Crazy stuff (from The Athletic):

In the second inning of Houston's 9-2 win over Texas on Wednesday, Astros pitcher Luis Garcia struck out Nathaniel Lowe, Ezequiel Duran and Brad Miller on nine pitches, recording what is colloquially known as an immaculate inning. Praise be.

In the seventh, Astros pitcher Phil Maton saw the same hitters ... and also struck them out on nine pitches. Just like that, double the perfection.

It's the first time in MLB history two immaculate innings have occurred on the same day — and this happened on the same day, in the same game, against the same team, to the same hitters. How?

I watched it live The Astro announcers noticed it with Garcia but didn't even mention Matons until an inning later They are strange to watch Common  to both were first pitch good quality strikes and the batters then helped by second pitch fouls for the strike twos Down 0-2 Garcia and Maton threw outside the zone with each batter protecting on his 0-2 whiff times 6
Truly a quirky thing to see Try to get a you tube of both Its worth the look takes  just a minute

Big fan of the Brewers City Connect uniforms. Love the hat and saw there was a shirt with the grill logo.

I like the colors.  The design is a bit to "Backyard Baseball" children's video game for me.  But I think that's what most of these uniforms are.  I love what the Brewers have with their standard uniforms.  Very clean.

They're neat, but the Washington Nationals are easily the best in the league.

Agree, for the City concept, I dig it. But wouldn't want them as a full time set.

Now once this is done, if they threw a baby blue alternate in the regular design, I'd be all for it.

The grill logo is the best part. Personally love them

Disappointed in the Brewers City Connect design. The hat logo is brutal.

The colors are great.  The grill is a fun touch.  But I agree the hats stink out loud. 

At least its not the Dodgers

[PGsHeroes32]

Brewers uni's especially the Hats should put an auto loss on their record.

[BrewCity83]

Brewers uni's especially the Hats should put an auto loss on their record.

We'll take a loss on the hats in exchange for 5 wins for the grill logo patch.

Well, I don't have to denounce my Twins fandom.

Kirilloff is back.

God is good.

You are starting to sound like Nads and "my Panthers".

Brewers DFA Lorenzo Cain today. On the day he reaches 10 years of service time.

[Jockey]

With a tough series in Houston this weekend - why are the Sox letting Tim Anderson languish in the Minors all week? So they can keep Leury Garcia and his .190 avg. in the lineup?

This team is so far out of synch that they will be lucky to make the Playoffs if things don't change.

And his on base % is barely over .200 but TLR loves the guys. Does Garcia have pictures he's blackmailing LaRussa with?

Mike trout is back to rampaging on baseballs

Mike trout is back to rampaging on baseballs

His PED supplier finally cooked up the right formula again.

[MU82]

Yep. And soon enough the Angels will be out of contention for anything, so it will be time to wage another Mike Trout For MVP campaign.

Judge will need to massively slow down.

But Trouts numbers are good for even Trouts standards, kinda should be in the discussion.

Leads MLB in OPS, has the second highest OPS+ of his career(1 shy of last years when he had only 117 ABs).

[Jockey]

I find it fascinating that some here only are able to come up with one criticism for Trout.

That is that he has teammates who are not good players.

Guy is insane.

I'll pay money just to watch Mike Trout
