The Astros and starting pitcher Zeke Astacio got the Silver Boot right up their arse Saturday during a ridiculous 3:00 pm start in Arlington, losing 18-3 in the 98? heat.
Astacio was pounded for 9 earned runs including four dingers in less than 2 innings of work. The bullpen also caved in trying to mop up the mess, allowing 4 more dingers and 9 more runs.
``We didn't pitch very good,'' Houston manager Phil Garner said. ``We made a bunch of mistakes and they didn't miss 'em. It was a tough go. I've been concerned since the first week. I've got no answers.''
The Astros will attempt to salvage a game of this series Sunday at 1:05. Roy Oswalt vs. Chan Ho Park.
