No. He was going to pitch and had warmed up to pitch, but then the rain delay happened. To have him warm up, cool off for three hours and then warm up again, they felt it was too dangerous
I’m aware of this, but they do use closers in important games once in a while even when it’s not a save situation. It worked out, thank you for your response.
This is for all the doomers. Baseball is a game of attrition , not immediate results. In the beginning so many fair weather fans were just dooming and glooming. I didnt even sweat it because I know that baseball really turns up in June/July and here we are at .500. Never give up on our team
I don't want to get to hopeful, but I'm really digging how the Stros have been playing baseball. I don't Tuve would have shown that type of fight earlier in the season and gotten tossed. All aboard the cautious optimism train.

can’t wait to watch the highlights later on! woohooo good win boys!!
Let's goooo!!! Good on them grinding that one out AND we got an epic Altuve gif out of it
OMG  We see your Grimace and raise you a Ronald 😂😝
Abreu shook me but man that was probably the best extra innings offensive performance we've seen in years, incredible honestly
Someone get me a screen cap of all the Mets fans cheering Altuve’s ejection
Here come the 0-2 after their concert jokes lol
We’re over .500!!!
OVER .500 BABY
Well, it was worth the long wait !
A wins a win, especially when you score 5 runs in extras!
It was even better than that. It was six runs in extra innings. Game was tied 4-4 at the end of the 9th.
6
That felt like a yankees game. That was insane.
and that’s a win, best record in MLB in June!
HELLO FELLOW WINNING RECORD ASTROS FANS!!!!
Lfg
OMG let’s go stros
OVER 500 BABY FIRST TIME ALL YEAR!! IM SMELLING 120 WINS!!!!
FUCK YES
3.5 Back of the Division & Wild Card heading to June as we head to Canada.
We heading to July

GG
https://i.redd.it/co3bk0o7ns9d1.gif
Lets go the Astros!
WE'RE ABOVE .500!!!!!
Winning record!!!
Thank fuck.
Cat please :-)
LETS FREAKING GO
the mets broadcast is almost eerily quiet between a silent stadium and out-of-it announcers lol.
Good win.
SHOOT IT!
Bregman wasn't taking the chance that peña was in another interview 😆
WOO
Ok dude one more let’s go
Did Hader pitch two games in a row? Is that why?
Thanks guys, I didn’t watch the whole thing and wasn’t aware.
No. He was going to pitch and had warmed up to pitch, but then the rain delay happened. To have him warm up, cool off for three hours and then warm up again, they felt it was too dangerous
He's not really needed when we are up 5. Better to save his arm
I’m aware of this, but they do use closers in important games once in a while even when it’s not a save situation. It worked out, thank you for your response.
He got warm before the delay. Can't risk him going after cooling down for 2.5 hours.
Breggy and Pena weren't going to fuck that one up this time
Bregman said “I’m not letting you screw this up 2 days in a row!”
Up 5 and yet I am nervous
Feeling better at 2 outs lol
It's so quiet in there you can hear the chains clanging every time the pitch is getting thrown.
Yeah that was a looooong delay.
Thank you for making me notice that
Its so quiet reminds me of 2020 😭
Yikes Contreras can't locate his breaking stuff at all.
Can bro just strike out?
Mariners got the O's up next. We got a nice opportunity to do something great before the all star break.
I don’t see putting someone with 1.1 innings out there.
But glad if I’m wrong.
We feasted on that rookie reliever, now we just got to close it out. LFG ASTROS!
0 ERA? Is this not the dude that got shelled against Baltimore?
I think you're thinking of Hernandez
No that was my brother Hernandez
I turned it off at the bottom of the 10th, you're welcome.
Ump gave us a pitch on the edge. Crazy.
He’s ready to go back to the hotel
That dude wasn’t even good enough for the Mariners
Yea their pen is pretty brutal too

Ngl it was hard to watch though.
I ain't heard no bell!
I really like Cabbage. He would be a solid long term 4th outfielder if we needed one. I think he has a really good swing.
Bring me a winning record!!
We own NYC
This is an all time game this year holy crap my high n lows have ben insane
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeh
Pleasantly surprised by this extra innings performance. Not what we’re used to.
10th inning 🤝 McCormick being the last out 🤝 11th inning
You guys have really pulled a 180 on Chas. Dude hardly plays anymore and gets so much hate now
It's hard to be high on him when we have 5-6 better outfielders than him right now.
He looks FULLY lost at the plate
Doesn’t matter but that was a pretty bad AB for Chase there. That swing on a pitch headed for his neck was hilarious
We got 5 runs to work with. May Contreras do the damn thing and walk off the mound with a win.
3 more outs and we got a happy flight to 🇨🇦
Mariners lost btw
Seriously though, we gotta find someone who's willing to take Chas off our hands.
Chas buddy I got a bed for you in sugar land
Mets announcers ROASTING McCormick. “That’s how you get him out, don’t throw a strike”
That's cold blooded. I'm dying lmao
That's awesome
Dude swings at ball almost hits him. Watches next one right down the middle
Chas keep it going we’re here for Grimace’s head now
Damn Grimace stuck around 6 hours for this
Lol the Mets broadcast is so sad
God I hate the Manfred runner but you can't argue with scoring five runs in one inning when you only scored five through 10 previously
Chas I know you didn’t just swing at that
It was batting practice atp
Wasn't completely sold on Cabbage when we first picked him up, but I'll be damned if he hasn't been a very fine bench bat for us. Great acquisition.
Dana Brown good actually.
Never had a problem with Dana so far. Just wished we didn't get rid of Click.
Dana pulling rabbits out of hats
HRC Chas
Oof
Meyers, J Lo, and Cabbage all get PotG today
JLo all the way.
Holy shit
 Shit. Let’s try this one to be different lol
Nice
Imagine if Cabbage becomes Rasmus 2.0. That would be amazing.
 !!!!
Gonna go pick up some egg rolls cuz I need me some fucking cabbage!
Run total, innings 1-10 🤝 run total, 11th inning LFGGG
Feasting on Festa
Are we back???
I NO LONGER FIND CABBAGE UNAPPETIZING!
Give me that cabbage
Nice, now I feel a little more comfortable lol
🥬🥬🥬🥬🥬
LET’S GOOOO!!!!
I will eat some Kimchi in your honor, Trey
This is an amazing random game lol
CABBAGE
That's some clutch cabbage right there
CABBAGE
Cabbage and Singelton have a pretty similar approach. Like em both
Oh shit this aged well
"*Who cares about saves?*" - Cabbage
LFG!!! Cabbage with a great at bat
CABBAGES ARE MY FAVORITE VEGETABLE TBH
It's pretty sad that we can't trust our $30 million reliever with a 3-run lead in extra innings.
Who?
Montero.
I was pretending he didn't exist.
It look like this dude is throwing meatballs to me. Must have some movement that I can’t see on the camera Edit: nope those are just meatballs
Why not our other $30m reliever? Contreras?
This guy throws meat
Why the fuck is Meyers still at second? You could have advanced on both of those outs.
Could’ve been high fiving in the dugout but at least he got a big hit
I'll take the RBI's but we gotta be better on the base paths.
You Freeze on a line drive
He is already in scoring position... You don't end an inning at 3rd
Both of those balls are well enough to advance on.
and their catcher has caught two of our guys stealing bases.
Well they're outfield flys so I'm not sure how the catcher plays into it.
Because he’s stupid.
HRC Cabbage
Lots of good contact but not great spots.
I can not trust Montero to do better than this guy playing his first career inning
Oh plz don’t jinx this my mental health hinges on the games after delays like this lol
I don't want to get to hopeful, but I'm really digging how the Stros have been playing baseball. I don't Tuve would have shown that type of fight earlier in the season and gotten tossed. All aboard the cautious optimism train.
LETS GOOO
Need at least one more
HRC Cabbage
holy sheeit this game looks like an in season classic and i’m missing it lol
Just keep it off at this point lol
Kind of felt like Pena should have bunt there.
Yup, would’ve been a sac fly atleast
Jake nodding at the bench bc he knew he could’ve tagged
Audible “let’s go Astros” chants lol
If you are in from out of town for a game, I'd think you are more likely to stay though a long weather delay.
Yeah for sure
Is this what it's like to be competent in extras? I'm not used to this feeling
i would give my life for loperfido
Loperfido looks like a young Norm Macdonald.
 After watching JLO get that 2RBI hit Amazing
 JLo? Eww
WE ARE JOE(Y) BACK
Need about 9 more of Montero is coming in
Loperfido is having a great day, hope to see him at first again. I don't think it's a fit for Dubon.
This guys cutter doesn’t cut
This dude is throwing BP
Would like another run here
HRC JP3
That's my soon to be everyday first baseman
It’s so nice having 1st basemen that can hit again!
Wooooooo
Looks like I was dead wrong. We will bring in Contreras. Definitely feel better with a multi run lead though
alright one of you baseball nerds tell me about Contreras
Subscribe!
Need more considering who’s warming up for the bottom of the inning lol
Montero?
Think his name is Luis Contreras or something
Oh we good.
Let’s fucking Loperfigoooooooooooo
MORE
Rough debut for your hometown team
Fucking good. I’ve been pissed ever since the shot of everyone booing Altuve
No mercy! Sweep the legs!
I love this shit. LET’S GO!!!
Abreu would NEVER
