    Rick, you need to worry about managing the salary cap, not the Astros

    Will this be blacked out on ESPN? I live in Lubbock so I'm a little worried about it

    Astros are an NL team.

    The stadium looks full, the Astros look great in their new uniforms, but there's that sad realization that we're now an American League team.

    It felt wrong to type that.

    Can someone explain why they sing God bless America in the 7th? Not the song but why the 7th?

    It's the 7th inning stretch. The point in the game when fans traditionally get up to stretch their legs, grab a snack/drink, go to the restroom, etc. An extended time out.
