Bottom of 2nd, 1-0 Astro lead, good game with baserunners and a great tag out at the plate by the Cardinal catcher.
yeah who'da thunk it?
'stros have been this close before I believe.
Yeah, but we've had last minute chokes before (Philly and Mets.)
Its alright.
You obviously want to get this thing over.
Ball one....ball 2.....strike.....ball 3....ugh.....strike 2......yes!.....fly ball! ONE OUT!!
Bottom of the 8th, Astro hits a high fly out for the 1st out.
There you go. Fox is playing all the old tape.
Exorcise the demons.
And both Philly and the Mets only got to extra innings against the Astros because of horrible calls by the home plate ump in those games. Is this the revenge of Ryan and Knepper?
Garner will go with Lidge. Ya dance with the one that brung ya.

Ground out to short to 1st, 2 away.
