Bottom of 2nd, 1-0 Astro lead, good game with baserunners and a great tag out at the plate by the Cardinal catcher.
Pettitte is already up over 80 pitches.
The "deserve" to win b/c they have the lead. That's all. The little things only count if they lead to runs.
Probably just one more inning for Pettitte. It may depend on the Astros getting a couple runners on the next 2 innings.
1 out single for Lance.
Ensberg is due, down to .200.
Time for Ensberg to get a big hit. He hasn't had one all series.
Still hasn't
Carpenter has engaged cruise control.
And the Astros go down again to end the inning. Meanwhile, Indy is 1st and goal at the 2 minute warning, trailing 17-7.
How did I know? The boxes told me.

Touchdown Indy.
poor judgement to try to stretch it to a double
Grudzielanek was out by a mile.
The 'Stros need to put a crooked number on the board. At least let's tie it up. Time for a patented J-Lay solo shot to even the score.
Tonight we are all a part of Astro Nation.
Although I haven't quit my day job in Nats Nation.
Too high, J-Lay...
I liked the Nats. During the first half, it was like watching the Bad News Bears. They had everyone's castoffs and rejects and were making a very good run. Too bad they couldn't sustain it.
That's why you run through the bag EVERY TIME!
Rams 20, Colts 14 at the half.
I couldn't help but notice your moniker. Can I now say I know Diddle E. Squat?
