Houston Astros Visit Kansas City Royals — Series Preview

Hopefully, the Astros take these guys seriously. The majors’ last “worst team,” the Oakland A’s, just took two of three from the good guys at MMP.

In that series, the Athletics opened with consecutive victories, first shutting out the Astros, 4-0 on Monday, then adding a 6-2 victory on Tuesday. Just when we were collectively getting ready to jump off a bridge (going by the comments in the GT, anyway), Hunter Brown and company came along and held the A’s hitless and scoreless until one out in the ninth. Ryan Pressly got the final two outs, also allowing a pair of runs on a pair of hits and a walk.
