Astros Bullpen Falters As Tigers Take Game 2

Your Houston Astros season ends early with another home loss in the playoffs. This time the villains are A.J. Hinch and the most random team from Detroit. Paul breaks down one last game for you this season as he tries to explain what happened. The Astros have been so dominant but playoff baseball isn’t for the weak or fairweather, this loss hurts but there is no reason to sound any kind of alarm and say it’s all over. The off-season is sure to bring some change and the Astros are still lined-up to compete for next season. Stay tuned for some more podcasts to recap your Astros this season as now we will have a lot more time on our hands. Remember, the trolls are out. If you see a troll: remember their lives are very sad and the only way they can come close to being happy is by being hateful. Feel bad for them but don’t feed ‘em. You have enough hardware to not stress about their baseball takes that they are too dumb to have themselves. Be the best that you can be. Keep you head up, kid.Vamos vamos Astros.
