[Boosty_Hondo]

what channel they going to be playing on

[Gobbla2001]

FSSW I think, I looked earlier and they were showing dudes hitting these big balls over this tall net, all done while in the sand, what in the hell were they doing that for?

Guess they'll take those crazy guys off when the game starts...

[Maroon87]

I'll bet MLB waits as long as they possibly can to get this game in today. At least they should.

actually when Roger started pitching it was the last time they were above .500 (or at) until just recently... so he came on and we started skidding...

If the bullpen had been solid as usual this year instead of blowing leads about once a week, the Astros would be setting up their playoff rotation right now. But they can't seem to do anything easy. They have to have their backs to the wall.:mad:

[Maroon87]

The game is now scheduled to begin at 3pm.:cool:

Astros are 4 back in theWild Card but only 1-1/2 back in the NL Central with 4 games left. So it's division title or tee times at this point.:doh:

[Bandera YaYa]

how many games do they have left to play?? Oh man......getting close to the playoffs!!!

[AggieJohn]

4 games to make up 1.5 games.....we basically need them to lose these two nights in a row, and the astros win...

[Bull19]

SCORE IS CURRENTLY 0-0 TOP OF 3RD

[Phil C]

Come on Astros! Fight and Win!

[sahen]

astros r up 3-0 going to the bottom of the 5th

[GWOOD]

oswalt is on today. I wished we could score a couple of more runs just in case we have to hand it over to the bullpen!!

[Phil C]

Way to go Astros. Keep fighting and hold them off. We need this win!

[awizzy]

[Bulldog_12]

I really hope the Stros make me eat my words from a few weeks ago when I said they wouldnt make post-season play.

That would be some good tasting crow - I hope to have some myself.

[GWOOD]

6 outs to go!!

For this weekend the Milwaukee Brewers are my 2nd favorite team in baseball.

[Bull's-eye]

Astros have only 3 hits, but they scored 3 runs. :clap:

[SWMustang]

Trevor Miller OWNS Duffy

[Bull19]

LIGHTS OUT LIDGE TIME,,,ETA 9 MIN

[sahen]

astros win 3-0


pressure is on the cards tonight, they play at 7 against the brew crew

[SWMustang]

Cards have Marquis pitching - 14-15 ERA about 6. Doug Davis for the Brewers. His last few starts have been good, but that's just from memory.

[Technoredneck]

Can anybody say 9-in-a-row? GO ASTROS!

[tigerpride_08]

i really hope they make it to the playoffs...they are on a great run...

[Maroon87]

Cards down 2-0 in the 1st inning.:cool:

[Bull Butter]

Brew Crew up 4-0 in the top of 3rd. Marquis already got yanked after putting 2 more guys on base in the 3rd.

[awizzy]

now its 5-0..favor of the beer makers

[Bull's-eye]

8-0 top of the 3rd

[Gobbla2001]

this is why I like beer so much...

[Bull's-eye]

9-1 Brewers top of the 4th.

[MagicMan]

9-1 top 6th

[Leopards,class of 75]

Go Brewers!

[Adidas410s]

Let's go Brewers, Let's go!!! :clap: :clap: :clap:

[Maroon87]

Brewers win 9-4. Cards up by 1/2 game on the Astros with 3 games left.


I LOVE SEPTEMBER BASEBALL!!!:clap: :clap: :cool:

610 sports radio in Houston had short blurb from Preston Wilson in press conference after last night's Cardinal game.
He said pressure still on Astros since they are still behind even though only 1/2 game.
I disagree. Cards can spin it anyway they want, but I think ALL the pressure is on Cards. They have to not only try to win to make playoffs, but try to avoid being remembered as biggest choke artists in baseball history.
Astros were already written off before their run, so no reason for them to press. They're just having fun right now.
Go Stros!

I agree. They look like they're having the time of their lives right now.:cool:

You're right, they aren't supposed to win it so they can't lose it. If they just go have fun I'm sure good things will happen. You know the Cards are feeling the noose drop over their necks even if it never tightens up. The Astros have already exceeded most peoples expectations of them for this season so if they jsut keep on keeping on, who know, maybe they can be this years "team nobody want to face" in the playoffs.

GO ASTROS!

[AggieJohn]

GO STROS

[GreenMachine]

Second that...Go Stros!!!!! :clap:
