    NLCS starts Wednesday with Pettitte vs. Carpenter. I like that match-up. Oswalt will pitch Game 2 before coming back to Houston.

    Wed night start against the CARDS?

    Did I hear that right....FANTASTIC !!!

    Just flip Roy and Roger in the rotation...and they are both working on full or better rest.

    Andy on Wed, Roy on Thursday, Roger on Friday, Backe on Satruday,

    Wash rinse repeat.

    YES !!

    Anyone have the radio call of the Burke homer? Would love to hear that since I live out of town and couldn't get the postgame.

    More than likely it will be:

    Pettitte - Wednesday
    Oswalt - Thursday
    Friday - Off Day
    Clemens - Saturday
    Backe (Pettitte if down 3-0) - Sunday
    Pettitte - Monday
    Tuesday - Off Day
    Oswalt - Wednesday
    Clemens - Thursday

    Probably the greatest game I have ever seen.

    This game was something special and it was great to see H-town win this series in this fashion. This team has great character.

    Just got back from MMP, and without a doubt that is the greatest game, in any sport, that I have been to.

    Im speachless - literally..

    I got to church right about the time Ausmus hit the tying home run. Went nuts in the parking lot. Then had my brother send me text updates. Finally after what 2 1/2 hrs (playing music for our fall festival and then during mass) of receiving updates on my damn phone, they finally win. And I tell ya, I could NOT stop smiling. We the band decided to play "take me out to the ballgame" toward the end of mass (when the children came up to get their weekly bulletins) and got a rousing ovation from everybody, then announced to the congretation that the Astros won and everybody cheered. That was awesome.

    Nah, the Astros vs. Braves will definately lead off on Sportscenter... this game had EVERYTHING from power to pitching to great defense to clutch hitting to the Rocket being a relief pitcher for the first time in 20 years...
