Got to get some runs...this team is ready to QUIT...but we keep letting them hang around. Suppan is throwing VERY hittable pitches especially early in the count, a bit more aggression could help our offense against him. BIG BIG BIG inning coming up. Got to get out Eck, Edmonds and Pujols and then score some runs. Come on Backe...CONCENTRATE !!! DD
What is up with Jeff Suppan shutting us down? Does this guy to this to everyone? I mean, c'mon! I guess that's the Astros for ya!
TLR would have to be crazy to take out Suppan... it would only be a confidence builder to our lineup if we got to face somebody else at this point. Dammit Brandon... throw Eck a strike!
This inning is massive ... we get through their top 3 hitters, and I LOVE our chances to win this one...
Damnit... what was Ensberg doing over there??? If he's not in position to make the catch, get out of the freaking way. That totally screwed up Lance.
WHY did Poohead get the ball right down the middle?!!!!! Poo is the only guy that's hitting against us...pitch around him. Backe done for the day. Gallo in the game now.
Pitching to Pujols = flirting with disaster. I guess they were hoping to sneak one by him (maybe him thinking we were pitching around him). Uh-oh... I don't know about taking him out now! Gallo?!?!?!?
what? why is backe coming out? has he thrown that many pitches? he can't be much over 90, if even there.
NOOOOOOO !! Please Phil, now is NOT the time to start over managing. Backe is on fire.....why take him out for a guy who is SOOOOO unsteady....? DD
