    Online registration for tickets to the Astros series with the Yankees and Red Sox began today at 10 am and ends Monday, February 11 at noon CST. I'm pretty excited about seeing the Yanks and the Sox for the first time ever at MMP.

    Here is a link to the Astros website for more information and where you register for the opportunity to purchase tickets -

    i sort of agree....altho, as a season ticket holder, i get them at the regular price...makes u think that they should discount the Pirates and Nationals games

    I'm hoping for a Beckett/Roy O pitching match-up when the Sox come to town -
    or a Roy O vs. whoever the Yankees top pitcher is (esp. if they somehow get Santana) - that would be absolutely sick to see.

    roy o vs santana would be all i could ask for in a ball game. i always wanted to see roy vs pedro when martinez was actually good but it never came about.

    Roy O has a no hitter vs the Yanks Santana/Pettitte/Musina/Chamberlin or any Yankee has no chance :D

    I've signed up for this, but I am not sure if I'll be able to make it back to H-Town or not, but I'm sure I'll find some family that will want to go if I am lucky enough to win.

    I am absolutely pumped that I am going to get to see the Astros first 4 games this year, and that opening day Roy O vs. Jake Peavy matchup should be great.

    That's badass - unfortunately I didn't win the drawing so I didn't get any tickets, I'll probably just try and pick some up later on as the games approach (e-bay or scalpers).

    I bought some to each series, too.

    It wasn't easy...they released tickets in batches as best I could tell. So it was kinda sporadic as to availability within the time frame I was on trying to get tickets.

    I'll have to console myself by sitting in the dugout of a local Division I baseball team :p
