Hopefully the Ags can overcome the inning from Hades.

Whoever wins the NC, LSU could have beaten them.  ::)

Texas wins 5-1 forcing game 3. Hook 'Em

AJ 25, I realize that Pence is not a 30 HR or 100 RBI man, but he is a solid player who gives his all on every play and at bat. On a routine ground out, he is running full speed to first base, forcing the infielder to scoop and throw. I wonder how many times Berkman could have been safe at first had he hustled down the line. If we trade Pence, why do we think we can get two players in return if Pence is not that good. Plus, a trade for prospects is always a crap shoot. Diamonds in the rough are too few and far between. The only way to bring in great players, if not up through the farm system, is to pay them dearly (the Yankees come to mind, and look what Clemens did for the Stros). Carlos Lee attracts the hispanic crowd, of which Houston has a sizeable one.

Looks like no trouble brewing in Austin.  ;) Hook 'Em!

Televised?

Pence was rumored to be traded before and I e-mailed the Astros and threatened to never buy another ticket or watch them on tv ever again. The trade rumors stopped so I guess I need to contact them again.  ;D

That will officially do end my being an Astros fan.

Lyles goes to his mouth on the mound. They don't call that? Barmes makes another great play at ss.

Carlos Lee, what an athlete! Let that ball drop in for a double without diving. Zambrano, what a putz.

[quote name="king" post="1015279" timestamp="1306792424"] 15 Game winning streak starts now! ! [/quote] Someone is very optimistic. I just like baseball. Maybe it's because it is less of a letdown than football if we lose.

Stros win 12-7.

Barmes is a good SS. Moving to his left and back-handing the ball to second for the force out ends the 8th inning for the Cubs.

Double play is an inning killer.

Went outside and enjoyed a margarita and missed what made it 8-6. Came back in and saw the error in left field making it 9-6. Go Stros!

Towles launches a solo HR making it 7-6 Stros!

Triple by Bourn, and back-to-back homers by Barmes and Pence ties it up 6-6 in the top of the 5th.

Great play Towles..... ::)

Thanks oldollie and Coog. It was not my intention to take anything away from the Ags, just trying to understand why winning all but one series all year long does not make a team the "champ". It does in high school and the pros. Like I said, gotta be some money involved.

Good job Ags, but I don't believe in conference championship tourneys for any sport. If two teams end up with identical records after the regular season, then head-to-head should determine the champ. It's got to be about money. Texas won every conference and non-conference series except for OK state. If the situations were reversed, then the Ags should have the same gripe as me.

[quote name="beechnut" post="1014944" timestamp="1306630841"] Out. @ the ballgame and getting blown out 6-0. Carlos is a lazy piece of crap and a joke to MLB. [/quote] Even when we lose, I enjoy the trip to the park. Agree on the Lee comment. King, could we get anything for Lee?

Two teams ranked in the top ten (ok, Ags are 11), should share a title. Great season so far for both. Hook 'Em!
