Yes, inkstainedretch is in Houston covering the Eagles, but like a lot of Philadelphians, he was a little distracted.
It was a night when Philadelphians and Houstonians suffered whiplash, motion sickness, vertigo, and the emotional overload of agonies and ecstasies. Millions of people split their screens, picture-in-pictured, and otherwise tried to serve two major-league masters as their cities’ most significant teams met at each others’ municipalities.I was one of them — working in Houston at a football game, living and dying on every pitch in Philadelphia.
At 8:25, the Texans finished matriculating with a 2-yard touchdown pass to Teagan Quitoriano for a 7-0 lead. At 9:15, Jeremy Peña bombed Sydergaard out of the game with a solo home run for a 2-1 lead in the fourth inning as Fletcher Cox was leaving the field with an injury. Double damn . At 10:17, the Eagles held the Texans to a field goal as José Alvarado escaped a sixth-inning jam, and then a streaker ran onto the baseball field. Triple-whee, I guess.
