    I am pretty sure tomorrow's game is on DirecTv. It is being broadcast on Fox Southwest (according to their schedule), All the Fox games are on DirecTv.

    LOL...I'm listening to 1190 am. Thanks. I'm listening to it on this weird camping gizmo. It has a two speed fan, a radio, a light, a siren, and a flourescent all built in. You can run all this stuff at once. I got it as a gift. It's hilarious!

    I didn't want to use my regular receiver.

    By the way, I haven't lived in an apartment for years...hehe.

    thanks

    haha, I figured you probably didn't after I posted that.

    This is the first year in Dallas isn't it? Maybe they knew I was moving up here. :D

    Hey, I think it'll be on up here tomorrow. According to tvguide.com, it's on Dallas Charter cable. They don't have a link for AT&T Digital Cable though.

    Bagwell is on pace to hit 234 home runs this season.

    I know it's kind of early to talk about this stuff, but if the 3-5 spots in the rotation are a problem, if we are way ahead or contending for a playoff spot come trade deadline, do you think we would make a move for a starting pitcher and who do you guys think would be available?


    By the way, Blum just homered, damn this game is kicking ass.

    You're right bobrek. Wednesday is ESPN's night to broadcast baseball, and the Astros are not on there either. It is very frustrating being an Astros fan and not living in Houston:mad:

    2 home runs per game x 162.

    324 hrs...my bad.

    You could try the live video from mlb.com. I watched it a bit during their free trial and the quality, while O.K., did not seem to be worth the $79.95 fee.

    I'll be subscribing to the MLB package again this year.

    This is what pisses me off the most:mad: :mad: :mad:

    I am paying $139 for MLB Pass on DirecTv, if the freakin game can be seen on a computer, why then can't it be shown on a television?

    I am seriously considering a letter to "whomever it may concern" but feel it not a worthwhile effort (Bud Selig is the devil).

    Bruce Chen was awesome. What a pickup. Oh, wait....


    On a side note, the Astros are badass.

    Hehe, by giving up two runs in a third of inning, Chen's current ERA for the season is a whopping 54.00.
