September 30, 200421 yr Author Renteria is caught stealing, and on the next pitch, Matheny singles. Suppan will hit.
September 30, 200421 yr Author Going into the bottom of the seventh, 4-4 tie. Come on Astros, plate one. Plate one.
September 30, 200421 yr Author Leadoff walk for Orlando Palmiero. Willy Taveres will pinch run, a speedster called up from AA. Biggio is batting, Beltran on deck, Bagwell in the hole. Bottom of the seventh, no one out. Suppan pitching.
September 30, 200421 yr Why the hell was Suppan batting? He had less the 90 pitches thrown most likely why.
September 30, 200421 yr He had less the 90 pitches thrown most likely why. Alright, I'd just figured they would want to save him, and help their chances at driving in a run...
September 30, 200421 yr Author Beltran grounds out to first. Taveres moves over to third. Two out, runner on third. Bottom of the seventh, tied at four. Huge duck on the pond right here. Absolutely f***ing huge... Come on Bagwell...
September 30, 200421 yr Alright, I'd just figured they would want to save him, and help their chances at driving in a run... I would have pinch hit, but i have noticed that in the national league if you are tied or only done by one run in the seventh and the pitcher has a decent pitch count they will just the pitcher hit.
September 30, 200421 yr Author Looks like Suppan will walk Bagwell to get to Berkman. Nevermind, I guess not, as Bagwell smokes a ball into LF for a single. 5-4 ASTROS!@
September 30, 200421 yr Roger Cedeno is so bad in the outfield. Hey, I'll take it thought!!!! Do they go with Lidge for 2 innings here?
September 30, 200421 yr Author Very, VERY stupid pitching there by SUppan. It looked like they were going to unintentionally intententionally walk him. BERKMANN RIPS IT INTO THE LEFT CENTER GAP! BAGWELL IS SAFE! 6-4 ASTROS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
September 30, 200421 yr Author Wow... Kent rips it, off the glove of Rolen, right to Renteria. Score it 5-6-3. But the damage is done!
September 30, 200421 yr Roger Cedeno is so bad in the outfield. Hey, I'll take it thought!!!! Do they go with Lidge for 2 innings here? He is one of the worst everyday outfielders defensively if not the worst.
September 30, 200421 yr Author Dan Miceli is now pitching, and he strikes out the first guy he faces. The Cards are down to five out. Come on, Stros bullpen!
September 30, 200421 yr Author Miceli strikes out the side. Going into the bottom of the eighth, 6-4 Astros. I'd leave Miceli in there to close it out, give Lidge a day of rest unless Miceli gets into some trouble. In other news, San Fran scores two in the top of the first to take a 2-0 lead on the Padres...
September 30, 200421 yr I hope Lidge is coming in, you can't take your chance against this part of the Cards lineup.
