MLB Update:
Suzuki gives a weak Verlander fastball a firm ride, hometown darling Breggy suffers an embarrassing case of fumbleitis and the Astros fall apart faster than you can say blueberry pancakes. Houston may not be dead yet, but they’re in critical condition, verging on life support. The Brantley acquisition has not given them much left-handed punch, and the bullpen is being exposed for what it is … fairly mediocre. As for the latter observation, perhaps Hinch sensed this, and made the fatal mistake of trotting Justin out there in the fateful 7th. Meanwhile, the Nats are doing everything right, and go home with an historic opportunity to bring baseball glory back to the Nation’s Capital for the first time in nearly 100 years. #Nationals #Astros
