    A battle of the bullpens and we already used Lidge. I do not like our chances.

    You know, the Stros are so overdue for some fluke botched grounder to go our way in the playoffs. I thought that just might be the one ....

    Get ready for the most tense 9th inning in years.

    I know...but sometime it will matter, and a feet first slide instead of running it through will cost a run.

    While the game was lost in the 12th inning, the Astros should have ended it in the 10th when former Houston reliever Russ Springer loaded the bases on a walk to Jeff Bagwell, a single by Ken Caminiti and a bunt hit by Stan Javier.

    With Game 2 starter Jose Lima pounding a bat in the dugout, Braves closer John Rocker came on and got out of the jam.

    With the infield in, Carl Everett hit a dribbler to first base and Ryan Klesko forced Bagwell at the plate for the first out.

    Then came the play of the game. Eusebio hit a screamer up the middle, but shortstop Walt Weiss dived to his left, made an incredible stop and threw out Caminiti at home.

    "There's no way he should have made that play," Eusebio said. "He made a heck of a play. When I saw the ball go past the pitcher, I thought it was a hit for sure."
