Odd

game started early.. I turned on the TV at 7:04PM and there was already a runner on 1st and 1 out.

Go 'Stros!

Chacon nearly hit Abreu with a pitch

Would have if he hadn’t moved.

What a bad throw by Brad

Abreu steals 2nd and takes 3rd ona bad throw in to CF by Ausmus…

Fans chear the stolen base… pathetic

Go 'Stros!

by Stros Bro on Jun 13, 2008 7:13 PM CDT   0 recs

Ausmus throws the ball into CF

on a steal of second base. We already have an error….

........

Matsui throws out Matsui

to end the inning.

1 runs scored, Astros up to bat.

Go 'Stros!

sigh

one pitch, one out, Astros

it was an ok hit, i suppose…. but still.

by entropic soul on Jun 13, 2008 7:19 PM CDT   0 recs

Wow

quick 1st for the ‘Stros.. 6 whole pitches.. way to work the count

Go 'Stros!

terrible strategy, partticularly with Joba....

Chamberlin’s main problem as a starter has been throwing too many pitches and therefore not staying in games long enough.

by clack on Jun 13, 2008 7:27 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Tejada

1 pitch, 1 out.

Joba is like an sniper or something.

by entropic soul on Jun 13, 2008 7:22 PM CDT   0 recs

Chacon's 1st strike out

was on Chamberlain’s 1st career AB

Go 'Stros!

Chacon has been pretty good lately

except for 1 big inning per game… hopefully the 1st was his big inning :)

My wife hates Derek Jeter

She thinks he is worse than Barry Bonds… I disagree

Go 'Stros!

by Stros Bro on Jun 13, 2008 7:40 PM CDT   0 recs

She thinks he is a cocky bastard

And for some reason doesn’t think Bonds is that cocky…

Go 'Stros!

by Stros Bro on Jun 13, 2008 7:40 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

But take that with a grain of salt

If she watched the game tonight, she’d be wondering why Ensberg isn’t playing 3rd base..

Go 'Stros!

by Stros Bro on Jun 13, 2008 7:41 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Speaking of Ensberg

He’s without a team.. released by the Yankees..

Go 'Stros!

by Stros Bro on Jun 13, 2008 7:48 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

I agree with her

about Jeter being a cocky bastard, although I agree with you that Bonds is worse. Mostly I think Jeter is overrated (despite his later HR in this game), especially defensively. And I despise Ryan Braun for the same reasons—he reminds me a lot of Jeter, the way he comports himself.

nice play by Cano....I tthought Pence had a hit....

Pence has been robbed twice by Yankees defenders.

by clack on Jun 13, 2008 7:46 PM CDT   0 recs

I wouldn't call the 1st one robbed

but he did hit the 1st one well.

Go 'Stros!

Ok?

WTF strike on Matsui?

by entropic soul on Jun 13, 2008 7:47 PM CDT   0 recs

LMAO

They asked Miguel Tejada who had the single season record for RBI’s… Miguel Tejada said A-Rod, when in actuality.. it was him :)

Nice out by Berkman

At least wait until he looks away from you.. jeeez.

by entropic soul on Jun 13, 2008 8:10 PM CDT   0 recs

Posada is

now 2 for 22 in throwing out runners..

we should steal EVERY time against him :)

Go 'Stros!

IBB to Ausmus

after some wildness by Joba…

Chacon to bat..

Go 'Stros!

What's Jeter doing?

Trying to knock Matsui’s hand off the base?
lol

4 SBs already?

Making Posada look like a fool.

by jonthefon on Jun 13, 2008 8:54 PM CDT   0 recs

Bourn didn't take a big enough lead

I could have thrown him out that time

Go 'Stros!

Am I the only one that thinks

Matsui’s face looks fake… it looks like he’s had some plastic surgery… That’s H. Matsui, not K. Matsui

Go 'Stros!

Pretty good outing for Chacon

glad to see it.

6 1/3 inning with 1 run earned against… unfortunately he is leaving 2 runners on. Hopefully (Wright, I think) can keep them from scoring.

Go 'Stros!

Betemit hitting for Joba

Wonder what we can get outta the Yanks bullpen…

by jonthefon on Jun 13, 2008 9:10 PM CDT   0 recs

Pretty good night for me in fantasy baseball

I have both Chacon and Chamberlain in the lineup.

Hmm

Is trading Abreu for Hamels in our league a smart move?

by jonthefon on Jun 13, 2008 9:12 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Dunno

depends on what you need… Hamels has more points so far…

Go 'Stros!

by Stros Bro on Jun 13, 2008 9:13 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Well

I have OFs galore: Crawford, Dye, Hawpe, Pierre and Swisher. A couple haven’t been great, but they should get the job done. I’d say I need SP more.

What did I miss?

Been out on the flightline and came back to the office only to find the WNBA on 760am ><. Looks like a classic pitchers duel…

We've

had our chances. Put quite a few men on, stolen bases, etc.

Dang and double dang

Thanks… the Silver Stars game just ended… I’m praying they switch over

Jeter HR to right off Brocail :(

Freakin' Jeter

Let’s go after Farnsworth.

We've been known to tee off on that guy a time or two

Sonofabitch

I’ll take the blame for that one… I had a coworker over my shoulder and I was pointing out Jeter’s subpar season on his Gameday stat line. My bad.

When the offense scores 6, the pitchers suck...

and when we get a good start from Chacon, the offense sucks.

Shades of 06 all over again...

Great

it isn’t Farnsworth.

Guess we’ll have to somehow get it off Mo…

Biatch!

Ugh, damn it, we’re facing Mo with the bottom of the order coming up.

Argh

Wiggy, Bourn, Ausmus and whatever bench guy we have (Loretta?) against the most dominating closer in the league.

by jonthefon on Jun 13, 2008 9:39 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

What a suck ass team.

1 run? Seriously? From the team that has Tejada, Berkman and Lee on it’s roster?

by entropic soul on Jun 13, 2008 9:38 PM CDT   0 recs

500 to 1

we get Rivera.
