    Munro and Pettitte will pitch 6 innings of shutout ball only to have the pen give up 6 runs in 1/3 of an inning for the loss.

    Oswalt will continue his dominating ways and will have to pitch another shutout.

    The first and last games are obvious. The second game however....Roy will do his usual to keep us in the game, but after he gets injured and is out for the remainder of the season the bullpen will blow the 1-0 lead we got from a Beltran solo home run.

    Wow, look at Glavine's ERA, how can he be 8-10 with that? He doesn't play for the Astros does he?

    Hidalgo is going to go 2-14, but hit a homerun and lead to the start of at least three threads after that game on how much we screwed up.

    Don't know if they showed the Bob Murphy (Mets original announcer) Tribute on Houston TV before tonights game. It was well done and very classy.

    As I watched it I couldn't help but wonder if Houston will do the same for Gene Elston. Elston is by far the best announcer the Astros have ever had, but was fired for being "to boring" according to John McMullen:rolleyes: So they brought in Milo and Bill Brown:eek:

    Milo's not boring though, it's an adventure just to figure out what the score and inning is. . .

    Also, tonight the Astros embark on a record 32 game win streak.

    Bill Brown is indeed boring .........but you cant help but get psyched up when the Astros come up with a big run and Bill really gets into the call.

    LOL

    I never thought I would say this, but I am actually happy at not being able to get the audio feeds on the internet of Astros games.
    Milo is just awful.
