WLL Hey, 1 out of 3 aint bad.....for the Astros. Good thing we have Roger pitching, otherwise it would be LLL. Pugs
Roger Clemens gave up a 2 run homer to the pitcher and the Astros can't buy a f-ing hit if their careers depended on it. Their wanting to be on the victimized end of this no-hit bs. I can't stand our team and what they call baseball. This is suckball.
To quote the cool James that all the ladies love, "Don't call it a comeback" 4-4, bottom of ninth. Kent and Beltran bombs in the top of the 9th tie it up. Weathers in...just kidding.
Unbelievable that they came back. I can't believe it. I turned it off long ago. Maybe we can win another game in extra innings by scoring our 2nd run this season in extra innings. Is that to much to ask? Maybe so.
Beltran's at bat was fantastic- he homered on the 12th pitch. Should've walked on a couple of those pitches, but he knew what he was doing. He's closing in on 30-30. Bagwell is sad...Beltran, Berkman, and Kent rip the cover off this same pitcher, Bagwell K'd for the 4th time today. Painful. Good news is the Expos already have had to cycle through a lot of their pen since Rauch left early. Beltran's swing is so nice...that was nearly a gapper. Now we see when we go with the Lidge bullet...
well at least Bagwell didn't K for the 5th...weak grounder instead. Just when I thought Berkman and Kent weren't going to let this team down...Kent decides to take a full count strike 3 looking with Berkman running...and Berkman decides to go into no man's land instead of giving himself a chance. Inning #2 for Lidge...
Ensberg!! 5-4 Astros, and Viz just doubled! The more runs the better...Lidge has gone his two innings, so he's done for the night. Harville likely for the bottom of the 12th.
Typical. And now we're going through our whole pen, which is not a good thing since we've got an unknown in Carlos tomorrow, and Munro the next day.
