Kinda ugly but we take those
Hader 💅💅💅
Kikuchi
8 Astros wins for Kikuchi!
14 hit game from the boys. I like what I’m seeing. Zero complaints.

Astros magic number
Franchise win #5000!
Hinch and Det might back door their way into playoffs.
YOU SAYYYYYYYY
Is Kikuchi our lucky charm?
Also 30th save for Hader!
Baseball is pretty fire when we win
[posting a pic of Nori for every win (79)](https://x.com/norithecat17/status/1834804957049921983?s=46)
I would post release the kitties, but Nori is back. Our kitties did their job! A win is a win! 8-0 when Kikuchi starts!
Too many lobsters for my liking, but a win is a win. We were hitting the ball well for the most part, just couldn’t get them home.
Kikuchi is still him, yainer is the best catcher in the league (idc if he played 1B tonight).
Let’s go rangers (🤮🤮🤮)
Should we have scored more runs? Yeah. But we still won and no one (Altuve) got hurt. That’s what matters most.
I hope we can somehow extend kikuchi
Co-worker is a Rangers fans so I’m at their game in Astros gear.
I hate to say this but Go Rangers
Worst. Defending. Champs. Ever.
Yusei “K” Kuchi strikes again!!!
To hell with RISP, we mashing instead.
Like we’ve already said, a win is a win. Let’s keep getting them !
Now that the Angels are out of the way for the night, time to go continue my Studio Ghibli marathon. Got about 25 minutes left in Whisper of the Heart and then on to Princess Mononoke!
Of course the rags are blowing it
Mariners blew a game where they had a 4-1 lead yesterday, only fair that the Rangers returned the favor tonight.
As long as we keep taking care of our business like we did tonight, none of what they do matters.
Rangers are such a useless poverty franchise that got insanely lucky last year
The important thing is our Magic number still went down by one! Big Oof Robertson
God dammit Rags
God even when the rangers lose they disappoint. fraudulent ass franchise
Rangers are pure ass. What a choke job.
Rags as worthless as a barrel of buttholes
Mariners won. They’re clinging to hope. It’s only fair that we keep winning to break that hope
Rags didn’t come through – oh well – still happy we won!
