San Francisco Giants at Houston Astros, Aug 14 1:05 PM CDT

So I didn’t vote…

Erstad should be the starting center fielder and Abercrombie shouldn’t be on the team.

Today is Loretta’s birthday!! HE SHOULD BE PLAYING 2ND!!!

Ryan Rohlinger, Pablo Sandoval and Travis Ishikawa were all called up by the Giants on Wednesday…

We need to obliterate this lineup!

:(

With 2 outs in the first.

that Toby Keith is one of Miggy’s favorites? that seems odd.

Tejada GIDP. fucker. >:(

First two Astros reach base and they can’t score.

Interviewed the Little Pumas dressed in a little Puma outfit.

leave one man on

with one out

Took a good play to keep that from being a single

Pence to third

lol, awesome

Q strikes out on a very low strike that goes out of play .
Q goes to first
Pence scored

Giants 3 Astros 1

Astros get the first two men on and no outs.

and both times Tejada is the third batter

In the first inning he hit into a double play

Almost did the same thing this time but he beat the throw to first

Lance Berkman batting
Only two hits in this four game series so far

around the boxes, off the wall. impressive

Tejada stopped at third

Sac fly Geoff Blum

Some keen insight, eh.

Two leaping line drive catches and one grounder

to lead off the fourth

great inning for him

on front end of a double play

He may have been safe but it was close

Diving catch on grounder

He’s lost that great voice but he’s still articulate

4-3

Ishikawa on 2nd with one out.

Rowlinger flies out and now they’re walking Ochoa to get to Correia.

sitting in the low 70s on his pitch count and we record two outs on three pitches. it’d be nice to get into that bullpen that we’ve been tearing from limb to limb.

I’ll miss the rest of the game.

I think the Astros can have another big 7th and win this game.

That’s just great.

Time for a rally!

2 run HR. astros take the lead 6-4

2 run shot!

just barely underneath the yellow line to the left of the conoco pump. some question as to whether it should have been a homer or not.

Yes, I have the mentality of a 13-year-old.

hitting the long ball again..

Astros win again! Astros win to extend their winning streak to 8 games!

Even against losing teams, that’s impressive. One four game series sweep is out of the ordinary. Two in a row….I have to think that it has been a long while since that happened.

I made that up… but it could be true.

- Stros Bro, 7/31 (two weeks ago today). http://www.crawfishboxes.com/2008/7/31/583645/right-now-we-need-to-win

7/1 – 7/3 — sweep the Mets.
7/7 – 7/10 — sweep the Reds.
7/11 – 7/14 — sweep the Giants.

Keep it up, fellas! (And Stros Bro)

missed the last two innings, but what a finish?

we’d be in 1st in the West and 2.5 out in the East. why can’t the friggin Cards and Brewers just lose damnit?! only 3 games behind St. Louis in the loss column. go Fish! and go Pads!

the Astros currently have the 13th best record in baseball, for those paying attention to the 1st round draft pick protection.
