My 12 year old son could have gone 1st to 3rd on that!

Seriously? The 3rd Baseman had to run the ball down into the LF corner...and we move 90 feet? That is disgusting. Is it football season yet?
You know when you get a look from Seager like wtf were you doing, you f-d up. To answer your question, almost. Going to the game in 4 days.

Omar on first with 2 outs and Seager up. Of course they have shift on so Bregman is way over in the SS hole. Seager hits a ground ball with about a 47 mph exit velocity right down the line but it somehow ends up about 150 ft. beyond 3B down where they used have bullpens in foul territory. Even though Bregman has to run for about 8 seconds to retrieve the ball, Omar inexplicable stops at second and almost gets Seager caught in a run down as he was thinking double all the way.

That's brutal for a guy like Seager who has fans down his throat where an extra double could pad that OPS a little.

Omar owes him a steak dinner and like 25k.

They could have also been the first team to be no-hit in consecutive games as well as the first team to be no-hit three times in one season.

The season is not yet over, I have confidence that this team will set some records in futility..... maybe untouchable...

The M's are now 1-12 vs the Astros this season and the team batted a robust .084 vs the Astros in the series this weekend. Seager with a squibber and a home run kinda ruined Verlander's would be special day.... I guess you could call this legitimately "humiliation". I can't see much more domination.... we are a AAA team..... possibly.

The #4 spot is still well within our grasp but the damn Royals keep losing. O's and Tigers are in a league of their own.

Caught a little of this debacle after checking out and getting on the road. It looks like MLB.com caught Seager’s ‘WTF’ moment...
