    No kidding. I thought we were screwed the minute I heard Hernandez was pitching. And he didn't fail our expectations of him, he flat out sucked.

    BUT, all of a sudden all our bats are alive! We have great pitching, and great hitters! Gotta love it!

    3 doubles for Biggio last night, and didn't he have 2 the night before?! DAMN! :eek:

    Hidalgo was the NL player of the week BEFORE he hit his 3 run shot last night, and also got another RBI off of a sac fly.

    It just makes it that much sweeter. I love the Astros, I love how they have so many games. They are always there when you need some good entertainment.

    The Rocket had a hell of a debute, looking for him to continue that tonight.

    GO 'STROS!

    we dodged a real bullet with fernandez last night


    great work by the pen though and a smart decision to yank fernandez without going an inning, who knows what the score would have been lol.

    rocket pitched brilliantly in his first game, I don't look for him to continue along that stat like of 7 ip, 1 h, 9 SO.

    but.... a win none the less for the good guys tonight :)

    T-Spoon's a great coach. I'm already breaking 100. Well, close to it.

    We're hitting the links this weekend. We got some good coupons in you're interested.

    30 cent wings+Rocket beating the Redbirds=RM95 at BW3, quite possibly, btw.

    You're a funny man, Buck. If you take out all my mulligans, um, front nine.

    Any interest in catching the game tonight?

    The only reason I can kid is because you've never seen my prodigious set of skills. We should definitely hit the course this weekend.

    Can't catch the game tonight, soccer practice.

    Cool. Give me a shout. We've got a couple of places in mind, we'll take your input lightly.

    Alright, Lance is back! I was hoping that grand slam wasn't just luck.

    Miceli bails us out of trouble.

    Clemens line this year, 13.2 innings, 2 hits allowed, 12 Ks. Hopefully 2-0.

    Wow.
