The giant sucking sound you hear is the Astros offense descending into the maelstrom.
Nine runs in five games. Tonight they actually achieved their season high in hits, seven, but three ground into double plays killed any semblance of momentum. They Astros only had two runners in scoring position all night. “Slugger” Yordan Alvarez is 1-16 on the season and tonight he was 0-4 with two Ks.
The Giants opened the scoring in the second inning after Astros starter Hayden Wesneski walked the eight and nine hitters to open the inning who scored on a Willy Adames double.
