Astros at Cardinals – I Wouldn’t Dig in There if I Were You

Posted on May 27, 2008 by Craig in Series Previews

The Astros went 4-3 on a mediocre homestand, though it included some exciting wins against the Phillies and a series win against the dumbshit Cubs. Now it’s back onto the road, believe it or not, for another long-ass trip to three cities. It’s all NL Central for the next two weeks, with visits to St. Louis, Milwaukee, and Pittsburgh, and then back home for another series with the Jakes and then the Brewers again. Whew.

(Wait! Pittsburgh? Holy shit, I thought you guys had moved to Canada or something! Is it true, I heard the Wilson Sisters may be getting back together! Tell Dirty Sanchez we said hi!)

Anyway, the shitbag Co-Ards. They’re a half-game behind the BOOK IT! Cubs, and one game ahead of the Astros. They’re just getting back to New Jake City after a West Coast trip where they won two out of three against both the Dojers and Fathers. They were late getting home because they let Albert Pujols fly the plane; he insisted on hotdogging through the Gateway Arch and crashed into one of the legs.

Video: Final Play of the Game

Traditionally, what is considered a dramatic finish to a game is an offense induced walk off play. If it is a homerun, there is supposedly no other more fan craze inducing play, plus the players get to wait at home and pound the crap out of the teammate who hits said walk-off homerun. It’s a ritual often looked forward to by players and fans alike.

But what do you do when you win with a defensive play? What if said defensive play is a dramatic as can be, not often executed as well, double play?
