Puerto Rican megastar Bad Bunny stopped by to perform at Houston Astros’ Minute Maid Park on September 1 and 2. The concert was a resounding success, thanks to a sold-out crowd on both nights.But when the Houston Astros hosted the Texas Rangers two days later, the lush-green field was found in an extremely sad state. There were patches all over and markings of the stage area were still visible. It appeared pathetic; not what you would expect from a major league playing field.Talkin’ Baseball@TalkinBaseball_The outfield conditions at Minute Maid Park are not great after a Bad Bunny concert was held there5986244The outfield conditions at Minute Maid Park are not great after a Bad Bunny concert was held there https://t.co/vEYtP7T2Iw"The outfield conditions at Minute Maid Park are not great after a Bad Bunny concert was held there" - Talkin' BaseballJared McLeod@jaredgmcleod@TalkinBaseball_ Grounds crew must be pissed510@TalkinBaseball_ Grounds crew must be pissedJohn and 500 others@J0hnathonSm1th@TalkinBaseball_ How does the league allow this to happen144@TalkinBaseball_ How does the league allow this to happenCaleb (days w/o Gleyberbomb: 15)@itsgleyberday@J0hnathonSm1th @TalkinBaseball_ They like money25@J0hnathonSm1th @TalkinBaseball_ They like moneyConcerts are a great way for ballparks to generate additional revenue.

That makes absolutely zero senseNot ensuring that the post-concert field conditions get corrected before a game is unacceptable by major league standards.There’s a way of doing things. Concerts aren’t the problem, but lack of proper planning certainly is.⛱️salty dodger fan (92-42)🇺🇲@yaboidany2115@TalkinBaseball_ If a team is going to host a concert, at least do it when they start a long road trip in order to fix everything by the time they're back home.3@TalkinBaseball_ If a team is going to host a concert, at least do it when they start a long road trip in order to fix everything by the time they're back home.Is anything going to change in that regard though? Not in the slightest, and not anytime soon. Lady Gaga is scheduled to perform at Minute Maid Park on September 13, followed by Billy Joel on September 23.Houston Astros hold on for narrow win amid controversy and poor field conditions Despite the poor field conditions, Martín Maldonado’s second-inning RBI single ensured a narrow 1-0 win for the Houston Astros. The game wasn't without its fair share of controversy.The Astros had a chance to add to their lead in the eighth. They had runners on first and third with zero outs. Yordan Alvarez hit a pop fly in foul territory that Rangers first baseman Nathaniel Lowe caught. Jose Altuve, who was on third, dashed towards home.Lowe got the ball to catcher Jonah Heim, who applied the tag before a sliding Altuve tapped the plate. The Astros challenged the decision, but it was upheld.Was it the right call? Not at all. Replays suggested that Altuve had made it in time.Jomboy Media@JomboyMediaJosé Altuve was called out after trying to tag on a shallow pop up and the Astros lost the challenge3457112José Altuve was called out after trying to tag on a shallow pop up and the Astros lost the challenge https://t.co/cteI8lbn5RFour weeks remain until the postseason gets underway. With a 11-game cushion between themselves and the second-placed Mariners in the AL West, the Astros have plenty of breathing space.
