ODELAY (SnS) – Giving further proof that the team has apparently gone and collectively forgot what it learned in high school physics class, the punchless Houston Astros lost their fifth consecutive game tonight, falling to the Los Angeles Dodgers here, 6-1. The Astros did not apply any positive force on offense, and apparently learned their defense from Frank McCourt’s divorce attorneys, having failed to grasp the basic concept of what-goes-up, must-come-down. Somewhere.Read More

MILWAUKEE (SnS) – Still stunned by their sudden Pence-lessness, the staggering Houston Astros dropped the contest to the Milwaukee Brewers here tonight, losing by a tally of 6-2. Brewer hurler Yovany Gallardo picked up his 12th win in the process, while Houston lefty J.A. Happ lost his lucky 13th, and saw his ERA creep up over 6.00 (the Lima Line?)Read More

ST. LOUIS (SnS) – For the second straight muggy night, the cellar-dwelling Houston Astros took down the top-of-the-division St. Louis Cardinals convincingly, here at the Cardinals home park on the banks of the Big Muddy. The peasants from Texas stormed and overran the castle tonight to the tune of a 5-3 victory, led by a resurgent Carlos Lee and aided by a gritty pitching performance from Wandy Rodriguez.Read More

ST. LOUIS (SnS) – The slumping Houston Astros rode a fine starting performance by Bud Norris and some solid relief work to outlast the St. Louis Cardinals here Wednesday night, 4-2. The win broke a five–game losing streak for the Astros, and insures they’ll leave St. Louis taking at least one game in this series (the 4-game set wraps up tomorrow evening at 7:15 CDT.)Read More
