    Good lord Milo's call of the slam is embarrassing.

    If you can't enjoy a walkoff GS for the home team without thinking about roster deficiencies, you probably shouldn't be watching baseball.

    I said I didn't get excited over the roster, not over the actual games.

    Just watched it this morning. What an incredible shot and a very very improbable way for this team to win , but we did :)

    I also equivocate the probability of Bogusevic hitting a game winning grand slam to Adam Everett hitting one, lol.

    No doubt that Bogey deserves a start. He's been on fire the last 2 weeks.

    Maybe because the Cubs and Stros haven't been in a pennant race together in a long time but I feel like I should dislike Aramis Ramirez more then I do?!?

    40....40 career bombs against us.

    I've never liked him. He killed us with the Pirates and he's killed us with the cubs.

    Not a large sample size, but Shuck reminds me of a faster Greg Gross.

    I hated him the day he put that Cubs jersey on. It has only grown over time.

    I just watched the double by Bogey, and am surprised Paredes didn't score. With 2 outs, you have to think someone with the speed he has would have made it. Certainly a better chance than Carlos Lee last night.

    Edit: Not saying Dave Clark made the wrong move, but rather if Paredes slowed down for some reason or got a bad jump.

    terrible baserunning by barney. you gotta make paredes throw the ball home there. basically screwed yourself into what you then have to turn into a free shot at paredes and corporan botching the connection.

    nice win.
