How many homeruns have been hit in this series?
-
I like Darin Erstad...really, I do. But he's killing me.
-
Perhaps Coach, if he's watching, can chime in, but Backe looks awfully stiff to me. Very straight up, not bending his back. He doesn't look comfortable.
-

You think change is in order?
-
He's on pace for 9.

I can't imagine he's not feeling some pressure out there tonight.
I'm really feel for him right now.
-

I can't see what he's bringing to the table right now. On the field at least. There are certain guys that you keep around for other reasons. Guys who are good for the club even when they're not playing well, as the saying goes. Not sure if Erstad is one of those guys or not.
-
The live video available on MLB At Bat for iPhone is pretty damned impressive when connected to wifi. 3G, eh.

Well, at least that would raise more than $150k for prostate cancer.

I get the sense that he's an "above-average" clubhouse guy, if that's what you mean, but yeah... he might be near the end of the line. I suppose Abercrombie would be the guy you'd call up to be an extra outfielder?
-
Very nice diving grab and throw by Kepp to get the DP.
-
Astros need to score some runs

I just tried it during the Jakes game to see how it looked, and I'm blacked out because I'm in their home territory.
-
Let the Little League tribute begin....
-
shit
-
Backe's defense certainly isn't helping him any this inning...
-

I would like to see Ramirez, at least you gain a spectacular defensive OF'er. Heck, can Michaels and bring up Abercrombie too.
-
Well now, doesn't look like the pre-game clubhouse meeting had any effect on this team.
-
"Shit's" just the beginning, BG.
The callous sophisticates laughed at Houston's tiny team. Kliban reset.
-

Do they ever?

I was just hoping Backe had a good game. This is the first game in a long time that has been getting me upset.

Time for the Rome karma to kick in......allegedly.......for Lance and his teammates.

LA might be the modern day equivalent.
Fuck the Lakers. Jesus, Mr. Happy!
-
nice hit mr. quintero

So, has anyone mentioned the significance of the Rangers deciding to wear battle red for this series? I've never seen these unis before, so I wonder what this is all about.
-
Hello, Newman....errrrrrr....Nolan.
Maybe?
-

Why would the Rangers want to copy the Houston Texans?
-
Houston has now worn the road greys (nice looking unis too) for four games in a row. Looks like maybe Nolan decided he was just not going to allow the Astros to wear the blood red road unis this series. "Not in my house!"
-

Hence the question.
-
wright's turn now.
4 hits over 4 innings wasn't bad. just two bad hits.

It's all Wright now, baby.

Spaz has traded the swing and whiff in on the low slider in for the high heat...
-
Every which way but loose. A run's a run.
-
wow, this is a great change of pace. keep it up rangers. please.
-
If Lee can't score on that groundball by Kaz then he needs to be on the DL
-

In a tie game in the 7th at the Ballpark in Arlington? That'd be about as silly as bunting over one of the leagues fastest players with none out in the 7th in a tie game at the Ballpark in Arlington...
-
Oh, never mind already.
Go, Rockets....and stuff.

I see what you did there. I would have let bourn try and steal 2nd, myself. If it works, then you can either swing away or bunt him to 3rd with keppinger.

At least Q wasn't dragging around Carlos Lee's bass boat.

-
Nah, that run means squat.
And if he reaches base?
-
yeah, my prediction in my recap from tuesday was wrong.

And if he reaches base?
Then Byrd moves to 2B anyway.

Yesterday,
"Every loss is tough, but tonight is really about Pudge," said outfielder Hunter Pence, ... "It's an amazing accomplishment and to reminisce over what he's done, we're really happy for him. That's the big story."
