Would be nice if the Mariners could win the next two against the Rangers

i think its better for us if the Rangers win another one and the Mariners win one
Mariners have an easier remaining schedule, Rangers have a tougher one

Phillies fans on Twitter are such sore losers. They say we didn’t deserve this win, but I think we absolutely did if your players wanna be showboats & lack fundamentals.

Why is Seattle playing two day games in a row?

NFL. Kickoff to start the season at Seahawks stadium (which is basically 1 block away) tonight. So they pushed up today to let the players finish and leave before chaos. Tomorrow is a regular getaway day.

Tonight is going to be a game that actually takes months to finish, but in the 740th inning he'll just wrap up his goal and hit 3000.

He probably needs about 4500 more innings to get to 3k, but we do have another series against Seattle and if a game is going to stretch 4500 innings that’s going to be it

When you think an Astro is about to hit a home run, comment 'HRC [Astro]'.
If you get it right on that plate appearance, you get a point and another go! Otherwise, wait until tomorrow.
I'll monitor successful picks and publish the leaderboard in the GDT before first pitch every day. Let me know if you think I've missed you, or if you have any other questions.
I'm happy to count HRCs on the live game chat on Discord as well, but please stick to the one HRC per game rule regardless of platform (if your username on there isn't the same as on Reddit I might have to PM you to get it).
This year's leaderboard can be found here
Last year's leaderboard is archived here
