Shark + Middle of Astros order = :(

I don't think we can hold them much longer.

Sadly, I think they can hold us for much longer.

Bourn singled to right field

[Sammy Sofa]

Dammit.

[Sammy Sofa]

WALK WALK WALK.

[Soul]

What? Why bunt when Bourn could steal it easy?

[JonJayCutler]

Guzman has to be hurt.

[CyHawk_Cub]

All you can do is laugh

Most managers are dinosaurs.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Matsui sacrificed, 1-4, Bourn to second

[Irrelevant Dude]

I can't believe nobody is testing Fox. Do they just not have a scouting report on him behind the plate or what?

[abuck1220]

that is some horrendous managing right there, folks.

[Flames24Rulz]

Guzman has to be hurt.

 

Hasn't he pitched the last three days?

[bcl412]

Tejada and Lee are each going to get a shot to get a hit (ok Lee will probably be walked). It probably ends here.

[CyHawk_Cub]

that is some horrendous managing right there, folks.

 

Cecil IBB'ing Koyie in the 9th was a classic as well...too bad Lou out-did that move in the same inning

At least give Bourn a chance to steal second. If it works, you bunt him to third and then all you need is a sac fly.
