00:00Astros beat the Mariners 11-3.

00:03Christian Walker breaking the tie on Space City Home Network.

00:07Christian Walker delivers a deep drive to left,

00:11and the Astros have their first lead of the day.

00:14Off the roof of the Astros' bullpen in left field,

00:18and it's a 4-3 Houston lead.

00:21Yeah, they still lost the series,

00:24and the only reason we ran that clip was because we like saying Space City Network.

00:30That's also why, and I was prepping myself for tonight

00:33because Christian Walker returns to Arizona tonight,

00:36where, of course, he spent his career before going to Houston this year,

00:40so that'll be dropping the crumbs for what's coming up in a little while.

00:44Like Bellinger against the Cubs.

00:46Tigers beat the Rangers 2-1.

00:49Of course, Scooble 6-2, 3-4 hits, 1 run, 11 Ks,

00:53but he didn't factor in the decision.

00:54It was tied in the eighth.

00:56It's Matt Veerling giving the Tigers the lead for good on ESPN.

01:01And that's Lace up the middle.

01:03It's going to play Flavor Torres.

01:05Matt Veerling delivers the biggest hit of the season for him,

01:09and the Tigers now lead it 2-1.

01:14Yeah, I watched a lot of that game,

01:17and this guy Scooble's a freak.

01:20He is a freak.

01:23There's no question about that.

01:24He's unbelievable.

01:26Second player since 1901 to have 160-plus Ks, 20 or less walks,

01:32and a sub-2-2 ERA through his first 20 starts of the season.

01:36Only Kershaw did that in 2014.

01:38Listen, it's not even Kershaw-type stuff.

01:42It seems to me like it's like watching Cy Young or something.

01:46It literally – he throws the ball from – you know what it reminds me of?

01:52What was the guy's name?

01:54Sid Finch?

01:55Is that what his name was?

01:56Remember the guy that brought the ball from behind?

01:58And it was the fake Mets pitcher?

02:00Remember they had the guy on Sports Illustrated, the fake pitcher?

02:04I think he brings the ball from way back, you know,

02:09when he's throwing it, like back in the day.

02:12Like I'm talking about guys pitching in 1900.

02:15The way he pitches, it's like he just rears back and cocks his arm

02:21and throws it from all the way behind him.

02:23It's insane watching that guy pitch.

02:26It's like he's unhittable.

02:29You can't hit him.

02:31He really is.

02:32And then I saw them saying this morning,

02:34they already have him leaving Detroit.

02:36I saw some guys.

02:37I think it was Buster only, whoever was just like –

02:39he's going to be the first –

02:41he's going to be the first $400 million pitcher in two years

02:44when he's a free agent.

02:45And Detroit's not going to be able to afford that.

02:48How?

02:49How are they not going to be able to afford that?

02:50How are they not?

02:50They got tons of money.

02:52How are they not going to be able to pay him?

02:54They've paid guys in the past.

02:55Makes no sense.

02:56They're the first team.

02:57They're such a good team now.

02:59They are here and now.

03:02They are legit, dangerous, winning ball club with a really good manager

03:09and front office.

03:11And they're loaded with talent.

03:13They had six all-stars.

03:15And where's he going to go?

03:17Play for the Yankees and lose?

03:18I mean, the Yankees are fair to Midland.

03:22The Tigers are better right now in every facet.

03:26Front office, field, manager, everything.

03:30Would you take Hinch or would you take Aaron Boone?

03:32Are you kidding me?

03:34Hinch is even better at cheating.
