Game 264 - Houston Astros at Los Angeles Angels
September 13 at Angel Stadium in Anaheim, CA
ROOT Sports
This looked like an Angels' win up until the top of the 9th when Houston rallied for five runs against Huston Street and won 5-3.
The Los Angeles closer got the first two outs without much of a problem (infield pop out, strike out), then was 1-2 and 0-2 on the next two hitters. They both reached - Preston Tucker solo home run & George Springer triple - then Jose Altuve singled in a run to make it 3-2.
Carlos Correa hit a shot to second base and Taylor Featherston made a nice stop, but the ball got stuck in his glove (probably doesn't get the speedy Correa anyway). Jed Lowrie followed with a 3-run home run down the right field line that just got out (Kole Calhoun nearly made the catch) and incredibly the Astros had a 5-3 lead.
I'm not going to say I like watching the Angels blow a three-run lead in the ninth at home because I REALLY, REALLY like watching the Angels blow a three-run lead in the ninth at home.
All that was missing were dozens of shots of Mike Scioscia on the Los Angeles bench making his expired milk face.
Mute Mix
I saw Alan Ashby was handling the play-by-play, and I've already had plenty of Ashby for one baseball season, so it turned into a Mute Mix Sunday afternoon/evening.
Morning After Cuts - Skybox
Sanctuary - Tim Reynolds
Random classical tracks
Purple - Stone Temple Pilots
70s/80s mix
Weezer - Weezer
Forever Gold Live - Carlos Santana
Random tracks - The Temptations

Early Saturday afternoon first pitch after a night game/long night for me, we're going Mute mix.
As always, these are actual albums/tracks that were played on actual tape players.
Since we're on the subject of muting things, I will say this about the YES crew and in particular, play-by-play fella Michael Kay:
I have not been horrified at the things Michael Kay has said this year. In fact, I have very nearly not noticed Michael Kay. In fact, I may be baking some Michael Kaykes in my (neighbor's) kitchen right now.
House of the Holy - Led Zeppelin
* I'd like to take this brief moment to say goodbye to an old friend. We officially lost my Houses of the Holy tape early today at the age of 42. He lived a good life & he's survived by his lovely wife Maryanne and their two kids, currently unnamed.
The tape played one final side and then made some gurgling sounds before passing.
Appalachian Memories - various artists
Sailing to Denver - Sailing to Denver
Various tracks - COLOR
Blood, Sweat & Beers - Bastard Suns
Random live tracks - Radiohead
When She Flies - Dolly Parton

Games 177 & 178 - New York Yankees at Boston Redsox
July 11-12 at Fenway Park in Boston, MA
The Yankees-Redsox rivalry can be exhausting - long games, insistence that this single game is the most important game in the history of organized sport, and then tomorrow's will be as well, etc... - for fans. I'm sure the players don't find the games to be any more stressful than the other 140 or so they play. But I sometimes need a break from this rivalry.
Really, it's a half-break because I watch games with the sound off.
For Saturday's game (5-3 Boston win) and Sunday's (Yankees, 8-6) here's what I listened to for the 8 or so hours. Call it the Mute Mix.
