    Jose Altuve scorched a ground-rule double THROUGH the Astros’ scoreboard

    Houston Astros hitters are doing some serious damage of scoreboards as of late.

    You had Yordan Alvarez smash a ball into the Tropicana Field scoreboard during batting practice that broke it. And on Friday night, Jose Altuve took a Garrett Crochet fastball and smashed it into the Astros’ old-school style scoreboard at Minute Maid Park, hitting it so hard that it knocked out one of the panels showing the New York Yankees’ score.

    That’s a ground rule double, of course, and a funny trend for a team that looks like a contender yet again.

    Here’s that moment from Friday night:
