Not much to recap. Complete game shutout from the young Mets righthanded starter John Maine. Frustration level for the Astros offense is at a high point. Taylor Buchholz continues to have an “Oswalt inning” every game, this time in the second allowing a freakin’ grand salami. The Astros appeared defeated after 2 innings, in my observation.
More roster changes in store for today’s game, as Brandon Backe returns from the DL to start game two of this series. I hope he can still hit.
