yes. but so high and inside, it didn't seem scary.
Chris, if you want a purpose pitch, it needs to be close to his body. That was above his head.
Sampson's ERA at MMP this year: 15.75. 21 hits in 8 innings.
A no hitter wasn’t what I was worried about. LOL.
Immature comment incoming
I wonder if Kosuko Fukudome has ever gotten beat up for just saying his last name…
Go 'Stros!
my advice: be selective on swinging at Dempster pitches.
he doesn’t get a lot pitches in the strike zone. Well, Bourn didn’t get the memo.
Bourn sucks out.
Dempster has very strange movement with his hand before a pitch. Or what Stros Bro said. :p
Maybe Towles needs batting gloves
to break him out of this .149 slump he’s in… and when I say slump, I mean season.
Go 'Stros!
disappointing to see Towles struggling while Soto is a star.
Towles and Soto looked like similar offensive players in the minors and in limited big league time last year. So I expected Towles and Soto to be competing for rookie of the year, or at least best rookie catcher. But so far, no contest.
WGN is carrying the game
for those of us outside Houston market

Tejada shows some life...a double.
Ball was kept, because it was Tejada’s 1800th hit, if I heard correctly.
Almost jumped out of my chair...
here in my little cubicle at the office just when I saw Pence with the Grand Slam…Man we needed that!
Go Stros! Keep piling on.

Biggio and Bagwell for the HOF!
a cousin of mine...
is a soccer coach at St. Thomas. I’m a little envious that he’ll have a bunch of opportunities to see Biggio.
The same cousin was also at the game where Bidge got 3000—it was the only game he went to that month. He’d bought the ticket like a month before just in case Biggio was close.
4 pitch walk by Sampson to a rrookie in his first ML at bat....
what more sign do you need that he lost it.
OMG, Brocail is in...
please get out of this…with our lead intact…PLEASE
Go Stros
Biggio and Bagwell for the HOF!
Brocail and Valverde...
are the only relievers I feel good about these days.
And I don’t cringe when Wright comes in. Can’t say the same for anyone else, I don’t think.
Oh, I don't cringe..
when Nieve comes in. Not because I expect he’ll get it done (it’s too early to know what to expect) but just because I like him and want him to do well for his sake.
Doesn't Ramirez
look like he has a smaller body than he had two years ago?

Easy Win
Two homeruns account for all the scoring.
Cubs get a two-run homer.
Astros counter with a grand slam.
Grand slam wins.

Good win
Let’s see if we can take the final game tomorrow…that would be nice. Good to get this win.
Go Stros!
Biggio and Bagwell for the HOF!
