According to the recent Yahoo! article, anyone who reads this thread between now about 6:30 knows the Brewers starters before Berkman. :D

Second!!! Oh...Let's see...

WWW...c'mon, we have to break out of the slump right?

[Surfguy]

At this point, I don't rightly care how the series turns out. I'm thoroughly uninspired with this team as of late. There is a side of me that kind of hopes they continue their flush down the toilet. They teased us with some brilliant play a few weeks back...which they could not sustain. Now, we are back to ho hum. When Berkman calls the team mediocre, I then take my cue to start watching the scoreboards only and not give in to watching mediocre baseball. All that confidence they had a few weeks back seems shot now. I have to say it's disappointing to be back to where we are now after some excellent baseball for a spurt there.

Like a fat girl when you are in a rut and out drunk, the Brewers are gonna be the slumpbuster the Stros need

[stobbartjohn]

LAAAAAAANCE!

[stobbartjohn]

Gah, Ryan freaking Braun AGAIN

[Surfguy]

From looking at the scoreboard on Yahoo!, it looks like Roy brought some stuff tonite with 5 Ks in 3 innings. Hopefully, he won't give up any more homeruns, or runs for that matter (lol), this game.

[GlassHalfFull]

Lee 4 for 4 on stolen bases for the year. LOL

[stobbartjohn]

Carlos Lee is a SPEEDSTER

[stobbartjohn]

Wow, it's actually fun to watch Roy pitch tonight instead of being excruciatingly painful

[stobbartjohn]

BIG PUMA AGAIN!

That should be that really, now I wonder how we can throw this series away lol

[BMoney]

Lance hit the crap out of that pitch on a 1-2 count. He could overtake Bagwell's 1994 performance.

[BrooksBall]

Just got in... looks like Berkman and Oswalt owned the game tonight.

Great to see Oswalt pitch like Oswalt.

Hunter going 0-5 doesn't look good but he only had 1 SO. I assume he had some bad luck.

Waiting for Tejada to get out of this mini-slump. I saw him take some truly horrendous hacks en route to a strikeout during the last game I was able to watch.

It was great to see Oswalt pitch well. He really had his stuff tonight. 10 Ks.

Hunter just had a bad night. It happens.

I am getting concerned about Miggy. Hopefully he will break out of this slump. It is hard to believe that his average has dropped 45 points in the last 3 weeks or so.

[rikesh316]

I don't understand why Wiggy got benched. He is the hottest Astros hitter other than Berkman. He made an error last game so I guess that's the reason. Bourn made an error and still played last night while Darin Erstad is red hot. Doesn't make a lot of sense.

[stobbartjohn]

Ok, let's get this series tied up. Can't believe how badly Parra owned us a few weeks back. It's payback time!

[stobbartjohn]

Miggy and El Caballo go LONG

[Surfguy]

It seems like every Astro pitcher has either broken, or is on pace to break, their own personal record as far as HRs allowed.
