    Just a note, even the Braves announcers thought the strike out pitch to Biggio was a ball.

    Wright is about to get done, the second time through will pay big dividends.

    Count on it.

    Milo hasn't even got to Kent's AB and the Gamecast shows he struck out already. WTF?

    Jared Wright is getting way ahead of the hitters, not good.

    This umpire's giving them pitches off the plate also, in my opinion.

    I disagree with very few of Garner's moves, but there's no way Ensberg should be starting this game.

    when are the astro bats going to learn to stop relying on the ump to make a call.

    take the ball to the opoosite field! wright is living on the outside corner

    two times already the astros have let 3rd strikes go.

    I'd agree with this, if he hadn't thrown a wild pitch to help move the runner.

    740 online is usually way behind. I'd go with gamecast.

    maybe because that pitch to ensberg was a ****ing ball. i love how the strike zone is tight right until strike 3 needs to be called against us.


    and i love how no pitcher is never not just painting the hell out of the corners against us.


    we've already lost this game (hell we may not even score), may as well get clemens out and rest him for game 4.

    Sorry, duh. You obviously are already looking at gamecast.

    Except it really wasn't that wild. Brad forgot to get down and instead tried to catch it on the hop - a no-no.
