August 11, 200916 yr The bats stay hot! BTW Nuñez is gonna hurt himself out there one of these days...He is hard to watch out there on the mound What did Nunez do? He slipped and basically did at cartwheel on the mound.
August 11, 200916 yr Decent enough outing from RVH. Obviously it would be better if he could get to the 6, even 7 inning mark, but 5 frames of 2 run ball is fine, especially considering he wasn't on form last time out. I didn't see much of the game, but why on earth did they walk Nick Johnson to get to Hanley? That just seems...DUMB! cuz NJ is bringing sexy back

He slipped and basically did at cartwheel on the mound. One time, it looked like his shoe stuck in the ground and fell forward and did a cartwheel. Then the other one he slipped. So it was too much traction, then not enough traction....lol
August 11, 200916 yr Still getting over that series against the Nationals, but a four game win streak is certainly helping. Let's go Marlins!
August 11, 200916 yr Man I just typed up a real good post but for some reason an error occurred To sum it up.. Good Win. Offense sparked up in the 9th making the stros play catch up. RVH with a decent outing but did a good job keeping the damage to a minimum. Good Job by Sanches, Donnelly and Leo out of the pen. Lindy needs to gain control of his offspeed pitches so he can use them earlier in counts to fool hittters and also spot his fastball in the corners since any major league hitter should be able to rip a fastball no matter how hard when it's right down the middle. Tomorrow we have to jump on Oswalt early to get him off his game and Volstad needs to keep the ball low and make them hit a lot of grounders. 3.5 Back in both the Wild Card and NL East while riding a 4 game win streak. Things are looking good for the Fish.

August 11, 200916 yr 4th win in a row. Oh yeah and Peter Gammons just said John Baker was in the movie Summer Catch. I heard that too and I cracked up. Now I need to watch the movie again to see him...and Jessica Biel, of course
August 11, 200916 yr Just...keep...WINNING!!! HELL YEAH I just realized I probably sounded like the kid in the wheelchair (Stevie?) from Malcolm in the Middle I *enhales* have no *enhales* idea *enhales* what *enhales* you are trying *enhales* to say *enhales* I think you mean "inhale'???
August 11, 200916 yr Shame Lindstrom couldn't finish the deal, but I'll take the win. Solid night for the offense and a decent outing for RVH. Hopefully the bats can stay awake for Oswalt tonight. Is it possible to have 3 mancrushes at once? I'm developing some serious feelings for Coghlan and John Baker right now. I feel like I'm cheating on Hanley though...

Our domination over them had to catch up with us to a somewhat realistic level. It was going to happen eventually.
August 11, 200916 yr Im sitting in section 149, and after The 2 run double Lindstrom gave up some guy behind me said "You F*ckin suck A$$" then a security guard came and took him out the game. WTF? Why would they do that?

Why would they do that? They try to keep a respectable environment at the stadium and If a security guard here's someone using repeated profane language then that person will probably be escorted out of the stadium. I've seen it happen plenty of times.

Just as well your stadium rules don't apply for soccer games here as I imagine security would have a tough time trying to escort a capacity crowd of 50,000 out of a Rangers game for chanting sectarian songs which include lines such as "F*ck the Pope"
August 11, 200916 yr Apparently someone is going to be playing John Baker in the new Moneyball movie too!
