Don't know if it helps, buyt MLB.TV lists it as a KTXH game tonight rather than FSN game.

Bourgeois starts off the game with a 3-1 line drive through the hole into left off of Santana.

Bourgeois is forced at 2B on a grounder to 1B, Bourn on 1B. 1 out.

Spaz with a bouncer through the left side, Bourn to 2B. 1 out, runners on 1B and 2B.

KaBoink with a looper into center, Bourn scores, Pence to 2B.  HOU 1, NYM 0. 1 out, runners at 1B and 2B.

Johnson: flies out to left center, runners hold at 1B and 2B. 2 outs.

Blum back with the team today and in th dugout.

Sanchez: goes 3-0, then 3-2, and walks to load the bases. 2 outs.

Manzella: goes 2-0, then 3-2, runners going on the pitch, and hits a grounder that Wright fields on 3B - Lee running and sliding hard so was safe - and the throw to 1B not in time, Spaz scores. HOU 2, NYM 0. 2 outs, bases juiced.

Q: flies out to CF. 3 outs.

Middle 1: HOU 2, NYM 0

On mlb Extra Innings, I've got to watch the Mets broadcast team. They suck eggs. Hernandez said that the Astros fired all of the coaches and the manager at the ASB. Now the ancient Ralph Kiner joins them for the next inning. Great.

That sucks... MLB.TV has annoyed me a lot this year, but have absolutely loved being able to catch JD and Brownie for each game.

B3: Santana smashes 1 just off the line at 1B, Lee with a diving play to get the ball and steps on the bag for an out. Folks, that was a VERY nice play by Lee. Looked like a double off the bat. 1 out, none on.

Don't know what's gotten in to Carlos, but he's not the same guy we saw the first half. Noticeable improvement in hustle (and nope folks, its not just that he's hitting better so I am cutting him slack...).

The Mets are having a reunion of the 1986 team. Salt in the old wounds. But they've had some good interviews with some former players. And Kiner talks a lot with some good stories, which keeps Hernandez off mike.

FWIW, I thought that Bucknor got it right on the close foul call, and I usually disagree with him on some calls.

Simply stating the Spaz struck out doesn't even come close to explaining how embarrassing his swing was for strike 3.

B9: Lyon on the hill

Luis Hernandez (PH for Tejada): goes 2-2, fouls off a couple in the process, smashes one to 1B, Lee hits the ground to his right and tosses to Lyon from his knees. 1 out. NICE PLAY CARLOS!
In the end, my dissolution with the game of baseball will not be a result of any loss of love for the game, rather from the realization that I can no longer bear the anger its supposed stewards cause to be built up in my soul. -Lee (01/08/2013)

T9: 1 out, none on.

Carter (PH for Feliciano): shattered bat low pop-up, Lyon makes an over the shoulder basket catch to make the play. 2 outs.

B9: 2 outs, none on.

Pagan: broken bat grounder, Sanchez to his right and gets the quick toss to 1B to just beat the runner.

Simply stating the Spaz struck out doesn't even come close to explaining how embarrassing his swing was for strike 3.  

Agreed. Was going to go with the typical 'Spaz being Spaz' there on strike 3, but it was a 7-8ish pitch AB, and the rest of the AB wasn't nearly as bad as the goofy ass swing for the strikeout so let him slide...

Now back to watching the Texans stomp the Cowgirls.  BTW, this latest ad campaign by Bud Light is about an insulting and retarded a campaign as I've ever seen.
Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen.
