Not sure if that makes up for the blunder the other day, but Bourn does a nice job scoring from 2nd on a sac fly to CF.

That talk with Coop might've worked.

Damn. Infante drew a leadoff, nearly-hit-in-the-stomach walk. Infante on 1st, 0 outs, Francoeur up.

Francoeur hits to shallow left, Wiggy fields it to 3rd to hold the runner... Infante on 2nd, Francoeur on 1st, 0 outs, B. Jones (I think) up for the Bravos.

Oh, jumping Jesus on a pogo stick... 4-4 game now, top 9th.

Discussion by the umps.... Brandon Jones called safe at 1st when the throw wasn't in time... apparently the 1st base ump, who called Jones safe, was watching the ball and not Jones, so when Jones was behind the ump, he made a fake towards 2nd and 3rd base Ed Hickox (?) ump caught it... so Valverde, after a failed 3-6-1 double play, fell, and the ball trickled away from him... but he grabbed it and tagged Jones when he was off the bag in case he'd gone towards 2nd... good thinkin'.

But, in the end, Infante came across the plate, so it's tied up...

And now Chipper Jones drew a pinch walk.

Josh Anderson broke the bat, hitting past Matsui to Gunter... Anderson on 1st, C. Jones on 3rd, Prado up, Astros (and me) really friggin' nervous...

Thanks. I thought they said Hickox. Between trying to type and that mess of a play, it was hard to keep up.



Yeah, that was great to hear that replay of the audio on West... kudos to him for bein' on the ball.

We were eating out at a place where we had the game on the screen but no audio due to music being played for the college kids in the place, and have managed to make it home for the 8th and beyond.

Mets lost 6-1, yay.

Quintero grounded out to Infante.

Somebody dialed 911 and asked for the paramedics, and Darin Erstad answered the summons... walk-off solo homer to right. WHOOOOOO!
