Houston scored six two-out runs in the eighth inning, overcoming deficits of 8-3 and 9-5 for its best win of the season. Josh Hader got the save.

[MLB @MLB]

The @Astros score SIX runs with 2 outs in the 8th to take the lead!

[The Launch Angle @LaunchAngleHOU]

Somehow, this is a tied game.

[The Launch Angle @LaunchAngleHOU]

Sigh.

Spencer Arrighetti's 2Ks in the 3rd

[Alessandro Zilio @callmeAtoZ]

Really good analysis in here about what's going on with Burrows. 9 degrees lower of an arm angle is a major change and even if shapes stay the same, pitches behave differently. Don't know if the Astros lab tried to concoct more VAA from his FB, don't like it one bit.

Does Mike Burrows have one of the worst four-seamers in baseball at this moment?

Yes, he does.
