    The official scorer must be assuming the runner at 3rd as safe. The runner almost realized too late how far the ball got away. If he had just stayed at 3rd Lyles wouldn't have been charged an error.

    Lady luck hasn't left our side just yet. How does that ball stay fair?

    Wallace does kind of look like a huge rubber ball when he runs. He almost bounces around the bases.

    Folks, this needs to be recorded but it won't happen very often...if EVER.

    Pence is a machine, probably our only all-star.

    I don't play fantasy but I found this little tidbit when checking Marmol's numbers: http://www.cbssports.com/mlb/players/playerpage/580591/carlos-marmol

    Pence now has an OBP of .365 and slugging over .500...I'd say our boy is becoming a man.

    Pence may get there in a legit fashion, even if he ends up the only Astro. Forget the "everyone's an All-Star" mumbo-jumbo...
