7/3 Astros (Cy Clemens) vs. Marmol (and crap) 7:05 CSN

[texascub]

Ouch, I bet that didn't feel good. His head bounced off of the scoreboard.

[Blueheart05]

Come on Walker, pickup the RBI.

[texascub]

Just a little bit harder and that's through the hole, but that was a nice play to get to the ball and a nice throw by Everett.

Taveras grounded out to third, 5-3

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

In other news, Corey Patterson just cranked a homer off McCarthy.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Lamb grounded out to second, 4-3

[texascub]

Marmol looks much better this inning. He's starting to get more grounders and he's starting to pitch instead of just throwing.

Yeah, I'm watching that game on Comcast in DC (O's announcers) and totally called it.

 

 

The O's announcer just said that Corey may be the greatest package of speed and power in the game... right...

[Blueheart05]

In other news, Corey Patterson just cranked a homer off McCarthy.

 

Overall he has 2 hits, a stolen base, 1 RBI, and 2 runs scored.

DLee's bat is a little slow tonight.

 

Actually, he was out in front of that one...

dlee just got violated there.

Yep, he's now 31-36 in SBA this year and his other numbers are too shabby either.

ARam's dead on though, he's had some wicked rips in his first 2 AB's.

[Blueheart05]

The little ball hawks are loud.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Ramirez flied out to left field

[texascub]

Wow, that was a rain maker; too bad we couldn't trade some of that height for distance.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Jones walked

[texascub]

Good lord, Jones working a count and getting a walk? Who would've thought he could do such a thing after the way this season started?

[Fred Hornkohl]

Jones stole second base

[Blueheart05]

and stealing a base. :shock: He's doing everything right offensively now.

[texascub]

Jones stealing a base too. He didn't have that big of a lead, I'm surprised he got in by such a wide margin; Ausmus' arm isn't near what it used to be.
