    lineup was different in game 2 as well because of lefty on lefty.

    it was Sosa and Veirling in game 2. As opposed to Stott and Marsh.

    No. That is why they had to add Corey Lee to be able to use Vasquez as DH.

    If a DH changes to a fielding position later in the game, you lose the DH option and the pitcher has to bat. Theoretically you could try to manage that late in game with PH's and replacing relievers, but the Astros don't have that many PH options to pull that off.

    Maldy just playing mind games so that they think they can steal a base.

    I'm physically exhausted but so ready for this! I'm going to set the tone and play "Master of Puppets" on guitar now. Then, some Rush. Got to get into the happy mindset!

    My nerves won't suffer until we're trailing 5th inning or later and/or Phillies w/RISP

    I prefer a big Astros lead from start to finish

    Down to 475 now and dropping fast. I'm waiting for them to go under 400 to pick up a pair. Always happens

    What site are you looking at, and don't sales stop once the game starts since the tickets are mobile?
