March 27Mar 27 OK, Bitches... It's almost April. Let's get this shit started.... Jordan ain't shit. Altuve ain't shit. Hader ain't shit. Pena probably aint shit. Framber is ok. Rake Myers is a killer, but he ain't shit. Fire everybody. 1-0 ain't shit. Y'all some hoes and ain't shit.

Got to 2 strikes in all 3 counts and then they just kept fouling shit off. Not a good performance of course, but buckling down to get the next 3 guys to K/Sac Fly/K is pretty close to ideal when you're looking at bases juiced, no outs. and tenuous 3-0 lead.
March 27Mar 27 I wish we could have a routine stress-free ninth inning with a three run lead. I'm not terribly impressed with hader. Edited March 27Mar 27 by Focht Up

I found a coupon code and it gave 50% off 2 year subscriptions during signup. Code = THEGIFT I ended up getting VPN + SmartDNS service for $59.50 for 2 years. I could have picked the SmartDNS only for $34.50 for 2 years, but decided to get one with the VPN as well. And it worked perfectly after I got it set up and the MLB app stopped being a POS.
March 27Mar 27 Mets broadcast with high praise for Framber Valdez: "I think he has the best curveball of any left handed pitcher in the game"
March 28Mar 28 I listened to their broadcast for the whole game. They called it pretty straight. They were very complimentary of the Astros. got a kick out of them hammering keith hernandez, especially Ron Darling. Evidently he is moving to South Carolina for something.

March 28Mar 28 Those new ACs working well, that bitch was cold. It's fun seeing all the new faces in the line up, not fun seeing the ones behind the bar.
March 28Mar 28 Espada got a question about Hader’s shakiness and what he “saw”? His response “I got one of the best closers in the game. That’s how I saw it.” surly thread :
March 28Mar 28 I think a Hader outing is the health equivalent of smoking two packs of cigarettes while drinking a pint.

I had the same issue last year for a while and then a few weeks into the season I was able to watch on my desktop with Express VPN but never really able to watch on my phone iirc.

Theoretically you should, but I know I had trouble getting it to work last year. https://support.unlocator.com/article/184-how-to-setup-iphone They do offer a 1 week free trial if you wanted to try it out. (wait until Monday if you want to start the free trial though as tomorrow's game is on Apple TV+ where MLB.tv won't help you, and Saturday's is on FOX.... actually, assuming you're in Texas, I guess you can do a trial run this weekend getting it set up using the Rangers as your guinea pig (as their blackout territory is the same as the Astros in Texas)

And it worked perfectly after I got it set up and the MLB app stopped being a POS. Glad it worked for you. It really is the way to go. And yeah, they have options that are dirt cheap. I usually go with a monthly plan and cancel after the World Series since I only use it for baseball and don't need it from Nov-Mar, but last year they had a 1 year special that, at the time was 70% off, and ended up paying $16 for the DNS package for 12 months. Combined with the half-off deal I got on MLB.tv by being a member of the MLBPAA, my all-in cost for a season's worth of all MLB games was $116...same price someone a few pages back is paying for 1 month to be able to watch the Astros.

March 28Mar 28 How do we get Dezenzo and Smith in the line up at the same time? Have we gave up on either of them playing 3B? or Do we move Altuve in to 2B and let one play LF?

March 28Mar 28 That felt like a Deja vu game of most of our games last year. Barely score to support our best pitcher into crossing your fingers hader doesn’t fuck up the game. Almost did.

Didn’t score a ton of runs but the quality of at bats from Walker and Paredes was nice. They didn’t just go up there and swing at bad pitches early in the at bat.
March 28Mar 28 Any tips for getting an Apple TV+ trial? I doubt I’m eligible after subscribing at some point in the last year. Will moving a decimal (period) in my email address work? Edited March 28Mar 28 by UTexasFight
March 28Mar 28 The game will/should be on thetvapp.to website. Click on MLB at the top of the page. 98% of the time it works perfectly but every once in a while it has buffering issues. But it’s the best way I know to watch without a subscription or a jailbroken fire stick.
