Wallace's chase rate is really, really bad this year. His home run distance is excellent, but he's either fishing or fooled too much.

Not really, no, but it was a great throw by Duda.

Absolutely, and Shoppach did what he is paid to do. Still, if Marwin had had just a touch more speed, it would have been a run.

Greene bounces out to Parnell to end the Astro uprising. 1-1.

If frogs had wings...it was a great baseball play. You HAVE to try to score that run, make them make a highlight play. They did. Good baseball, all the way around.
