for for [Music] [Music] for for [Music] [Music] for for [Music] good morning good afternoon good evening wherever you guys are greetings from Hiroshima Japan this is goo tiger stros it is now 7:36 in the morning here and and I'm heating up some water I'm about to make my morning Cup O Coffee it's in the description but in case you guys didn't see it or don't normally look in the descriptions of the videos just wanted to let you know that I'm only going to be able to do the live play byplay for roughly an hour today before I go to classes luckily the game started or starts rather a little more than an hour earlier than usual a lot of these games for me start just after 9:00 in the morning unfortunately during weekday my classes start at 9:00 in the morning so that means that around 8:50 about 10: till 9:00 I have to leave here on my bike and go to classes I stayed home yesterday which I was not really wanting to do on one hand because I really need to be in my classes but on the other hand I wasn't feeling well I was having chest pains still have pains over here under my arm um hoping to get that checked out when I go to the hospital on Monday for my regular monthly checkup but because of staying home I was able to call the game it was a really good game game four with the Orioles Astros W up even even in that series but they should have won all four games honestly they should have been sweeping the Orioles not just for that series but for the entire season that's the way it should have played out but they broke down you probably already know that but today is the first game in Philadelphia of a three- game series today for game one ryel Blanco's on the mound facing Zack Wheeler should be a pitching matchup but according to the stats I think that Zack Wheeler is due for a Drummond hope the Astros bats are able to thump him today but until let's say um maybe maybe if we're lucky I'll get all the way through the third inning and maybe some of the fourth inning before I have to leave should be able to and at that point I'll leave the game streaming so that you can see the live score [Music] and at bat information on the screen so if you guys want you can continue to check that out keep it going in the background so you can check it or whatever but I will be checking in during my break times between classes in the live chat so you can see me there but I do believe that my hot water is ready for my coffee so I'm about to go in there and grab that first pitch should be coming in just a moment so I should probably get on that I'll be right back and bregman is due to lead off actually looks like Altuve is going to have a break today so I'll be right back with that lead off Pitch [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] all right guys here's the lineup for the Astros today Alex bregman yordon Alvarez who's playing in left field today followed by Yer Diaz who's catching today Jeremy Peña John Singleton who's at DH and then Victor car from there it's going to be Ben gaml Jake Myers and Shay whitcom whitcom is actually playing second today first pitch bregman from wheeler is almost on the way first pitch of the game that one's in the right hitting in the right field right off the bat a line drive to the right fielder it's going to be out number one so just like that one pitch one out that brings up yordon Alvarez batting 352 on the road this year is yordon he's number one in Al for batting average on the road first pitch to him is high 95 milph strike I mean ball one here comes the pitch that one's also High 96 mil an hour up in the zone that should have been ball too but yordon took a swing at it and fou it away third pitch from wheeler is on the way a little low and outside barely missed the corner ball two two balls one strike to Alvarez here's the Pitch hit hard wow that one was ripped 96 mph on the inside corner ripped foul but that ball was launched 113.png by Alvarez Alvarez making a lot of contact with the ball and his Bat is looking very fast today we'll have another 2 two count pitch it's now on the way hit hard into right field that's going to be a single Alvarez on first base I'm going to have to put this video a little behind so I can get a replay yordon on first base with one out whoops I just realized that I didn't take my starting shortly graphic off the screen sorry about that okay problem fixed sorry that guys missed seeing that single janner Diaz is up to bat first pitch him is in there for strike one 0 and one is the count here's the pitch in the dirt almost 96 mph ball one that will be an even count yon Alvarez on first base with one out nice strong Line Drive Alvarez looking really good with his at bat his swings today are looking really sharp and fast here's the next pitch to Al I mean uh Diaz that's on the outside corner strike two one ball two strikes and I can add more water to my coffee filter here comes the onew pitch to Diaz swinging a miss high fast ball 95 mph could have been a ball what is it about the high fast ball that makes so many batters swing and Miss I always wondered that I think I've accidentally accidentally got the music still going on my screen I do sorry about that okay Jeremy pñ is at the plate first pitched hims fouled away for strike one 0 and one is the count two outs Alvarez on first base next pitch terrible swing in a Miss by Jeremy Peña on the outside corner trying to get my pre timing just right my preview screen has to be a little behind the game so I have time to click on it oh and two is the count to Jeremy Peña here comes the pitch tosses that one outside paa lays off that's going to be ball one okay that's better one ball two strikes here comes a pitch another one way outside 96 mph taken for ball two two balls two strikes and my coffee is ready to be stirred and consumed Zack Wheeler has the call here's the two two pitch to Jeremy Peña that one's hit a little Tapper but looks like it was a Tapper towards shorts stop but actually it was off his foot opinion I might be changing his bad it looks like you broke his bad on that one you can see Altuve sitting in the Dugout today he has a little bit of a break Altuve at most might be coming in as a pinch hitter later but body's most likely just getting a break today two and two here's the pitch to paa another one low and outside ball three Full Count clicked on the wrong tab here comes the Full Count pitch from wheeler that one's in there trapped to the third it's going to have to be a quick play by Bowman is Jeremy safe they say they got him but that was close take a look at this look how close that was not so sure about that they need to take another look they're going to take a quick look at it to see if they want to challenge but it looks like they're not going to so that's going to be the end of the first inning Astros do get a hit but leave yordon stranded on first base so we'll go into the bottom of the first Astros Astros with one hit no runs I think we got some messages in the live chat let me take a look okay here we go another good game for Houston hey Rush Plays thanks for coming back man it's good to see you again and uh special thanks to you the other subscribers for supporting the channel I got to 100 subscribers now at 102 very happy about that first big milestone I guess you could say next one I'm really looking forward to getting to is 500 because at 500 I get some extra features through YouTube that can be very handy for me and of course 1,000 is the main one because it opens up uh full monetization possibilities but the uh main thing that I really really looking forward to is getting to 500 first uh the reason for that is just because there are some partial monetization things and I'm looking looking forward to getting those let's see here I need to change something on the screen here give me a moment okay I see trying to figure out why something is not showing on screen properly and I think I just figured it out there we go okay my viewer count was coming up behind the orange and uh finally figured out why got it fixed Kyle shorer comes up to bat while I'm playing around with my stuff on the screen he's got two balls on him this next pitch is fouled back for strike one two and one against schwarber two balls one strike to Kyle schwarber batting 248 here comes the next pitch just a little outside ball three Blanco threatening to walk the lead off batter I know that schwarber has some power but you got a pitch to him here's the pitch that one's just off the outside corner man missed by about two Ines looks like schwarber is going to be on first base lead off walk by ryel Blanco and he's making me have to work by putting a runner back on base here we go that brings up Trey Turner Trey Turner takes a strike right down the gut 94 mil hour 0 and one here comes the next pitch to Turner that one's in the dirt outside 85 miles hour evens the count one one one and one count here's the pitch to Turner Turner throws his Bat on that strike you got to see that look at that on that pitch by Blanco he took a a big swing at it but completely lost his Bat I want to see that replay again look how far he threw that that's crazy look at that how do you throw your bat like that never in my whole life did I ever throw my bat like that while I was playing baseball that's crazy one and two is the count here comes the pitch from Blanco this one's hit hard to left field wow he launched on that one look at this but it was foul count remains one and two I'm still getting ready to go so that I don't have to be in a rush later one ball two strikes runner on first base no outs here comes a pitch from Blanco High fast ball taken for ball one two balls two strikes two balls two strikes here comes the pitch trainer trainer Trey Turner not trainer Trey Turner swings and misses for strikeout number one what I thought that was strike three I was wrong it's two and two okay strike two apparently here's the next this one's hit hard to paa paa can't make the play another crazy looking nonsense play by paena he didn't pick it up cleanly and then throws it over the head of whitcom at second base he made himself look crazy right there Peña just freaked out which should have been a double play ball turns into an error Trey Turner is on first now schwarber is on second you got to see this this Replay that ball he misplayed it and then when he tried to flip it to whitcom it went right over his head crazy that brings up Bryce Harper two Runners on no outs guys Astros defense not doing Blanco any favors here one strike to Harper next pitch is outside and low for ball one one and one one ball one strike no outs Runners on first and second here in the bottom of the first here comes the pitch low check swing did he go they say he did not that will be ball two two and one 15 pitches now for Blanco in the first inning without a single out here comes the next pitch this one's hit hard to right field but just foul line drive shot that'll be strike two two and two I have to be really careful what I'm calling the count if I don't have it memorized after each pitch because whoever whoever is doing the pitch count are on the screen they often change it when they realize it's wrong here comes a two two pitch another one bounced foul by Harper here comes the two two pitch from Blanco that one's way high that's going to be a Full Count Full Count runers on first and second no outs Blanco facing Bryce Harper here comes the delivery this is ground ball to sha witam he goes to Peña pay at a first double play so Astros turn two runner advances to Third H oh my gosh uh what just happened ah I see I accidentally closed my tabs Alec bom now with a plate first pitch he takes is a ball second Pitch is in there with a swing and Miss sorry for the delay there had a little issue had to restart my browser one in one is the count against bom Runner is on third two outs get that updated two balls one strike here comes the pitch from Blanco high in the zone fouled back that's an even count two and two Astros with the nice double play Peña almost redeems himself as long as they get out of this inning it'll be all good two outs runner on third here's the next pitch to B he found it off to the right side 95 right in the middle of the Zone this will be the 25th pitch of the inning for Blanco here it comes this is grounded to Pena he's able to get that one and fired it over to First out number three so Peña is able to make the play that time so Peña who is responsible for losing a double play is able to make the double play and then get the Final Ground out to end the inning so Astros get lucky there despite the error in the hit well there actually wasn't an official hit there was a walk in an error so despite the error and two Runners on the Astros come away with no runs given up very lucky but Blanco is up to almost 30 pitches already just in the first inning that's nuts at this rate he will not make it through six Innings coming up to bat in the top of the second are John Singleton Victor cartini and Ben gaml I'm going to go change my shorts I'll be right back guys B all right man they're showing more highlights of all Tu they first pitch to Singleton is in there for strike one they were showing some highlights of Altuve he was able to meet with some fans who've been recently through some tough stuff including surgery I understand how that feels next pitch to Singleton is a ball that evens count 10 of1 wheeler up to 20 pitches Altuve is such a great guy I wish I could meet him uhoh John Singleton with a single single MC Singleton singles to right field nice RIP by Singleton leadoff hit we got a leadoff hit and base runner for the Astros there we go that brings up Victor kartini Victor kartini or Ben affle if you take a look at him that's what he looks like to me he looks like Ben affle foul ball on that inside High fast ball 96 mph he's able to muscle it off it looks like the Astros are getting around getting that bad on these fast balls from wheeler that's nice I absolutely love seeing when Altuve goes to these on the road stadiums and there's so many fans showing up just to talk and see him talk to him and see him get his autograph I absolutely love that next pitch is a swing and a miss strike two Kini has the Myers count on him he he decides to call timeout take a break he's telling himself you're not Jake Myers you're not Jake Myers you're Victor kartini you're Victor kartini got about a Baker's Dozen watching thanks for joining guys thank you very much for being here today here comes the next pitch to cartini that one's in the dirt 81 mph ball one one and two single MC Singleton is on first base with a single Astros have two hits this game so far yordon single in the last inning which was ripped to right field and another rip to right field by John Singleton here comes a one-w pitch to caratini that one's bounced to the right side and it's going to get through guys and ring looks like Singleton's going to get to third no he doesn't he stays so single MC Singleton sorry just can't help myself he doesn't quite have the speed to get to third he decides not to risk it Singleton's got the dad bod going on basically so yeah it makes sense why he wouldn't be running to third he was he was lumbering to get to second base I I don't see him getting to third I guess look how Singleton is just lumbering around second Bas you know then gamble comes up to bat first pitch to him is taken for ball one Astros have Runners on first and second with no out out here in the top 0 thei Ben gaml at the plate with a 10 count here comes the pitch from wheeler that one's outside 955 milph misses the mark good eye by gaml two balls no strikes since being with the Astros gaml has been bringing up his batting average he's now batting 294 here comes the 20 pitch right on the outside corner just barely strike one I would have taken that one too can't blame him would have been a nice three-oh count but it was right on the corner or right on the edge rather of the zone two and one here comes the pitch from wheeler fouled back that one was also a little outside but in the zone strike two gaml could get easily another single to right field he's definitely got the ability to do it here comes a two- two pitch good take by gaml on that curveball 82 mph low counts full now wheeler is up to 30 pitches no outs Runners on first and second Ben gaml with the plate fa facing wheeler here comes the pitch ooh right in there why did he take that one why did you take that one struck him out looking look at this how could you not swing on that one rung him up wheeler man you disappoint me I mean uh gaml well wheeler you did too you shouldn't have put a strike in there but camel come on man anything close you got to be swinging that was a beautiful pitch I could you not swing on that Jake Meers comes up very first pitch another one right in the zone for strike one 96 mph on that one Meyers betting 231 is the PowerHouse in the bottom of the order I would one is the count is he going to get the Myers count fouled back yes he is Myers with the Myers count 0 and two 0 and two wow Myers is six for 42 since July my goodness gracious how can he be 6 for 42 and still be in the lineup it's amazing isn't it no balls two strikes two Runners on that was high 97 mil an hour ball one Astros cannot get two leadoff Runners on and then leave them stranded this is where they've had an issue but they've also been scoring a lot of runs with two outs recently so maybe it doesn't matter here comes the pitch another high fast ball for ball two 96 mil hour on that one two and two is the count I've got maybe another 40 minutes of calling this game before I have to go to school but I will continue the stream with the live score right down the heart of the plate 85 mph fouled back by Meyers C range two and two two balls two strikes to Jake Meyers here comes the pitch from wheeler that was in the dirt basically 96 mil hour ball three wheeler working pretty hard now he's about to deliver his 38th pitch of the game with one out Runners on first and second Shay whitcom on Deck here comes the pitch to Myers hit hard up the middle is it going to be playable it is looks like a double play ball and they get it so the Astros do wind up stranding Runners with that ground ball by Jake Meyers so the Astros let me down I let me down nothing doing for the Astros in the top of the second despite two leadoff Runners backto back hits and then they leave them on base so the Astros decide to be more like the early 2024 Astros and less like the more recent Astros who can actually drive runs in bring in the runners Blanco would be back up on the mound in just a moment and let's see who who he'll be facing got about 17 people watching thanks so much guys we're already up to 10 likes so far or 11 I really appreciate that my goal right now because of my channel being so small is to get at least 11 likes per live stream as my subscriber and view counts go up then I will expect to pump that up even more I need a different Poll for the chat today I've got one well let me change that I've got an interesting poll question for you guys what team will the Astros likely struggle against to reach the World Series what what team would the Astros uh most likely struggle against to get to reach the World Series okay Yankees Phillies Orioles let me take a look at the standings I want to see what the the standing are wow very first pitch great play by bregman very first pitch Line Drive caught that could have been extra basis for sure out one just like that with one pitch good job that was castanos Nick castanos now Bryson Scott's up to bat quickly takes two strikes that second Pitch was right on the outside part of the Zone but he got it Blanco got it for strike two you can see it right here boom right there H disappointing for Brian St but good for the Astros 0 and two here comes the 30th pitch of the game for Blanco that's a little Tapper bregman's got it he fires to First no he doesn't make the throw nothing doing there he decided not to throw that one no play that's going to be an infield hit for start one out one runner on for the Phillies I guess stot is a fast runner despite being in the right spot and charging bregman did not have a throw that brings up real Muto real Muto very first pitch he fouls up in away that'll be strike one let's see the guardians Guardians yeah that's what I'll do 0 and one the count against Real mut another one fouled up 94 miles an hour that's going to be strike two 0 and two is the count okay these are the only three teams I'm going to put on on the poll guys the question is what team would the Astros most likely struggle against to reach the world series Yankees guardians or Phillies swing and a miss strike three Blanco gets the strike out against RI Muto nice pitch boom Brandon Marsh comes up to bat Blanco fires over to first base little pickoff move but the runer is back no problem Brandon Marsh batting 244 this year two outs one runner on base another pickoff move and they got him but it was a bad throw it was a wild throw goes all the way to the wall so he's going to advance absolutely terrible terrible throw Blanco actually picked him off it was a good read by Blanco to make the pickoff move but the ball was in the dirt it was such an awful throw he couldn't get it take a look at this kartini's at first base ter absolutely terrible throw he had him dead to rights but he threw it in the dirt to kartini yeah that was a super easy toss he just had to lob it over there Blanco with a ridiculous error there first pitch to Brandon Marsh is a ball one and0 runner on third two outs error has been charged to Blanco that pitch is high and outside 88 mph for ball two 2 and0 man two errors for the Astros so far both of them looking more like the Bad News Bears than the Houston Astros here comes the 2-0 pitch to Brandon Marsh he breaks his back that was a close play Shay whitcom is barely able to get that toss over the broken bat by Marsh witcom tosses it over to kartini who barely gets to the bag in time that ends the inning Astros keep the runs off the board but man what a nonsense inning Astros appear to be trying to give runs to the Phillies it's interesting because the difficult plays the Astros are making the difficult plays but the easy plays they're looking like amateurs looking like little league players but once again they get lucky first two innings despite errors the Astros get lucky and don't give up any runs we go into the top of the third z00 z z three hits for the Astros one hit for the Phillies two errors the Astros shows have more errors than the Phillies do hits 20 people watching thanks so much for being here it's nice to see so many so early in the chat I've got 105 subscribers it's already moved up a little bit more thank you so much for being here I am a big Astros fan all my life for those of you who don't know uh since we're during the break I'll just give you a quick opportunity to tell you a little bit about myself and why I hope you will subscribe to the channel and come back and support me uh first of all although I do the live playby plays I watch the game live and I do the playby plays I can't be here for all of the games or all of each game because I am in Hiroshima Japan and here in Japan I study full-time at a language School under a student visa that means that I have to be in my classes you know study and take tests and all that kind of stuff some of these games take place while I should be in class so I can't be here just for example right now it's 88:18 in the morning I have to be in class at 9:00 uh my class my school is nearby so I can leave in about maybe 30 minutes or so and get there on time so it's no problem I can call this game for another 30 minutes but I will have to leave and go to my classes so I will leave the game streaming with the live score on the screen however for days when the game starts much earlier or on the weekends I can call those games so I will be here for those games just to let you know um I spent my Early Childhood in Houston that's when I became a Houston fan but I was born in Louisiana so I'm also an LSU Tigers football fan there you go that's the Spiel Shay whitcom is up to bat the very first pitch he takes for strike one here comes the next pitch outside ball one one1 they're talking with Mauricio dubon for those of you who did not see yesterday gon made an amazing catch out in left field and ran into the wall and he's having a rest today but he looks good next pitch is in there for strike two one ball two strikes to shade Wick come this will be the 42nd pitch of the game for wheeler is hit out to right field it might be playable and it is casos catches it right by the line about a about 15 ft from the warning track no problem that'll be out number one Alex bregman comes up he is in the leadoff spot today Altuve is on break Alex bregman lined out his first at bat here comes the first to him ooh right in the middle of the plate 95 mph strike one one out no Runners on here in the top of the third Astros with three hits but no runs to show for it yet next pitch to bregman is low just barely missed the bottom of the Zone good call by the UMP ball one breaking ball 84 milph the count is even Alex bregman looking all serious here comes the one andone pitch he hits this one to the middle looks like it might drop and it does that's going to be a single second baseman was out there it looks like was that bom he tried to get out there and get to it but he wasn't able to bregman with a nice single nice soft single soft serve little soft serve ice cream by bregman to get the base hit so after that really hard line out at his first at bat bregman goes soft and gets the single so we have a one out runner on base for Jordon Alvarez man come on Alvarez give us a two to nothing lead right here he ripped the ball out his firsted Bat the first to right field for a single 97 mph in up and in up and in sorry Bowl one ohoo man I see a Baltimore oreo shirt in the in the crowd that's crazy in Philly one ball no strikes 96 in the zone fouled back by yordon yordon is whipping that bat around and making some serious contact with the ball one ball one strike and yordon interestingly enough is one for one today let's make it two for two baby here comes the pitch from wheeler oh inside 95 milph scoots him back just a little bit two balls one strike they mentioned last at bat but I'll reiterate here that Alvarez has the best on the road batting average of anyone in the American League next pitch is low fouled away 83 mph breaking ball just barely able to get a piece of it that evens the count two and two big CAD hello thank you for being here welcome to the live chat man good to see you go Astros come on Astros I agree let's go yordon Alvarez let's have another big grip here we need some runs man I want to see some runs before I leave for school come on here's the two- two pitch the 50th pitch by wheeler 97 right in the zone yordon fouls that one back another hard swing Alvarez's swings continue to look sharp and strong he is fully awake and ready to go here comes the two- two pitch outside ball three Full Count Astros being pretty patient today despite the lack of runs on the board they have been driving up the pitch count this will be the 52nd pitch of the game for wheeler here in the third inning here comes the pitch to Alvarez he fouls this one all off bregman was running on that one bre has to jog back to first base nothing doing there on that foul foul off three balls two strikes we're going to have another Full Count pitch from wheeler to yordon Alvarez here comes the pitch nope he fires over to first base bregman is back no problem Full Count one out bregman on first base Alvarez at the plate here comes the pitch bregman is running again 96 miles hour fouled back again that's funny so bregman has to jog back to to first base again he's getting the exercise today that's funny bregman has only tried to steal three times this year but he's three for three here comes another Full Count pitch to Alvarez and it's on the way that one's in the dirt it's going to be Ball Four first walk for wheeler tonight Astros now have Runners on first and second with one out let's move bregman up to Second so after all that work bregman does finally get to second base but this time he doesn't have to run to get there he can take a leisurely stroll yanner Diaz is up the first pitch to him as a swing and foul ball 96 milph low and inside Yer struck out his last at bat with runners in scoring position Yer is third in the American League batting 359 here comes the 0 and one pitch oh man that was a good pitch to hit but Yer just missed it 96 mil an hour take a look at this man just couldn't get as bad on that one 0 and2 is the count yanner not looking as sharp at the plate as yordon today here comes the 0 and2 pitch that one's in the dirt blocked by the catcher that'll be one and two runner is not able to advance no balls oh one ball I'm sorry one ball two strikes I was looking at the 0 and one for Diaz and I said no balls but it's one and two with one out Runners on first and second here's the pitch by wheeler to Diaz High fast ball swing and Miss there's no way he was going to be getting that one absolutely terrible strikeout number two for Diaz swinging at garbage again Diaz looking absolutely terrible at the play today two strikeouts for him that brings up Jeremy Peña two outs two Runners on this is peña's opportunity to make up for the error that he made in the first inning first pitch to him is on the way high fast ball fouled back actually that looked more like a change up 86 mil an hour I think I have time for one more quick cup of coffee yeah I've got about 20 more minutes I can pour some more no balls one strike to Jeremy Peña two Runners on here's the pitch fouled back again 96 mil an hour high in the zone that was a good one to swing at it was going to be a strike either way he just couldn't get on it no balls two strikes just don't swing it junk paa swing it a pitch in the zone here comes the o02 pitch that one's hit hard to center field into the Gap it looks like it's going to be playable though Marsh makes the catch right by the wall in center field and that's going to be it for the Astros they leave once again two Runners on base they strand two more Runners so the Astros determined to look like early 2024 Astros get Runners on and leave them there very disappointing Astros with four hits no runs two errors going into the bottom of the third the philes coming up with one hit no errors no runs Austin Hayes Kyle schwarber and Trey Turner are do up to face Rell Blanco Blanco up to 36 pitches as of right now going into going into the third inning into the bottom of the third inning already close to 40 pitches let's see here once again I have to move the base runners off because the Astros didn't do it for me take a look look at the chat see if we got anything going on me too man me too says big cat big cat says do you think we'll make it to the World Series this year well that's I I think that you know positive people would say absolutely man we'll do it I can't say that because the way I look at it is that the Astros have had an amazing season on one hand but on the other hand they've also really hurt themselves and they haven't completely been able to shake off all of that nonsense if you if you look at the last series that they played the four game series that they played with the Orioles that's a good example of the the old Astros the early 2024 Astros creeping in and and uh causing problems for the way you know for the causing problems for their success right now because they really should have swept that series with the Orioles but there are two problems that the Astros seem to have consistently uh well let me change that they've had consistently in the past and they come back to haunt them sometimes first pitch to Austin hazes and there for strike one 0 and one is the count and one of those is the relief pitching giving up leads giving up the games that's one foul back by Hayes that's strike to 0 and two is the count the other issue is the Astros stranding Runners you know just not driving in the runs leaving guys on base consistently so when the Astros are doing those two things they can't win strike three man three pitch strikeout by Blanco on the 81 m per hour pitch Austin Hayes goes down swinging take a look at this nice beautiful pitch by Blanco it would definitely have been a ball but Hayes just couldn't lay off out number one no Runners on the leadoff batter is on the bench Kyle schwarber is up first pitch to him he checks his swing they say he did not go that's ball one 79 mph pitch there so I said all of that to say that if the Astros can get their hits when it matters most and just limit the damage with their relief pitching then yes they can definitely go to and win the World Series two more pitches outside on the on the next pitch for ball two that pitch is barely on the corner for strike one good call by the UMP to catch that one two and one is the count to schwarber here comes the next pitch ooh right in there beautiful pitch on the outside corner schwarber just taking everything right now two balls two strikes that was a nice pitch right on the outside corner here comes the two two pitch that was a check swing he definitely win around on that one he was gone strike three another strike out for Blanco look at this one completely fulled schwarber wh man two outs two strikeouts two outs Blanco looking much more like his topof the line S that brings up Trey Turner he grounds one right through the hole on the very first pitch so that'll be a hit on the very first pitch to Trey Turner right through the gap between third and short stop Phillies have a base runner with two outs runner on first that brings up Bryce Harper Bryce Harper his lasted bat grounded into a double play he's 0 for one today batting 273 for the season runner on first two outs here comes the pitch from Blanco Harper swings and fouls that one away 81 milph strike one I'm going to have to Wolf down this second Cup O Coffee because I don't have much time before I have to leave the house I got to leave here in about 15 minutes I'm really sorry to have to leave you guys today but I will leave the live score going that next pitch is way high for ball one the count is even 90 three miles an hour on that one man this uh this water needs to drip faster I'm in a hurry one ball one strike two outs one runner on here's the pitch just a little high taken for ball two two and one to Bryce Harper when the Astros have the opportunities against teams like the Phillies they have to score can't be playing around with teams like this two and one is the count that's going to make it three and one high and outside on that breaking pitch 80 M an hour three balls one strike runner on first Blanco playing around with Bryce Harper this will be the 50th pitch of the game for Blanco on the way right now swinging a Miss on the outside corner good pitch by Blanco 87 miles an hour full count two outs runner on first let's see what Blanco comes up with here comes a pitch man Harper rips on that one sends it steaming out into the stands on the right side count remains three and two about 107 miles hour on that hit we're going to have another Full Count pitch here comes a pitch way high that one missed by a mile good grief what do you thinking there Blanco that was like two feet off the plate or 2 feet out of the Zone look how high this was wow that's another walk or that's a another base runner a hit and a walk with two outs so after getting the first two batters Blanco gives up a hit to Turner and a walk to Harper Phillies now have Runners on first and second this could have been the first inning where Blanco just didn't have any issues just one two three he's up to 52 pitches now Alec B had a ground out in the first inning I believe his ground out ended the inning that difficult first inning for the Astros Blanco determined not to have an easy inning it looks like this game Runners on first and second Here Comes it pitch that one's hit hard out to right field looks like it be play could be playable and it is gambl underneath it makes the catch for out number three so little scariness but Astro is able to get out of it Blanco gets lucky with the once again they keep messing around with the Phillies they need to watch it after three we're still tied at zero Z Astros coming up to bat to face wheeler who's at 61 pitches it looks like it's going to be Singleton kartini and gaml let's check the live stream and see what's going on I've got a poll in the the chat guys if you have a moment to vote for it what team would the Astros most likely struggle against to reach the world SE series I only put three teams here I know that there are other teams that they could play and struggle against but these are just the ones that I decided to put the Yankees the Phillies and the Guardians right now there are 11 votes 64% of you say the Phillies 36% say Yankees and no votes for the Guardians you guys aren't given any love to the Guardians right I really can't stand the Guardians and it's primarily because because of some issues that the Astros had the Guardians uh a few years ago I can't remember which season it was Guardians uh knocked the Astros out I believe Pam Flair fler thank you for being here appreciate you joining us we need a home run right now you're right about that the Astros need to get some runs somehow and I'll take them any way shape or form solo home runs homers with Runners on base bunt home runs anything is fine by me I just want them to get some runs on the board they cannot be playing around with the Philadelphia Phillies John Singleton Big John Singleton is up to bat with his big old dad bod here comes the pitch check swing did he go around umpire said he did that'll be strike number one Singleton just staring at the Umpire like what and he takes time out immediately no balls one strike o and one here comes a pitch from wheeler Singleton takes that one inside it almost Nicks him on the legs they're showing the che swing yeah yeah look at this check swing he didn't actually go it was close but he didn't go and the home plate umpire called that a strike instead of checking with the third base umpire strange next pitch to Singleton is in there for strike two here comes a one and two pitch that one's low and inside for ball two the count is even two and two Pam says I'm in Houston cool awesome I wish I could uh be in Philly at the game and I wish I could I really wish I could see some games at minma Park I'm just too far away Singleton rips set down the first Baseline but harvor with the diving catch robs Singleton of another single let's take a look at that one he rips it down caught by Harper tosses it to Wheeler to get the out at first base he didn't even have to to toss it to him he could have just stepped on the base himself but it was still a great catch robbing single of another Singleton single single MC Singleton that brings up Victor kartini first pitch to him is High inside for ball one so one out one away no Runners on pictor kartini at the plate I just realized I still have Runners on the base I need to fix that next pitch ball two two and0 here comes the pitch from wheeler that one was a little outside could have been called strike it was right on the edge of the Zone but umpire laid off that's ball three keratina might be taking this one right down the gut we'll see kind of feel like I'd like to see a rip if it's anywhere close to the Zone he should have swung on that one he takes it I had a feeling that wheeler was going to bring it right down the zone and he did but that's taken for strike one three balls one strike that's the 70th pitch of the game for wheeler here comes the 3-1 pitch terrible half swing on that inside low pitch kartini what are you thinking strike to the count is fool take a look at this this what are you doing man come on Batman kartini looks so much like Ben F flag I I refer to him as Batman here comes the 3-2 pitch little low in his side could have been strike three on the edge of that plate but umpire says no that's ball four so caratini does walk look how close this was so that Asos do have a base runner with one out kartini drawing the walk Ben gaml is going to come to the plate gaml actually had a pretty good at bat driving up the count full and then took a strike looking see if he can do better this time here comes the first pitch swinging on the very first one 96 inside fouled it down the third Baseline I might not be able to get through this inning guys it is now almost a quarter to nine I have to leave in a few minutes but like I said I will leave the the live score on the screen for you guys so you can continue to check the updates this one's hit to the left field side that's going to be a base hit by gaml kartini advances to Second good hit by gaml right through the gap Astros now have Runners on first and second with one out awesome that brings up Jake Meyers Jake Myers with a chance to do something Astros once again with Runners on first and second in scoring position with just one out first pitch to Myers he grounds it to third might be a double play to second but that's the only one they're able to get so luckily there's no double play ball there but the Astros do have Runners on the corners with two outs fielders Choice by Jake Meyers but because it was so far to the left side third baseman was not able to make the play quick enough to threaten a double play Shay whitcom comes to the plate he flew out in the third third inning he has an opportunity here to give the Astros their first RBI what is it about 90 ft away here's the first pitch he hits it hard to left field oh my gosh is it going to be off the wall oh it's going to drop that's going to be in this could be at least two runs it is the throw is too late Shay witcom all the way out to left field drops right in two-run score Shay witcom with the double brings in two runs kartini and Meyers score Myers all the way from first base Astros up two to nothing beautiful hit by Shay witcom now that's what I'm talking about the Astros managed to get Astros managed to get one run or two runs rather before I go to class awesome that's great stuff all right guys now Shay witam is on second base with two outs Alex bregman is up to bat and I've got to walk out the door in like two minutes bregman takes the first pitch swings fouls it back 85 miles hour wait a second strike two already wow okay 0 and two apparently while I was looking at the information on the screen and changing it up bregman got a strike so it's 0 and two with two outs runner on second two two and two strike three so that's out number three and that's the end of the inning and that's good right there that ends it for me I'm going to stop right here guys uh essentially what I'm going to do is I'm going to leave the the game uh live score on the screen for you all and I want to say thank you for being here I am sorry that I can't continue to call the game for the rest of the game because I've got to get to classes but like I said what you see on the screen right now I'm going to leave that up so you can see the live score and thank you so much for your subs for your likes the game tomorrow is going to be similar to today I'm going to be able to call about the first hour and then I'll have to go to class but game three with the Phillies I will be here to go uh over all that game I believe so I I think that game starts much earlier so there won't be a problem with me being here for the entire game before I go to school um until then uh I will chat with you guys again uh tomorrow for a little while but today I'll be in the live chat checking between breaks while um in between classes go stros and I will see you guys tomorrow tomorrow today in the chat tomorrow in person okay that's it signing out I'm going to turn my mic off here just in case have a great day enjoy the game and I'll see you in the live chat guys bye for e e e e e e e e e e e e e e for e e e e e e e e e e for e e for e e e e e e for e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e for e e e e e e e e e for

for for e e e e e e for e for e e e e e e e e e e e [Music] hello again everyone I am back home I decided to go ahead and leave the school because just wasn't feeling well apparently got a couple of people still tuned in although the game is finished it went to the 10th inning and then the Astros gave up a run I don't know the details yet so I'm going to check out the play byplay and give you a summary of the game right quick what I might actually do and stop the live stream now and then do a game summary a separate game summary another video for that it's likely what I will do but I was feeling rather hot actually I'm going to take my hat off now that I think about it I started feeling really hot and almost a little nauseous in my class after taking a break I decided to come on home I see uh Eric you had a couple of messages in the chat there you said it's a tough spot to be in stros if it was in htown I'd give you the win unfortunately it's in Philly yeah and you know the way I look at it is if if you're if you get to the ninth inning and the Phillies only have two runs you got to win that game you've absolutely got to win that game can't be giving up a game like that and here said uh you okay my friend um I'm so so I mean you probably know you've probably heard me say before I've got a um a serious condition with uh cancer apparently it started in my right kidney and before I found out about it it was a really large tumor found out about see June July August uh a little over two years ago and at that point they said I really needed surgery to have the tumor and the kidney taken out unfortunately it was so large that the cancer had started to get into my vein and that made made it impossible to have surgery essentially what they've done is they've started giving me a couple of different medicines one is a inhibitor an inhibitor that is supposed to Halt slash slow the growth of the tumor and hopefully even shrink it so that I can have surgery and the other medicine is just because of a side effect of the tumor I had a blood clot in my leg last year I had spent a couple of months in the hospital very dangerous situation but because of the ongoing threat of blood clots in my body I have to take blood thinners so I take blood thinners every day and I take this inhibitor every day but my feeling on a daily basis sometimes on an hourly basis fluctuates so I can be feeling okay one minute then a few minutes later suddenly I'm feeling very hot and nauseous and sometimes I go through seven several days of feeling good and more energy and then suddenly followed up by several days of feeling tired and crappy and like I'm ready to fall off the Earth or something Eric says definitely have heard about that we've had it in my family too my mom is now in remission but on test days I don't really feel like talking to you on test results yep you never know and to be honest I just uh got a new doctor last month because my long-term doctor he opened his own clinic and so obviously I can't go to see him because several reasons one is they don't have the equipment that's needed to scan me like CT scans which I have done every few months and um my new doctor basically said that he doesn't expect me to be around but maybe one to two years from right now and obviously that's not the kind of thing that people want to hear but he says if the medicine works then I have surgery and I'm really really really really lucky which is exactly what he said if I'm really really really really lucky maybe I'll live 10 more years but he thinks probably probably I should just go ahead and prepare to not be around after 2 years so in the next one to two years he thinks more than likely I'll be gone so I thought that by doing the Astros live stream it would accomplish a few things but one of the main things is trying to do something that I find enjoyable which is watch the Astros games instead of just sitting here watching them why not try to call them you know but I also have to study Japanese for my Visa and uh I can't miss too many days of classes it's not allowed to miss more than a certain percentage otherwise you start having trouble with immigration so that's where we stand on that but uh I think I'll just go ahead and do the game summary now instead of doing a separate video I'm thinking that I might catch a bus here in a few minutes and go sit in a nice cool environment at a cafe somewhere and uh work on my homework assignments try to get caught up on some of that if possible but let's take a look at the play-by-play scores scoring summary rather okay guys you already know that in the first three Innings there was some threat of the Philly scoring but they weren't able to do so and neither did the Astros Astros didn't really do much but the Astros did get a few hits it wasn't until the top of the fourth that the Astros got some points on the board Shay whitcom had a nice double to left field and that scored both kartini and Meyers that was an excellent inning great hit for whitcom put the Astros on gave them lead two to nothing but in the very next inning in the top or bottom of the fifth the Phillies got on the board with a solo home run by Brandon Marsh to left Center 391 ft bringing the Phillies within one run two to one in the bottom of the sixth ciano single to Center scoring Harper and that tied up the game so by the bottom of the 60 Phillies were able to tie it up Astros had many chances between the fifth and ninth inning at apparently they had five innings to just score one run they could have won the game just one run but they didn't they let it go into the 10th inning and weren't able to do anything in the 10th inning and of course Bryce Harper came up single to right scoring schwarber and ending the game 3 to2 Phillies Astros had eight hits and just scored two runs Phillies had nine scored three no errors for the Phillies but the Astros had two I'm not sure exactly what's going on with the Astros recently but they have made a lot of boo boos on the infield pitchers and fielders both very crazy but we look forward to tomorrow's game and before I get to that I did want to say Eric thanks for sharing with me I do hope that uh your mom mom continues to do well my mom had breast cancer and she went through a lot of ridiculous treatments and I basically destroyed her body and within just a few years she was gone that was several years ago that she passed away I also lost my grandmother to lung cancer I lost an aunt to cancer which spread all over her body after lots of treatments and surgeries my ex-girlfriend mother also died after getting cancer and went through lots of surgeries and medicines and right now have two friends one in New Zealand and another in fukoka which is not too far from Hiroshima they are both fighting cancer uh it just seems like I don't know what to say about it it just seems like um something that we should be able to do more about and just aren't so I place that blame at the feet of the government who controls the medical associations they're more interested in profits and money than helping people that's for sure government's always interested more in controlling people than helping people but let's take a look at the game tomorrow game two in Philadelphia this is a three- game series between the Astros and the Phillies Astros going to have to win the next two if they want to win this series Justin Verlander is scheduled to be on the mound right now he's an even three and three on the season had a pretty good outing for his first game back ER standing at 3.92 he's given up 56 hits in 62 Innings which is not good but he also has almost an equal number of strikeouts so it seems like 5050 whether somebody gets struck out or gets a hit he's going to be facing Aon nola nola is fairing a little bit better he's 116 11- six on the year with the 3.45 ER Astros have a better chance of hitting him tomorrow than they did of hitting wheeler today 159 Innings pitched 147 hits given up and uh 147 strikeouts so that's funny Aeron NOA has given up the exact same amount of hits as he has strikeouts as he's gotten strikeouts so I think the Astros have a chance to score some runs tomorrow we'll see as long as the bats show up that game is going to be starting at the same time as game one today so as long as I'm feeling up to it I will be calling the first few Innings if for some reason I feel bad but not bad enough to call the game then I might have to stay home from school but I really hope that I don't have to stay home from school because I can't afford to miss at any rate that's it for the go go tiger stros channel for today at least for this game I look forward to seeing you guys tomorrow morning hopefully I can get some rest catch up on my homework get some studies done some good studies and then watch the Astros start scoring some runs tomorrow right now in the bottom of the second the Mariners are tied up with Tampa Bay 1 to one the Rangers I don't see are the Rangers off today let me take a quick look and see yep I don't see uh a game for the Rangers today so they are off probably good for the Astros at least there's no chance for them winning and getting closer but let's hope that the Rays can beat up on the Mariners keep them away from the Astros they've got a guy on second base right now tied up at one one1 and that's it thank guys so much for listening in and I will see you tomorrow have a good one Jo stroes
