Not that Pence is an ideal leadoff man most of his OBP is BA because he seldom walks, but his .350 OBP is still better than Biggio’s .287.And of course, we all have our Blue Star Hats happy 80th birthday Milo Hamilton.I’m so happy that Roy won that I’m not going to mention that we left a man on third with less than 2 outs twice or that 2 of the 4 hits Roy gave up wouldn’t have been hits with Everett at SS.Ah well, rubber game tomorrow afternoon Matt Albers vs Joel Piniero, RHPPineiro’s name is vaguely familiar to me replica Jaeger LeCoultre 256.84.02 watch checking him out he pitched for Seattle for years, was a fairly good starter in 02 3.24 ERA and 03 3.78 ERA, who saw his numbers rise and his victories fall over the subsequent years 4.76 ERA in 04, 5.62 in 05, and 6.36 both starting and relieving in 06.He then signed with the Red Sox as a FA reliever this year and didn’t do very well, as he was injured most of the time and ineffective the rest.
When to pull a pitcher?At the end of the 7th, Andy Pettitte had thrown 89 pitches and given up 3 runs, 2 of them from a 340 HR (if that) to Miguel Tejada.The Astros hitters, except for Lane and Berkman, had, well, sucked.6 walks, 4 hits and replica Blancpain Lotus 3300-4530-64B Ladie's watch! it's not that Chen was exactly Pedro Martinez out there.So after we had managed to eke out a single run after loading the bases with NO outs (thank you Adam Everett, for sure this was not shutout number, what, 12 -gAack, choke, gaGg) Andy went back out in the bottom of the eighth after all, he had had a quick 1,2,3, of the bottom of the lineup hitters.
But he HAD already been through the lineup 3 times and major league hitters do what is called “adjust” and pitchers get tired.So Bigbee singled (for the third time well, one single was really E-5) and Roberts lay down a nice sac bunt and there was Bigbie at second.Garner to the mound.Lesson I learned from Grady Little NEVER ask your pitcher replica Blancpain 6185.1127.55 Men's watch if he thinks he can get any more outs he always thinks he can (unless his name is Greg Maddux and then he tells the manager to take him out.)So Mora Ks, but then Tejada walks on 4 straight balls.Now we have 2 on 2 out and it's Sosa at the bat.So what do you do? Qualls is warm and ready.Me, I think that Andy can't locate, so I bring in Qualls.But Phil doesn't move.
