    True... but no Astro has ever hit more HR's in the month of May... in team history.

    Its been a good month... coming off the 3 week adjustment period that was an awful April.

    Only mildly true. He's pretty much top 25 in the AL in both HR and RBI after today

    "Power sleeves"... Blummer cracking me up.

    Springer's hot streak even has the announcers sounding better.
