Maybe the Astros will use six pitchers and no hit the Yankees.

For one inning, if Coop's still at the helm.

Naturally, Roy will start.  Since he's the team's "ace", despite Wandy having a better year (at least by ERA) than Roy's best season.

But, while the one in 86 was a loss, it ended up being a great year.

Fredia is right...Astros brass will have to bring in Carl Spackler in his Hazmat suit to clean up the joint immediately after the scrubbies leave town.

I was at that game.  Around the 7th inning, it started to dawn on the crowd that the Astros were pitching a no-hitter.  It was a truly bizarre game.

Read this last in your wildest Creole speak (and a little imagination) and then ask yourself why the scrubs are there at all.

Me too. Between Oswalt leaving in the 2nd and Pete Munro walking a bunch of guys, it was easy not to realize the Yankees didn't have a hit until about then...
