    Even Ausmus is getting into the act with a run scoring single!!

    5-0 Stros. Willis has already thrown more pitches in 4 innings than he did against us in 9 innings last week.

    What a difference a change of venue makes!

    Maybe we need to move back to the Dome. ;)

    Randy Johnson just got a perfect game..I have no idea what that means..

    could someone define a "perfect game" in baseball?

    27 up and 27 down (facing the minimum).

    No walks allowed, no hits allowed and no errors made by the pitcher' team.

    EDIT: Maybe a better summary would be, not one runner reaches base by any means.

    You serious Kaiser???

    Anyways, a perfect game is one in which the opposing team DOES NOT HAVE A BASERUNNER... period.

    NO hits, walks, errors, HBP, balks, catcher interference, acts of god... NOTHING.

    27 men up... 27 men down... in order.

    Here's another way of putting it in perspective... every year, there is at least 1-2 no hitters. Before tonight, there had only been SIXTEEN (16) perfect games in baseball HISTORY.

    This was indeed history... and to think I was ONE STRIKE away from seeing Mussina throw one two years ago in Boston... ARRGH!

    Astros.com needs to fix their TV schedule. I checked yesterday to see if the game was on ch. 51 and it didn't have it listed, it just said Fox Sports. So I had to listen to it on the radio. During the 7th inning I turned on my TV and it just happened to be on ch. 51 and yes, the game was on too. I missed 6 2/3 innings.

    Berkman is on fire. HR. 1-0 Stros.

    Doggy has been demoted in the lineup to 7th. Ensberg is now 6th.

    So from now on, he will be known as Dalgy. A return to the 6th spot ...............Doggy!

    We are teeing off on Pavano. 4-0 Stros in the 2nd and we are still batting.

    Where was this hitting on the homestand? *frustrated*

    and the bats are alive

    Why is it that the Astros only come alive on the road?

    Right now they seem to be baseball's ultimate "Roadwarriors" for some hard to explain reason...

    Is there anyplace else to see the gamecast besides ESPN? My work computer hates their website for some reason.
