    Please keep this to talk about the series. As usual no Play-by-Play, or general Astros talk. If you need play by play see one of the many other sites that have game casts.

    8-6 Wandy Rodriguez, LHP vs. Dave Bush, RHP 7:10 on FSH

    8-7 Brett Myers, RHP vs. Randy Wolf, LHP 6:10 on FSH

    8-8 Wesley Wright, LHP vs. Yovani Gallardo, RHP 1:10 on FSH

    Gallardo is a beast but we can take the 1st two and call it a nice trip.

    Curious to know if anyone knows if MLB announces the umpire crew prior to immediately before the game...

    This serious should be a sweep though, given how the Stros have played the BrewCrew

    Nice job by Wandy getting out of that leadoff hustle double by Weeks. Brewers have a nice lineup but I would really like Hart to hit third to take advantage of his run production.

    Dam CJ DRILLED that pitch! Pretty impressive to see his OPS up there with the big boys.

    If Micheal was healthy he would have 3 bases on that, still a nice start to the inning.

    Great job by Pence on an 0-2 count, stayed back and good things happened. Also loved the double steal, I want the Stros to be more aggressive on the basepaths.

    That was the first time Bush ever got CJ out. CJ was 7-for-7 against him coming into that AB and it was a well hit ball to the opposite field that just as easily could've found a gap.

    CJ is just seeing everything so clearly right now, sometimes I get tempted to believe he could be a cleanup hitter long term.

    The sample size is become more and more significant by the day. I'm in cautiously optimistic mode now. Still want to see where he's at after 5 or 600 plate appearances.

    That was a nice AB by Castro, he went down and got that pitch. By years end, I can see him getting up to a .250 avg.

    Bush has been a tough nut to crack, to many men left on base tonight.
