Ty Cobb

GAME 2 tonight at 9:10.  Pitching match up: Yu Darvish (TEX) Hisashi Iwakuma (sea)

The RANGERS take game 1, 4-3.

I do not miss them and ,not being on TV, will not hurt their fan base.  It will actually help their fan base.  Understand, the astros are in a complete rebuilding period.  They are going to be bad for some time to come.  By not being on TV, the astros fans will not have to watch bad baseball.  Then, in about 5 years, the astros will start competing again.  When this happens the TV contracts will return and all of the so-called astro fans can come back and say, "I've been an astros fan for ever.  Even when they sucked!!!"
