Great game and great win...Now, if we can only keep it going for the rest of the season... Go Stros!!!
The Cubs will go 3-3 from hereon out ... They lose 1 out of the next 3 to the Reds and 2 out of 3 to the Braves. That means we need 4 out of the next 5 games. Clemens will pitch 2 of those and Roy will pitch once more ... That means we have to get a win out of Backe or whoever pitches the first game against Colorado. I think this is very doable ... I hope that extra home game the Cubs got doesnt come back to haunt us if we finish 1 out ...(although I'm sure the Marlins feel like they got the real raw end of the deal ... and rightly so, but I guess thats what they get for playing on a team whose home region sticks out into the ocean right? )
Scott Rolen is expected to start at 3rd tonight. http://us.rd.yahoo.com/mymod/hdln/m...-cottolenxpectedtoetu&prov=rotowire&type=lgns
Went to the game last night and saw Rolen working with some trainers, ran pretty well, but it was the stopping that looked like it was hurting him. Also, anyone have any idea about Sundays give away at MMP? I have 4 kids going and they would think it was cool to get something.
It had nothing to do with the Stros making the playoffs. But if they make the playoffs and beat the Braves then I'll change my sig. Thats the double or nothing part. If they make it and don't play the Braves I still win.
Ugh 1-0 Cards....Walker HR. The Cardinals are 73-15 when they score first.....*sigh*.... Bases loaded for the Reds with one out! LEts go Reds!!! EDIT: WOW! Kent is really hot! Double for kent to lead off the bottom of the2nd.
Viz has GOT to capitalize in that situation ... We can't leave runners on third with one out and expect to sweep the remaining games. Backe's looked decent so far minus one bad pitch that was crushed ... lets hope he can keep that going
Backe with the lead off single! Now he is in scoring position! Bring him home! EDIT: Terrible....popup by Beltran...come on. Where are the timely hits?! Come on Bags!
Tough call there on that strikeout of Berkman... i'm pretty sure I heard the bat clip the ball before it hit the ground. EDIT: WOW! What a catch by Lance!
