As has been the case in the entire world throughout 2020, not a lot makes sense. Who would have ever guessed the Houston Astros would play a Tuesday doubleheader at home followed by three days off when games had originally been scheduled, and then come back on Saturday and host another twin bill? Wednesday and Thursday’s contests against the Angels were postponed out of precaution due to Hurricane Laura and then the series opener with the Oakland A’s on Friday was called off right before first pitch after both teams stood in solidarity in response to the social justice initiative across America.
