    Please keep this to talk about the series. As usual no Play-by-Play, or general Astros talk. If you need play by play see one of the many other sites that have game casts.

    5-17 Wandy Rodriguez, LHP (2-4, 4.81) vs. John Ely, RHP (1-1, 3.86) 9:10 on FSH

    5-18 Bud Norris, RHP (2-4, 6.03) vs. Hiroki Kuroda, RHP (4-1, 2.66) 9:10

    WW. The Astros keep us guessing to just how much they suck.

    I wish I could go to the game tonight. Though judging by the weather it is in danger of getting rained out.

    I hope the Astros win. They got swept last series, so maybe it's their turn to be the sweeper.

    It just so happens I have spoken to Nostradamus about this matter and he had the following to say (he also requested I post his picture and photoshop his direct quote)

    FSHouston Astros lineup: Bourn cf, Keppinger 2b, Berkman 1b, Lee lf, Pence rf, Blum ss, Feliz 3b, Quintero c, Rodriguez p

    Many get their wish! Unfortunately, only for one game.

    No Matsui, no Manzella, no Cash

    Such Bull****, if the second base ump could get the right call we'd be going to the top of the 2nd with a 1-0 lead.

    I missed the beginning of the game. What happened on the play?

    Well, looks like L4 as we head to the bottom of the 8th.

    When this team loses, it loses in bunches.

    Again, I missed the beginning of the game but it looks like they changed whatever happened in the bottom of the 1st to an error on Keppinger.

    Pence has to make that play. It's unlikely that we would score 2 runs anyway but Pence has to make that play.

    Edit: So that was the second time that Pence couldn't make a play on a similar ball. Deshaies is just spinning it in my opinion. Pence should've made both of those plays.

    Someone put me on suicide alert.
    I don't know if I can handle an entire summer of this. A large portion of my summer is going to Minute Maid Park. What the Fack do I do now.


    If only I could flash forward 5 years.
