Good job by the Astros. Also, I have a question for anyone that knows. I haven't listened to Astros radio in years, but I'm currently listening. What happened to Tom Franklin and the 10th inning show?
I think he was replaced a long while ago. All I know is that he's still doing play-by-play for UH football and basketball.
wish our catchers would shoot who ever is stealing second base. ("hook" reference) just seems like we never catch anyone stealing! ticks me off. other than that, if we had one more big bat and a better reliever, something money can buy easily, we would be tied for this division.
Snyder has caught 36% of would be base-runners. Castro is only at 7%, but was catching 37% as a rookie.
I could live that, almost, if they were getting on base reasonably well. But prior to last nights game, I read that combined our catchers have an ops of .513, last in the majors. http://mlb.sbnation.com/2012/5/1/2991317/april-flowers-showers-and-plug-ugly-numbers
