It’s been glaringly apparent to most that Roy hasn’t been Roy so far this year. Whether you believe it’s because of injury, pitching to contact or just that he’s lost his edge, the results show he’s been anything but an ace. Too bad the Astros don’t play the Reds every 5th game. Read More

Minute Maid Park – Houston, Texas
Dodgers 5
Astros 2
W: Billingsly (8-7) | L: Backe (5-9) | S: Saito (14)
When the Astros returned to Houston having taken 2 of 3 from the red-hot Rays to end a 6-series losing streak, the hope was to keep the momentum rolling, of adequate pitching and timely hitting. Then they took 2 of 3 from the Rangers. Then the Red Sox. Was the tide beginning to turn in the Good Guys favor after a downright shitty stretch of baseball?

The banging sound coming from the back of the 1969 Buick Skylark got louder as authorities approached. They had received a tip that there may be someone trapped in the trunk of the vehicle parked in a vacant office park about half a mile from Tropicana Field. Their fears confirmed, police picked the trunk’s lock and to their surprise, they found someone who had been missing since mid-April.Read More

Birds 7
W: Burres | L: Chacon | S: Sherrill
Phew, the stench is heating up on the horseshit show as it finished it’s stop in crime-infested Baltimore on about as low a note as can be played. Tonight’s shitburger marks the 8th straight loss, the 2nd straight sweep and the 7th straight series loss dating all the way back to just after the Phillies split in late May. Add to that 6 straight interleague losses and there’s not a lot to feel good about this team.

With 8 HRs last night, the Prostate Cancer Foundation may have wished they scheduled that game for their Home Run Challenge to raise money for prostate cancer research, instead of today’s match-up of Ben Sheets vs. Brian Moehler. No need to worry. Read More
