    They're always "WWW" for me.

    Vasquez is looking bad out there. Robertson isn't looking too good either, but the Astros are playing good defense. 2 - 0 good guys.

    Go Stros!

    Woohoo... good win for us, especially against a decent pitcher like Vasquez. Although I've never seen a game end like that.

    Good game. When the umps are giving that outside strike call, Robertson can be very, very effective. He drops that little curve in their with extreme accuracy.

    Yeah thats awful, I was looking forward to watching this game but I guess I'll just have to watch Baseball Tonight. Hopefully the Astros can take care of business and the Cubs and Cards can continue to lose.

    11 consecutive games trading wins and losses.

    After Sunday, 7 of the next 10 games will be against the Cubs.

    When Lidge has that slider really working, it can be SO damn nasty. I love it.
