Giants 8, Astros 1
W: Jonathan Sanchez, L: Felipe Paulino
I went to this game and the best part of the night was when the 3 1/2 year old with us sang Take Me Out to the Ballgame. We left after that because she was done. It is probably the only time we have indulged her and left early. I guess she knew how it was going to end.
There is some interesting theories about how the Astros lost this game, but they only had 4 hits in through six innings. I think that had lots to do with it. This team does not seem to be playing with the fire they need to be able to overcome injuries. Every team has injuries throughout the season and they have to overcome them. Granted the Astros have some really tough ones right now, but such is the life dealt by the BaseBallGods.
Bench Tidbits:
Read Alkie talking to himself during the game in the GameZone.
Andymas. Andy’s having a birthday party Friday, anyone want to go? Granted I do have another birthday party to attend that day. Freida, Andy, Debbie and Darrin all have the same birthday. Early happy birthday shout outs to you all. (Granted Debbie and Darrin don’t read my recaps, hell Freida and Andy probably don’t either.) But it’s the thought that counts.
Not surprising to me is that someone is going to get pissed off by deciding what kind of music to like by Texas performers.

Oh and I have a ticket to the Eagles-Cowboys game January 3, 2010. Yee-haw.
