

    But the Astros have the prettiest fan. At least when Verlander pitches.
