Episode Notes

The Astros had perhaps their most satisfying series win of the season, taking two of three from their intrastate rival Texas Rangers while staying afloat in the AL West.

Tyler Stafford and The Athletic's Chandler Rome break down the series win, Spencer Arrighetti's excellent performance and his powerful quote after it before analyzing Jose Altuve's oblique injury and what it means for the rest of the Astros' roster.
