Anyone know where I can watch this.

I agree, somewhat...but I think it also depends on the catcher and pitcher.
Last year, I felt that Cooper challenged the best catchers, as well as lefthanded pitchers, when it wasn’t a good percentage….even with good runners.
In the interest of fairness
It looks like Wainwright is getting robbed on some of these called balls.

Tejada strikes out
inevitably, someone is going to say that situational hitting is killing the Astros. To some degree, that’s true. But I’d say it’s more true that the Astros NEED to capitalize on these situations only because they get so few of them.
Astros were a good hitting team in the clutch last year.
I hope we’re not seeing regression to the mean this year.

McCarver makes an interesting point about Pudge's arm
but the Astros actually gave up the fewest SBs in baseball last season

National announcers
“Berkman, he’s no Albert Pujols, but look at his stats…very much like Mickey Mantle”
Many good points being made by the FOX guys
If Berkman could just avoid going after the breaking balls going down low, he’d be at a Pujols level. Even then, his numbers do resemble Mantle’s

I'd like a better look
but I think pudge got it when it was barely fair.
I think it’s not where the player’s BODY was when he touches it in fair territory, but where the ball is when it’s touched. Once he touches it anywhere in fair territory, it’s a fair ball.
somebody correct me please.
I'm pretty sure that's correct

he better watch it with LaRussa...
I recall two years ago when he pulled Ryan as a rookie for not running. It was in the first inning, and Ryan headed to the infield after he made the 3d out, and LaRussa told him come over here….
bonehead move by rasmus
bunted in front of the place
I think Pudge intentionally touched it just fair and pushed it further fair. heads up play Pudge
I'm still pissed they got a run on the board

it was hit pretty hard
hard to tell if Matsui got a good jump or not. it seemed like one you might expect him to get to
he dove for the ball and it was a franction of second too late.
I didn’t see the jump either. but it didn’t look that bad to me.
I want to...
double-fist pound some Stone Pale Ale, but it will leave me out of the running for dinner. Oh the possibilities! Lets score some runs Astros…
A Walk Is As Good As A Hit.
Matsui K's on what I thought was a foul ball (he acted like he did too)...
but ump says the ball got away from catcher.
so Twitter has nuked the fridge then
when buck & mccarver are talking about it
I may have to delete my account
McCarver says he tweated on twitter...
but I wonder if that is right. McCarver paused on the answer, and he doesn’t seem like the twitter type. Celebrities and big name people now hire other people to do their twitter work.
Wainright sits down 8 in a row...

everything the Cardinals do
is perfect according to Buck. Pujols is the perfect hitter and TLR can do no wrong.
bourn looked lost on that double
catchable ball. tougher play with the shadows around home and the sky apparently
Bourn looked horrible on that attempted catch.
May have been uncatchable anyway.
He never saw the ball, according to McCarver.
sun is killing Bourn
I think he could’ve gotten it were it not for the distractions of the ball coming out of a shadow.

on GameDay
it was about 93, thigh-high, on inside corner. hard to say for sure, but I bet he probably wanted it further in off the plate
have to wonder if outcome in that inning
is different if Astros had managed to put a few runs on the board in the first few innings. Just in terms of the mindset of Oswalt
bizarre DP
Berkman picks a hot grounder, steps on first and short hops Tejada at 2nd. Molina actually beat the throw, but slid off the bag and Tejada tagged him.

weird conundrum
I’ve had this feeling a couple times already this season when Michaels or whoever that utility infielder comes up to pinch hit.
I miss Orlando Palmeiro.
It’s completely irrational and I don’t want him back, but there’s this thought when Jason Michaels is announced as the pinch hitter and you just say, “who?”. I’m actually all in favor of cheap(er) guys who can play in favor of overpriced veterans, but I have to admit, there’s something there. I imagine that’s one reason managers/GM’s hang on to those type guys as much as they do.
anyway, the game is depressing so I thought I’d throw that out and let y’all tear it apart
Palmeiro was a good reserve player for a number of years as an Astros.
But the Astros kept him for too long….after he had outlived his usefulness. The Astros did the same with Jose Vizcaino…and I was a big fan of Viz. But he was a great role player for several years, then fell off a cliff.
Cards getting a bunch of lucky crap now.
Schumaker on with a broken bat grounder to Tejada. And Rasmus with a bouncer over Blum’s jump. 2 on no outs.
