It's the rubber game of the series against the Cubs and their ace Carlos Zambrano who freakin' owns the Astros and down 3-0, the 'Stros manage to get runners on 2nd & 3rd with none out thanks to a walk, hit and wild pitch. Sadly Brad Ausmus, Adam Everett & Willy Tavares were due up. Ausmus and Everett combined to swing at exactly 1 of the 9 pitches they saw and they each struck out looking. At least Willy grounded out weakly. How can Ausmus & Everett, who have 18 years combined MLB experience, explain their intentions. How the F**K is a run going to score if you stand there with your bat on your shoulder. Is that what Gary Gaetti told them to do?? How 'bout Sean Berry?? Their ineptitude is magnified b/c of their stupidity. That's the second time in this series that Aubrey Huff has reached 3rd base with NO OUTS and has even sniffed home plate. I believe that runs the count to 0-8 with a runner on third in the series. Pathetic.(2:45 pm)
* And another thing why does Phil hate Dave Borkowski? He throws Wandy out there the first chance he gets and only uses Borkowski when he things the game is lost already. All DB does is throw strikes!! 33k, 10 BB in 37 innings - is something wrong with that?? (3:10 pm)
* PINCH -HIT for AUSMUS for crying out loud - 2 on, one out !!!!!(3:15 pm) Update-Ausmus strikes out looking - again!!!!!!!! (after Munson followed with a K, the count is up to 0-10 in the series with a runner on 3rd)
* Borkowski continues to make it look easy. 6 up, 6 down, 2 K, 22 pitches. And from the do you believe it department, after Garner pinch-hit for Everett, he actually moved Chris Burke to SS (and Lamb to 2B). (3:28pm)
