Astros 6
Giants 10
Sorry, back problems. Terrible pain. Here’s your recap: Astros lost.
Play Moehler off, Keyboard Coop:
“Definitely a disappointing day,” Houston manager Cecil Cooper said. “We could have used a gritty seven innings, but we didn’t get it. I thought Moehler threw the ball OK early in the ballgame but in the sixth couldn’t make a pitch. We needed him to kind of pitch out of that sixth-inning jam, and he really couldn’t make a pitch there. He was throwing [Whiteside] a sinker to get him to roll over, and it didn’t sink. That kind of costs us.”
