The Astros non-streak record (ie removing the 10-gamewin streak, as well as the current 7-game losing streak) is 24-20, an 88-win pace, which is just a tick off what their overall pace is (which is 90). If you push 90 wins, you're going to be in contention late into the season. They've had a streak of tough luck: they blew the game Sunday in Toronto and they've wasted three consecutive terrific pitching outings in Chicago. It happens to even the best teams. They'll be fine.
Obviously the key would be scoring 8 runs in the 1st inning while only making 1 out against Feliz Who saw that coming?!!? Glad that crap is over. Now we need to keep winning series' starting with the rubber match against SEA today.
