Game Recap: Houston’s epic, thirteen-inning comeback, retold via comparisons to players from Astros’ history

Tonight’s game was a ride. Wade Miley, who entered game 1 of this penultimate homestand with the third-best ERA in the AL behind Justin Verlander and Gerrit Cole, had an incredibly rough start. It looked like it was going to be a boring, uncompetitive game, so I decided to take mhatter’s advice and try something different to spice things up: a game recap where each inning was compared to a different player from Astros history.

It was a fun way to keep involved in what looked like it might be a lopsided game, but then things got weird from there.
