gotta think the sox are happy with getting outta that only down 1

 

[Joe]

pedro looks good but he allowed a run and threw 25 pitches in the 1st inning. so far so good. lieber looks good too.

 

[Miguel]

Come on Brand...settle down.

 

[dskillzhtown]

I blame it all on Lance and not walking Poojuls...dumb mistakes.

Everyone was saying Puhjols (sp) should be pitched around since Rolen is hitting like a grandma right now. I still think we should have started Munro. This 3 day rest thing is not just a myth.

 

[Miguel]

THERE YOU GO BRAN! LET's GO

Ensberg, Viz, Ausmus let's get movin!

 

[Matrix]

I think we should just clone Clemens and Beltran...that can take down the Cards.

 

[Desperado]

Wedge, take the Berkman avatar off! you're jinxing him!

 

[Ninja Scooter]

RING 'EM UP, PEDRO! MAHOW MAHOW!

 

[Miguel]

Christ Backe hit that one a ton.

But it was foul.

 

[Joe]

lieber NEEDS to get a quick inning here. get pedro back out there ASAP.

 

[olimario]

Astros better pull themselves together and score 8+

 

[olimario]

 

[Desperado]

Let's hope Backe can keep rollin. 5 K's now.

 

[olimario]

FOX!
YOU SUCK!

I don't care about the diamond cam. It's stupid.
I don't like the 'off center' camera angle behind the pitcher. It's stupid.
I don't care what the stupid CG baseball has to say to the kiddies. It's stupid.

Time to stop sucking, FOX. I wish this game was on ESPN2.


DING DING DING DING
HOMERUN KENT!!!
4-2

 

[pixelated]

off center camera is perfect for WS HD

 

[Desperado]

lol Oli, I'm wit ya there. Fox sucks.

Let's hope Kent can keep rollin. 1st HR this postseason. [2 pitches before that you could hear some guy in the fans say "ground ball to Edmonds, Kent" haha]

4-2 go stros

 

[dskillzhtown]

off center camera is perfect for WS HD

Damned Str-8.

 

[olimario]

It's harder to tell where the ball is crossing the plate.

 

[olimario]

BEAUTIFUL DOUBLE PLAY!
Great end to that inning.

 

[Miguel]

TAILOR MADE DOUBLE PLAY!

BLUE STAR FOR MORGAN!

 

[pixelated]

its easier, I can tell how wide or how inside the ball is when crossing and the height. Also you get a sense of the speed the pitch is thrown better from the normal view

 

[Desperado]

It's harder to tell where the ball is crossing the plate.

Yeah I can't tell where the hell the balls and strikes are. Though the ump has missed a few calls.

BTW, when Milo retires Ash better take over as play-by-play man. LOVED his Kent HR call.

 

[olimario]

4-3
Damn it.
Hurry up, Backe. Get us out of this inning.

 

[Desperado]

Let's go Quailman!

 

[Miguel]

Good game Backe... never gone on 3 days rest before...and pitches a damn good game. Come on Quail Man....get Rolen's ass out and end the threat.

 

[olimario]

Should have left Backe in.
Damn it.

 

[pixelated]

last thing we need, rolen regaining confidence

 

[Eminem]

even though he didn't get on, that was a GREAT at bat by Damon. I absolutely LOVE watching duels like that, especially when the batter is swinging at everything and hitting it.

 

[Miguel]

Alright...let's get the bats goin!

 

[Desperado]

Garner. You can't keep making moves for the sake of making moves. please stop.

4-4 go stros

 

[Eminem]

jesus get on the board boston. being 1 hit by goddamn lieber.

 

[pixelated]

tired of these weak ass base hits

 

[Desperado]

That's about 5 ground balls that Qualls got they just didn't go to anybody.

 

[rc213]

 

[Mashing]

Yup... that's frustrating too. Qualls hasn't made bad pitches, they're just getting extremely lucky hits.

 

[olimario]

 

[Eminem]

wow what a disaster of an inning for the stros

 

[Desperado]

This game is over...Thanks Backe, you pitched well.

 

[Desperado]

I gotta get some sleep. It's a new day tomorrow...go Munro

 

[Eminem]

lieber gone


COWBOY UP

 

[Miguel]

LET'S GO ASTROS! Make these runs up right now! Get 2 right here with Big O

 

[Rodriguez]

Man, fuck you Tom Gordon.

 

[Eminem]

man tek is clutch. COME ON get 'em both home

 

[pixelated]

these calls...these strike calls are just...man

 

[speshylives]

Why pull Lieber on 82 FUCKING pitches!??

 

[Miguel]

It's Mueller Time!

Come on Bill....


and COME THE FUCK ON, ASTROS PEN. GET 3 QUICK OUTS

 

[Eminem]

god damn mueller sucks balls.


ALL UP TO YOU JESUS

 

[Eminem]

god damnit. what happened to damon these first two games?

 

[Fifty]

Man, I'd hate to be a Red Sox fan now (Sorry Mig, you don't count ) Nothing for 6 innings in these first two games......a surge in the 7/8th, and then nothing. Hopefully I'm wrong and the 9th can result in a miracle, but I doubt it.

 

[Eminem]

hey, remember last night when francona should have gone to faulk and he didn't, and it cost them 2 huge runs? i think it's gonna happen again. GET HIM IN THERE YOU MORON


i was pretty close
