    Used to stand for Weck. They got rid of that awhile back.

    Having no offense is one thing, but when your pitching has to overcome defensive players who are just either slow, or not that good... it will be tough to win ball games.

    Biggio has been nowhere near 3-4 balls on this homestand, when they've been routine pop-ups with average CF'ers, and its cost the team nearly every time.

    Willy... when you play here for the futures game, could you just stay and not go back to Round Rock?

    yawn... this game would be much worse if it wasn't for all this T-mac news.

    btw... why is our inept hitting coach still coaching this team? To be shut-down by the same pitcher three times this year is inexcuseable, especially since the ASTROS are the ONLY team he's been shutting down ALL YEAR.

    This 4 run lead for the Pirates is like 10 run lead to the astros.

    Nick just woke up the bats.

    3 run double by Berkman ties the game at 4.

    Huge hit. Team needed that.

    Can somebody who is watching the game on TV confirm that the Astros did indeed just put up a 5-spot and are still batting with nobody out?

    I just refuse to believe it without visual confirmation. I'm afraid Game Center may be jerking with me.

    :D

    Leave it to Ausmus to kill the rally - but 5 runs is a nice comeback.

    You think maybe he's pumped about his new team?

    Two straight Ks!

    Yes... I take all the credit. Credit also goes to Uprising for coming back to the country.

    That's now two games in a row. One more... that's a winning streak.

    Can we do it?

    Thanks to Biggio and Viz hitting weak popups, looks like we're about to waste men on 1st and 3rd with no outs. Nice.

    Too bad we couldn't get him home though.

    Runner on 3rd with no one out and we leave him stranded.
