  1. In a game where there was one question mark in the infield defense, literally every other fielder (3B SS 2B C) commits an error.

    Then the ump tries to fck him…. But guess who has the last word??

    YAINER

  2. “Everybody wants him to play every day, but it’s tough. … It’s much like a young quarterback. How many young quarterbacks come in and take over right away? The way we’ve handled it, the way I’ve handled it, he’ll thank me, the city will thank me and the organization will thank me later.”

  3. That never felt like a game we were going to win until we did. Love that shit!

  4. THE CHAZ CLUTCH SINGLE AND STEAL

    AND THE YAINER FUCKING DIAZ WALKOFF

    DUSTY IS PISSED AND THIS CITY IS THANKING OUR CATCHER!

    FUCK YEAH ASTROS

  5. Also: another W for a game in which Yusei starts. The song lives on!

  6. Dusty is rolling over in his lawn chair. That’s another victory for the good guys. We did not deserve to win this game, not under any circumstances. Four infield errors is ridiculous and needs to be fixed. Kikuchi is amazing and deserved more from us today. But a win is a win. Always and forever. This game was painful to watch but I always love a win. Good job Diaz
