    No kidding! The turnaround has begun!

    I think I need to lock myself out of my house everyday and come next door to the apartment complex to follow the game on gameday. :D

    I never said the whiners didn't care... I'm just sick of the whining that fans of ALL Houston sports do.

    You may not realize it, but there are fans out there who can support the team, admit their mistakes, and even flat out say, "they're bad" without the constant INCESSANT whining.

    Uh-oh... Everett just went deep... and he suddenly is the most power-proficient SS in the NL.

    Make it 10 HR in 19.1 innings. Very ugly ratio. Put it this way- if the Astros hit 5 HR every game, how happy would you be?

    I'm liking Wandy, though. Rough outing, but avoided the big inning. Oswalt-ish in that regard.

    Good game, nice to see our offense have a break out game. Especially on the road!

    Is that our 3rd road win?!

    Wow ... just when it looks like they might get 2 in a row ... It's a 1 run game again ... How many times do we have to see this happen? Lets close this out.

    Pitch 1 - Ball
    Pitch 2 - Called Strike
    Pitch 3 - Swinging Strike
    Pitch 4 - In play, out(s) recorded

    Damian Miller grounds into double play, catcher Brad Ausmus to third baseman Morgan Ensberg to first baseman Mike Lamb. Junior Spivey out at 3rd.

    Nice save! ;)

    Astros should pick up Eric Valent, who was cut by the Mets. He had a solid season last year but struggled under Willie Randolph this year. He has some pop and he is a solid defender. He is still fairly young at 28 and he would be a upgrade over Todd Self.

    I like Self but I don't know anything about Valent.

    That is Randa's 2nd Homer off Clemens this season.....and Clemens has given up...what 4 homers now?
