    Berkman got almost all of that. Too bad.

    A table flat fastball poorly located.

    If you took the over on HRs, you win and it's only the 3rd inning.

    The 7 Ks are impressive but it looks like Padre hitters are just teeing up and waiting for a flat fastball down the middle.

    That ball was crushed on a line right to Lee. Pretty lucky.

    The Pads payroll is roughly 38 and change while the Stros is 92 and change, this makes me sad. :confused:

    Maybe Norris can hit a HR here. He swings hard.

    If they rule that a passed ball, I'd still put it mostly on Norris. It looked like he badly missed the target.

    Pretty close to another HR. That one was nearly lined over the RF wall like Hairston's to LF.

    Hitters are making a lot of clean contact when they do hit the ball off Norris.

    This team is a god damn travesty to watch. I haven't been following the Astros for decades like some, but in my 8-9 years watching this is just pitiful.

    I am just about to start hearing voices in my head at this point, Baggy and Biggo telling me how everything will be ok, you have to take it one game at a time and we are a second half team... :eek: :eek: :eek:

    Hey, it ain't over yet. He's already given up an entire hit through 4.

    We'll get him here. Never surrender.

    Cy Latos with another picture perfect inning.

    1-hitter with no walks. MLB Network should start picking up on it soon.

    FML

    Hairston nearly made a miraculous leaping grab on our 1 hit to boot.

    If he was in inch taller, he probably makes the catch.

    Of course you can't change just one element of the past and expect everything else to remain the same as bobrek accurately points out from time to time.

    Still, FML.

    You are doing quite a bit of life ****ing. I would think it would be FML for the Astros instead, :cool:

    Another quick, spotless frame for Cy Latos.

    6 IP, 1 H, 0 BB, 69 pitches

    Lee with an infield single. That was nearly an amazing play by Latos.

    Latos with a 2B and R to go with his 2-hitter.

    He has many total bases as the Astros after 7.
