A Brewer win in extra innings coupled with an Astros loss meant the Astros fell seven games behind the Wild Card pace with 21 games to go on our schedule. Makes life a little more difficult, but there is a lot to look forward to tonight, besides trying to rebound from a tough loss last night. Most notably is Roy Oswalt making his first start since dominating the Cubs this past week. His numbers are slowly starting to look more Oswalt-like, which is nice to see going into the last stretch of games this season. Jeff Francis has had the home run bug bite him this season too- quite the opposite of last night's starter, Ubaldo Jimenez. Hopefully the bats get going early, and Roy can win number 14.
