You’d think with Senor Myers launching la pelota at Los Rojos de Cincinatti, that Los Astros would be looking a good chance of a series win. Bring in la escoba! Alas, it was not to be on this dia muy bonito, as Myers and his compadres in the bullpen did a great job of regalando a win to Cincy.
Aye Dios mio!
Los Astros had a chance in this game when it seemed all but improbable. What is turning out to be the profile for this 2011 version of nueve pelloteros is you cannot count them out. Down 6-1 in the game and Myers in the showers, el equipo de Houston battled back and had the tying run on second base after scoring two runs and pulling off an aggressive double steal. The best hitter on the team was at bat, so this looked good. But el joven Brett Wallace bounced a two hopper to third to end the threat. After that, Nelson “el launcho” Figuero just totally put the game out of reach by tossing batting practice and allowing Los Rojos to safely add to the lead and put this one away.
Now on to Pittsburgh and mano a mano con los Piratas!
