Cincinnati Reds at Houston Astros, Sep 25, 2008 7:05 PM CDT
Here's my thought: if Roy wins tonight, then it's game on. If Roy loses tonight, it just wasn't meant to be. Last night, we saw Lance snap out of it, and Hunter showed some plate discipline....yea....I dig.

Ok. Single. That's cool.
4-1 Astros.. bases loaded for Matsui
by entropic soul on Sep 25, 2008 8:13 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
Matsui in a run.
Bourn has got himself a bases loaded situation for the second time in two innings. Let’s see him clear them again. :)
5-1 Astros after the Matsui walk.
And a fresh pitcher comes in to face Bourn.

Meanwhile, Corey Hart gets caught stealing second.
Was 1st and 3rd with 1 out. Now, just 3rd with 2 outs and Rickie Weeks batting.
Score still tied 1-1.

Didn't they have a single, homer combo once?
Or back to back homers or something like that?

Roy
in position for another win against the Reds. Deja Vu all over again…..

And in position for more RBIs
as Wiggy singles and Ausmus walks before him.
0 outs.

Oops. Matsui
I forget they are flipped around.
Matsui gets it done with a single. 6-1 Astros.
Bourn gets his chance now.

oh yea
he just doesnt hit for power. whatsoever. geoff blum is a better power threat. even hideki “godzilla” matsui never hit for power in the bigs. our longer season probably had some effect. also, dont discount the day games at wrigley. can wear a hitter out.

What if we hadn’t lost so many damned games to the Pirates.
Despite the manhandling by the Cubs in Wrigley North, we’re still ahead of them for the year. How come we couldn’t do that against the Bucs?
