It what could easily be argued was a stretch of the most difficult baseball on the schedule this year for the Astros, they just kept doing what they do: win. Going back to June 23 when we argued that the next month or so could be tough for the 'Stros, they went 23-5. They won every series but two and went 4-0 against the Mets, 5-2 against the Yankees and, the latest, 3-0 against the Mariners.
It's been quite a month capped off by five straight wins against the aforementioned Yankees and Mariners. They swept both games of a doubleheader in Houston against New York and then flew into Seattle to take three from what previously was the hottest team in baseball. Let's discuss.Seattle appeared to be about as hyped up for a series as they have been in a while. They have not made the playoffs since 2001, the longest streak of any professional sports organization.
Verlander has said he wants to play until 45, but that's not what we mean here. In the second game of the Mariners series, the ace threw 101 pitches over seven innings of work. As is typical of Verlander, he seemed to get stronger as the game went along. That was evidenced by 97 on the radar gun on his last pitching, striking out one final M's player with the bases loaded. But just before that, he hit 99 mph. He has not hit 99 in his entire time in Houston.
