I heard it on the radio, seems like it may have been a bad call... but the Phillies coulda shut the 'stros down after that or coulda score a bit more...

Walk off homer.

Did you see the catch? Late in the game, he went up Tal's hill and
caught a fly ball next to the flag poll. About 425 feet. Kid can play.

He's got to be in the running for rookie of the year.

The only problem with him, is the market he plays in. If he would be on the Yankees or Red Sox, ESPN would be all over him like stank on.......

He wont get much media attention playing for the Stros. Sad but true.

Have any of you seen a picture of him? He really does look like a kid. Amazing talent, though.
