There’s a new King.
**KING COLE.**
That is all.

Zach Cole is the greatest Cole in Astros history
My boy loves winning, hates lobsters, and reminded Jose that it’s ok to hit HRs again
Thank you Dana!
That was fun! Let’s do it again tomorrow!
Good game. Let’s keep this going all weekend and into next week.
Hell of a debut. No pressure, kid
We needed this so bad. Now let’s hope they can keep it up tmmr.
Jason Alexander 🤝 Colton Gordon
Getting 3.0+ IP saves
Do you have your tickets?

Future MVP, ALCS MVP, WS MVP, batting champ, Silver Slugger, Gold Glover and HoFer Zach Cole had the night of his life.
I missed the first four innings while at a work event but I started following during the 5th when the game was really busted open. What a debut for Zach Cole. Is that the spark this team needed? IDK, they’ve definitely fooled me plenty of times so far this season, but hitting 80 wins feels good.
Zach Cole played like a savior

I would die for Zach Cole
Yeah go ahead and build the statue
Rookies getting it done tonight!!!!
I don’t know where his career goes from here, but Zach Cole just had the time of his life tonight and I hope this is the start of something great for him. Rookies taking control on the mound from the first pitch to the last. A well-needed win for this team.
For those who were irate that Peña wasn’t in the lineup? I think we handled business just fine tonight. He’ll be back tomorrow.
We’re in the home stretch in a tight divisional race. Let’s finish this strong, starting with Diesel on the mound to get us that series dub.
Watching Cole’s interview, I see why he’s so popular with his AA crew. Guy is a fuckin grade A lad.
Zach Cole shouting out his AA brothers and Bobby.
And Carlos Correa having a conversation with Cole’s parents.
Oh thank god
Maybe Cam Smith needs more time in the minors to get his groove back.
Reminder of what I said a week ago

I gave up for the first time after yesterday bc the offense has just been dead/inconsistent. Zach Cole gave us that big home run they needed desperately. I have a glimmer of hope again. 🙂
Well we can beat the braves at least
Glad to see our new Cole-train 🚂🚂🚂
Finn for the win!

2.250 OPS. Give Zach Cole the AL MVP.
It’s 9:00 PM on a Friday night and I’m not bummed over an Astros lost, wtf am I supposed to do for the rest of the night?!
First game of a 27 game winning streak.
Ain’t nobody dooming tonight! Finally an exciting game.
Also with the mariners tonight…

And Altuve’s bat woke up! Hail to our short king 👑 ❤️
