Astros lose in 10 to Braves 4-3
« on: March 05, 2005, 05:17:41 pm »
Suffering through Milo's impressionistic call of the game and Brownie's declaiming in mid season Shakespearean form, we were able to figure out that the Astros dropped a rare extra inning spring training game at home vs the Braves.  The game featured 2 innings of Oswalt pitching in a rocking chair, very sharp and even snuck in some in progress change ups.  Turk twitched through an inning, and fellow non roster invitees and Wandy Rogriguez also kept the Braves down.   However Dan Wheeler didn't sound too sharp and Chad Qualls worked two innings for the loss.

The offense showed no life until the Braves, who were dealing out new pitchers like a coked up baccarat dealer, started cycling through their suspects.

Jason Lane played center and Charlton Jimerson had a chance to show off his arm in right.  Jeff Bagwell played in the field today and had to scoop out a couple bad throws to save his infielders.  Adam Everett and Craig Biggio worked out some confusion on who takes the cutoff.  Braves fans seemed to outnumber Astros fans.  Alan Ashby spent some time googling Jamie Lee Curtis and advertising eye surgery.  JD was making up stats for the Braves minor leaguers.  It was a Spring Training game and no one got hurt.
