    Not to be a whiner but there were two different strike zones last night, a very LARGE one for Mr. Maddux and a very small one for Andy Pettitte.

    That still doesn't excuse the fact that the Astros need to score more runs......

    Pettitte also made some BAD pitches at the worst times which is out of the ordinary for him.

    Let us gather here today to say goodbye to the Houston Astros for 2005.

    They made a nice mini-run, but now have dropped to second in the wild card race, allowing about five teams to get within two or so games.

    Hey, 2006 is just around the corner!

    LMAO!! Houston has the inside track in the Wild Card race, all the NL East teams have to play EACH other from here on out and beat each other up and all we have to do is play the LOSER teams in the NL Central. The Astros should win the Wild Card.

    You Cardinals fans catch the final score in the 13 inning game tonight? If you did please post it, I'm going to bed and it's the top of the 13th and the Cardinals just went up by one.

    You're right superman, that is a BIG problem. I still think they can get to the playoffs BUT their lack of run scoring probably won't get them past Atlanta and certainlly not past the Cardinals.

    Where are the Cardinals fans? I wanted to know if any of them caught the final score. I mean GEEZ, they HAD to have won, you know with that great bullpen they have, Isringhausen, Tavarez, King, Reyes. If they kept records on how many times one pitcher can blow saves in a game ALL BY HIMSELF, the Cardinals would have set it tonight. Did Tavarez punch a water cooler again?

    I'm a poor soul in Connecticut who cannot watch Astros games.....................
