Astros Blanked at Home by White Sox
With 36,747 in the house at Minute Maid Park, the Houston Astros got blanked by the Chicago White Sox, 7-0.
Since starting to write over here at Crawfish Boxes, I’ve been tasked with the Saturday recaps. Despite winning roughly sixty percent of the time, it seems the Astros are unable to take the gold home during the games in which I’m assigned with the game capsule. In preparation for this article, I noticed that resident ace Justin Verlander (8-2, 1.94) should have given me a better-than-average chance at finally writing about a Saturday victory. Houston’s punchless Saturdays are not just limited to my tenure here either...They’re 3-8 after today’s debacle (and 37-17 otherwise).
