    The Marlins were just reeling off hits there. Bud was able to limit the damage. I think he's going to need to mix up his pitches more to be successful as a starter in the long run. It doesn't look like he has the type of command to rely so heavily on just 2 pitches.

    Blum's gotta make that play.

    No lead is safe against this team.

    This has all the makings of last nights game. I ain't wasting my night again. Nope. I'll flip over every 1/2 hour or so. The 'Stros were up 5-0 ... I walked my dog, came back in & 6-2.

    Now bases loaded. Ugg(la) :rolleyes:

    I would label this a contact hitting lineup.

    Yup, about the same distance to home as 2nd and you can save a run. If anything, try to turn the double from home.

    It was a great effort to field the ball but a bad decision to follow it up.

    Good job there by Bud.

    MUST CHANGE CHANNEL NOW. :D

    OK, I'll watch the Astros bat this half-inning ... then I MUST change the channel. My brain rotted away just a teensy bit last night watching that game.

    Who thinks we'll need to score more than 6 runs to win this game?

    Damn, adding just the one bat back to the lineup makes a world of difference

    This Marlins lineup is just relentless.

    Got the 6-run lead back but I still don't feel as comfortable as I would typically.
