Verlander walks two with one out in the top of the second but Sandy Leon's single
was wasted when Dustin Pedroia was thrown out at second---still, the run scored
by Mitch Moreland counts, 2-1, Astros, mid-second . . .

Hanley Ramirez's two out double down the left field line goes for naught.

I think that is the first time I have ever seen Marwin fail to put the ball in play in that situation.

Chris Sale out of the game after a double and a walk in the bottom of the sixth, Joe Kelly in the game

at shortstop bobbles a possible double play ball by Springer, gets a force at second . . . 7-2, Astros

Really didn't expect Springer to start the post season with 3K's either.
