Cincinnati Reds Houston Astros
Jerry Hairston Jr. - LF Kazuo Matsui - 2B
Corey Patterson - CF Michael Bourn - CF
Joey Votto - 1B Miguel Tejada - SS
Edwin Encarnacion - 3B Lance Berkman - 1B
Jay Bruce - RF Geoff Blum - 3B
Jeff Keppinger - SS Hunter Pence - RF
Danny Richar - 2B Ty Wigginton - LF
Paul Bako - C Brad Ausmus - C
Johnny Cueto - P Roy Oswalt - P

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.
