I am not feeling good about the end of this game. I am glad lee is out of the game though

[Ennder]

Free out when the RP can't throw strikes, I'll take it. Especially with a gimpy Berkman at 2B.

[logan82]

I always forget that the Astros have one of the Mythbusters on their training staff.

[hurricanecrush]

I would have walked Tejada.

 

Edit: Shows what I know.

[brewdude15]

2 down, 1 to go...lets go Villy.

[sheethead]

One more Villy... great game regardless

[sheethead]

BA: "another breaking ball, pence lays off, kendall blocks it." Great PBP, now shut up!

[brewdude15]

Why Prince, why?

[adamb100]

extra innings inc.

[trwi7]

Just ridiculously awful defense in this game. Pathetic throw by Hall and pathetic pick by Prince.

[hurricanecrush]

Ugh... Bad throw but Fielder has to make that play.

[billyhallfan]

that was awful, bad throw, but fielder should of had it.

[GormanHarvey]

Obviously a bad throw by Hall and a terrible time for his first error, but Prince has got to find a way to keep that ball in front of him

[trwi7]

Nice defense Kendall. The only reason you actually play and you suck at it.

[GormanHarvey]

That could be a huge PB

[hurricanecrush]

Are you kidding me? Fitting if we lose on a bloop single right now... it's been that kind of night.

[T B0NE 10]

I have a bad feeling about this intentional walk and facing this Towles.

[trwi7]

Are you serious Macha? We're intentionally walking a player on a 2-2 count?

[brewdude15]

what the heck!? Two strikes and you're going for the DP? oh jeez...i can see this one going the other way real quick...

[GormanHarvey]

what the heck!? Two strikes and you're going for the DP? oh jeez...i can see this one going the other way real quick...

Already 2 outs

[T B0NE 10]

All it would take is one pitch on a 2-2 count...I dont get it

 

And I think Towles is a more dangerous batter.

[sheethead]

Macha needs Villy to finish this inning, there is only one serviceable reliever left in the bullpen.

[Gobias Industries]

My god, I'm not defending that toss from Billy, but that was about as routine as a pick as you can get.

 

J.R. Towles with a swing that would make Ben Sheets blush. And Villa gets behind 3 -1

[brewdude15]

what the heck!? Two strikes and you're going for the DP? oh jeez...i can see this one going the other way real quick...

Already 2 outs

good point, forgot about that, but still. He had 2 strikes...why intentionally walk Blum?

[GormanHarvey]

Phewww!
