Game Thread: 8/10 - Is this Houston or London? I see cameras everywhere!

This team is so badly managed and coached and we have like 18 coaches. Maybe 2 of them are worth a shit.

We know Nakkin isn’t one of the bad ones. She is amazing, dontchaknow...

Hey, at least the Astros' pitcher, Lance McCullers, Jr, is throwing a no-hitter. Something is exciting about this game.

Really, Collin?



This is why we can’t have have nice things.

Back in the day, I was a stay at home dad for several years, and desperately wanted to get out and have an adult conversation about anything. I look back and think I was a fool (maybe still am), but there's nothing I wouldn't give to have any of those days back. The kids (my son is 31) grow up way too fast. Enjoy it while it lasts, LHG.

Oh I understand. My oldest is 12 and those years have flown by. What I haven't really ever mentioned here is that two of my children are on the Autism spectrum, so I spend a lot of time at home already. Work was my place of quiet in the midst of chaos. This is why I see this time as both a plus and a minus. I can help my wife a little bit more but I don't get a chance to escape from time to time.

Parenting is a holy and exhausting task in the best of times. Will pray for extra grace for you and your wife. And I understand work being a quiet place, almost a refuge.

As frustrated as I am with this team, and as much of a shitshow as last nights garment was...

that 9th inning was not the first BIG late inning explosion this team has had this year. I kept watching last night because of their propensity to come back. And almost didn’t disappoint...

I'm not fully buying into Slater after one hot week, but only two players in baseball have 3 homers and 4 steals so far, him and Fernando Tatis Jr.
