Astros have now scored 100+ runs after the 7th inning, was one run away from matching the record of most runs in single inning in Astros history (12 runs)

They went from being down 6 to scoring double what the Twins have, 16-8

crazy game

Congratulations Twins,

You just laid the biggest, foulest, smellist turd I have ever seen from a bullpen, ever.

If you have a chance (and have mlb.tv), I implore you guys to watch the Astros vs Twins starting at the top of the 8th.

It's a glorious thing to witness.

It really is

After this season he's under contract for two more years for $6m and $6.5m :stare:

Astros better find a way to extend him beyond that

e: Also Boras is his agent so fuuuuuuck me

5 years $25m AAV including buying out his next two seasons? :shrug:

Strickland is going to get like 3 games and Harper's going to get 7 or 8 cause MLB is dumb as hell.

Fuck the DH
Considering baseball has a HBP process, I don't think it's appropriate for a batter to charge the mound at almost any situation, sorry.

Harper can be and has been better than that. He got hit for bullshit reasons in his first season and didn't throw punches in response.
