    So get this, i had a friend who went to the stros game and left at the end of the 7th inning!!!! he got to his house and recieved a text message saying "GO AUSMUS!" he didn't know wtf happened and turned on the tv. Needless to say he is kicking himself now! Kinda reminds me of my other friend who left right before tmac went for 13 in 30 against spurs! anyways GO ASTROS!! it feels good to have at least 2 of the 3 houston teams doing well. WE can beat the cards if we an get any offense going. our pitching is almost superior to theirs!

    The Astros missed again an opportunity to score when the bases are loaded in the early innings. Although they still manage to score 3 runs, it was already too late. Card's Reggie Sanders did his damage again like what he did for the D'Backs' Championship Team years ago. He's more of a threat than Pujols because he drives a lot of runs.

    Chris Burke is now officially a Killer B.

    This guy is playing great right now and I hope he can keep it going.

    I hope the Cardinals packed their earplugs because it's gonna be LOUD at Minute Maid Park!

    Bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz! Haha.

    Roy did it again. He seems to handle pressure better and I always have confidence everytime he pitch. Burke should be included in the starting line-up from now on. With a job well done on being a pinch-hitter(2HR) and 2 RBI playing in the starting line-up he might be the lucky charm for the Astros.

    Brad Lidge had me scared there when he gave up that RBI double. Luckily the Stros were able to pull it out.

    Sorry chineseafro, but it doesn't look like STL will win the series. The odds are in Houston's favor now.

    I hate your pitching staff. At the start of the series I was most scared of the Astro's pitching. Lidge... Lidge is just crazy.

    ...How quickly people forget about Rockets blowing a 2-0 lead.

    How about the Red Sox coming back from 0-3 down?

    Of course I remember that, but what are the odds? The Astros are in great form right now, and it doesn't look like anyone can beat their pitching. Brad Lidge is the best closer in the game and their offense is not as bad as most think. The Cards are a good team and all, but I don't think they'll win the series.

    Just like what Locke said I felt nervous when Lidge gave a run with already 2 outs in the ninth. It's a good thing Eckstein's hit was caught otherwise Pujols might have the chance to win it for the Cards co'z he's pitching next. Lidge should be calm when facing left-handed batters.

    Astos win game 4.

    Man, lidge had me really scared, but we pulled it off. We should be able to win this series now, hopefully tomorrow.

    About the refs, they were unfair to both sides, and that jim edmonds call looked like a strike to me.

    How does everyone think the Stros will do against the White Sox?
