I'm more surprised he is actually putting Keppinger in the lineup. Did someone wake him from his nap to tell him Sean West was a left handed pitcher?  Certainly not Ed Romero if so!

These constant lineup changes surely have to be getting Wade/Smith's attention.

They should keep testing Hampton's knee

Cantu hits a 2 run HR with 2 outs. Hampton just can't make it out of the first without getting scored on.

From what I can see tonight, Hampton is doing well. He made a bad 3-2 pitch to Cantu, who hit it a mile. But other than that, he's got some dip in his sinker. Hopefully, he can give us six quality innings.

El Caballo just missed a round tripper, and settles for a two-out double.

Pence flies out to CF for the third out. 2-0 Marlins after 2.5.

Hampton could use a little help. Time to score some runs.

Kepp leads off the 5th with a long fly out to Boneyface in CF

Kaz up for the third time. Just one hit away from Nippon immortality and he strikes out. Maybe next time Kaz.

Q gets another two-out hit. Theme of the game. A double off the wall in deep LF.
Title: Re: Astros @ Marlins, August 13, 2009
Post by: Col. Sphinx Drummond on August 13, 2009, 07:20:44 pm
Hampton with a golden opportunity to help his cause, hits a single up the middle scoring Quintero. Q hurts himself sliding into home.

Bourn follows with a double, Tejada up with two outs with Hampton on third and Bourn on second.

Post by: Col. Sphinx Drummond on August 13, 2009, 07:25:56 pm
Miggy batting, Q is getting his ankle tapped up on the bench. Tejada hits a liner that carries to the right fielder who makes the catch for the third out. After 4.5, Marlins 2 Astros 1.
Title: Re: Astros @ Marlins, August 13, 2009
Post by: Col. Sphinx Drummond on August 13, 2009, 07:28:28 pm
Just like that. Marlins 3 Astros 1.
Title: Re: Astros @ Marlins, August 13, 2009
Post by: Col. Sphinx Drummond on August 13, 2009, 07:37:02 pm
West grounds out to short for the first out.
Hampton strikes out Coghlan, two away.
Boneyface gets an infield single down the third base line. Kepp tries a bare-hand grab but the throw is off and late.
Ramirez flies out to left field for the third out.

After 5 innings it's Marlins 3 Astros 1

Hampton looks good for another inning.

Sounds like Sampson needs to be shut down before he turns into Backe.

I'd like a game called by Barzilla if he could also do the voice of Jack Sutherford.

I was JUST thinking - what the fuck are the Astros doing running Sampson out there every fucking game? Do they expect him just magically to become effective at some point in the future? Why not put Backe in the starting rotation and hope he wins the Cy Young someday?

just reporting what i heard.

i think the whole pitching staff is going to want to go on the dl to get away from cooper

I hope he hasn't changed his delivery because of the hip and then screwed up something else.

I just don't know how Tal Smith can endure this.

There are going to be some lonely fucking nights at MMP over the rest of the season.

I hope they'll be lonely enough that the front office will begin to realize that no promotion Pam can dream up will result in as much AIS as a winning ballclub will.

The Marlins won't get to bat in the 9th so I doubt it.

Talk about somebody getting screwed over, Sampson had a 2.09 ERA as late as June 26th when
Cooper used him for the 6th time in 7 games. Straight downhill after that, including a stint on the DL after the July 10th game.
