Brewers 0, Astros 2
W: Wandy Rodriguez, L: Yovani Gallardo, S: Jose Valverde
I have to admit, today was a sweet Sunday. The Astros won and I spent the day at the beach. I can only share what looks to be the highlights due to the reactions in the Game Zone.
Astros Highlights:
Wandy Rodriguez went 7 innings of shut out baseball. He gave up 5 hits and 3 walks. Good day Mr. Rodriguez.
Michael Bourn went 1 for 3, with a walk. He made a great defensive play. I seriously love the way this kid plays.
Geoff Blum got the runs on the board with his 2-run home run in the 4th inning.
Game Analysis:
The Astros won the series against the Brewers. I would not get to excited if I were you though. The Saturday game they lost was a total beat down. Unfortunately, Bazardo got beat to shit in the game. I’ll leave the discussion of whether he was used inappropriately up to others. But with Cooper managing the team, it would not surprise me that he was used worse than a woman in a wham-bam thank you ma’am kind of way.
Bench Tidbits:
I am looking for recommendations for any eateries in Surfside. We went to the beach there today and have no idea if there are any good eateries there.
George Strait serenaded me Saturday evening. I don’t care how old that man is, he is still AWESOME. It is almost silly how many of his songs bring back memories for me. I also enjoyed Blake Shelton. He did a good job and looks nice too.
Special thanks to Limey for making sure the boy that knocked my drink out my hand replaced it. That was a very gentlemanly thing to do. That was a fun night. I’m glad Andy threw himself a birthday party. Also, apologies to Beauty Queen for not getting back to you to confirm that I would be attending.
Astros head to Florida for some games this week. Let’s hope the weather is good, the Astros bats are hot, and their pitching worthy of us. Well, they probably need pitching better than what would be worthy of us. Check out Craig’s Series Preview for more in-depth information regarding the series.
