Official Rangers @ Astros thread

[Castor27]

Well lets see if we can get back on track and win the Silver Boot.

Pitching Probables:

6-27 -- Benoit (2-3, 5.21) vs, Rosario (1-0, 1.50)

6-28 -- Mounce (0-1, 3.60) vs. Robertson (5-3, 5.72)

6-29 -- Ramos (1-1, 5.59) vs. Villone (0-0, 1.46)


Fearless Prediction- After receiving the Silver Boot trophy, Drayton McLane will promptly try to trade it for another starter and some cash.

[Uprising]

hmm...what was wrong with my thread?;) It's like 4 down the list.
Anyways, let's hope the Rangers can do their duty and get our Astros back on track...

[eric.81]

Aaaaahhhhhhhh.... just what the doctor ordered: A three game set with the worst pitching in baseball. Thank god!

The Stros' are hurting right now and its a good thing we play the Rangers...

Although, I only expect us to win 2 of 3...

[Uprising]

Early game today. 3:05pm. A bunch of CC.net'ers are having a blast right now preparing for the game, that is if they are going. Damn i am envious. Oh well, catch it on www.ktrh.com's (http://www.ktrh.com) Live audio feed. (the game)

Big Rice Owl influence this weekend at MMP. Before today's game there is a pre-game ceremony honoring the 2003 National Champion Rice Owl baseball team, and then tomorrow former Rice Owl pitcher Mario Ramos is starting for the Rangers. Plus I think one of the Astros outfielders used to play for Rice :D ....

Go Owls, Go 'Stros!!!

[fatman510]

Mounce is no hitting the Stros

Hopefully I just jinxed him :D

[fatman510]

sweet it worked!

you can all thank me now :)

[rockets-#1]

What the hell????? Jeriome Robertson pitched 6 shutout innings today. What parallel dimension did I get warped to???

[fatman510]

Stros win 2-0
Win: Robertson (6-3)
Hold: Lidge (11)
Hold: Dotel (17)
Save: Wagner (22)

Loss: Mounce (0-2)

Robertson had a great outing and Lidge finally got it back together.
Good game, but I wish the offense would produce more

[BALLhog 247 365]

cubs lose...hopefully stl will too and houston regains soul lead of central

Robertson is 4-0 with a 3.7 ERA or so in his last 7 starts. The guy has been pitching solidly for quite some time now. He just has difficulty going deep in games, and he has difficulty getting any run support (like today for example).

[Uprising]

Great game, and well pitched. I fell asleep around the 4th inning and awoke to the sound of the radio guy yelling as Wagner won the game. :D

[Uprising]

If you are listening to the game through KTRH live audio feed...
Did anyone else suddenly lose the feed after the first pitch or so? I can't get it to come through anymore, i hope its my computer and not ktrh.com's feed, meaning they have now got it to stop playing during astros games... :(
oh well, i am going to houston on wednesday!!!! Guess i can watch games there. :cool:

[fatman510]

I'm not watching the game on tv (mlb gamecast) so I couldnt tell what happened but did Bagwell have a chance to score on Hidalgo's double??

Thanks

Cool, hopefully they will write you back soon. I really want the feed back, i hope they aren't doing it because it is an MLB game.

well, that was my 2000th post.

[Uprising]

well, i guess they are no longer going to play the astros games...that sucks. I am only getting the feed when they are playing their "ads" for the station. that sucks.

Same here

[Uprising]

Damnit, another homerun!! 3-3, Palmeiro hits one deep.

2 of the 3 hits by the Rangers were homeruns!!! ARGH!

[fatman510]

&*&$ Arod with a freakin triple to put the Rangers ahead by two runs.

Dotel is tired, this is the third game in a row that he has pitched I think

[Uprising]

damnit....5-2. well, i am going to sleep now, gotta get up for work in the morning (its late here, i am not some wierdo sleeping this earlier...houston time etc.)
I hope our luck changes through the next inning. damn.

To think we are getting out pitched by the Rangers.

[fatman510]

:( Jeez we are playing bad lately

[finalsbound]

Golly geez guys! So mad after we still won the Silver Boot!

:rolleyes:

[Roc Paint]

Yeah, the Rangers really handed us the boot.

[Uprising]

man...we lose at home to the rangers....ugh. We need to win a series... THank god for that winning streak we had to bring us up to the top of the division with the cards and cubs, otherwise we would be going no where, the teams are all playing the same.

wins are more important: The Houston Astros may have won the Silver Boot, but that brought them little solace in the wake of an 8-5 loss to the Texas Rangers on Sunday that closed out the Lone Star Series in front of 38,704 fans at Minute Maid Park.
