    At this rate, they will have another 16 runs in this game.

    [insert more b****ing, moaning, and pissing here]

    Well, I'll keep watching. Yesterday became a fun game all of a sudden....then just as quickly as it got fun...it sucked ass.

    Oswalt has already matched his total homeruns allowed for last season.

    That's incredible.

    Did we just get Hamilton out? Or, am I hallucinating?

    Lance Berkman goes yard on a fastball that was low and on the outside part of the plate. He's awesome.

    For some reason, Puma only homers whenever I think right before "Berkman needs to homer here". And, I'm more right than I am wrong on Berkman. lol

    Rangers are not a bad team so you guys shouldn't feel so bad. Hamilton is a triple crown threat. Honestly I've never seen anyone as powerful, fast, big, strong armed, and smart since Ken Griffey Jr. in his early days. What a player. Lance is a really good player too.. Seems like anything he slaps off his bat just carries forever.

    Surfguy, you need to start thinking "Berkman needs to homer here" at every at-bat! We would all benefit!

    It doesn't work that way. It has to come to me from out of the blue.

    Unbelievable.......it's Teddy Berkman.

    What's up with Carlos tonight. The past few games he's looks likes he's really finding his stroke, but tonight he's just flailing away. Gotta get El Caballo going.

    Also, I undertand why Coop made the switch, but I don't like Hunter leading off. I think he's perfect in the 6 hole.......he's a RBI guy, not a OBP hitter.

    Berkman can do no wrong these days.

    His baseball smarts are almost as special as his hitting.

    I'm pretty sure Berkman is also leading all 1st basemen in fielding percentage or some similar defensive stat.

    He's one of 3 1st Basemen who have a 1.000 fielding %. Adrian Gonzalez and Nick Johnson are the others.

    We are going to need great pitching to get us out of this inning and some clutch hitting to pull this game out.

    Oswalt is not the same, he is just giving up so many gopher balls....something is wrong, he is not getting the movement on his fastballs and they seem slower to me.

    I was talking about a different stat but that is pretty sweet, too.

    I believe fielding % was part of the stat.
