    As always, no PBP in the thread. If you need that try one of the game cast sites. Keep discussion to this series. If it is not about this series it goes somewhere else.


    8-31 Mike Leake, RHP vs. Fernando Abad, LHP 7:05 on FSH

    9-1 Homer Bailey, RHP vs. Lucas Harrell, RHP 6:05 on FSH

    9-2 Bronson Arroyo, RHP vs. Bud Norris, RHP 1:05 on FSH

    So bad we don't even get our names mentioned anymore.

    LLL

    Remember when we used to own the Reds, and RoyO was like 18-1 against them?

    I miss those days.

    I might be going to one of these games. I'll remember to take some pictures of the sparse crowds I'm expecting...

    .250?! Heck, only two guys hitting over .230. You're asking too much of them. :p

    You know what's awesome about being both an Indians and Astros fan?

    Nothing. Absolutely nothing.

    And, after today, Norris is back leading the league. 1.90 home ERA.

    Brilliant decision for me to leave Bud Norris on the bench in my fantasy league playoffs

    Norris out after 6 scoreless innings and a 79 PC. Did he get hurt?

    That was no bueno - no doubt about it..

    Makes Martinez getting picked off right before the Greene HR that much harder to stomach. :(
