Last nights game - Just amazing

Nothing of substance here really.  Just a combination of frustration and clearing my head.

As someone who was at the game I gotta say i couldnt believe what i was watching from the bottom of the 7th to the bottom of the 9th.  Just amazing.  Glaus bobbles a ball and then Lohse who has dominated the whole game serves up a homer to a guy i'd never heard of!!!  Just amazing.  This season has been filled with more of those types of moments then i can ever remember.  Situations that just shouldnt happen so often.  Horribly timed goffer balls WITH 2 OUTS!.  Terribly timed fielding errors WITH 2 OUTS! 

Then we hit into double plays in the next 2 innings.  Ludwicks was a sure hit up the middle when he hit it I thought.  Pitcher was falling off the mound and it was hit behind him.  How he stopped his momentum and reached back for it i couldnt believe.  Just amazing.

Then watching Berkman hit back to back balls for homers (first was foul but plenty deep).  Just amazing.

I was sure we were going to win.  Lohse cruising with a 2-0 lead and bases empty with 7 outs to go.  Then bobble and homer in a space of a minute.  Just amazing.....how bad our timing on stuff like that has been this season.

This is why I dislike the Astros

We lose games that we shouldn’t to them.

Prospects are good. Especially when they aren't rushed.

you can say the same thing about the pirates

they beat us when we should beat them. then, they bend over vs our closest competition.

kind of ironic

that after posting a vapid, waste-of-time FanPost like this, you would criticize houstoncardinal’s post today for being “unoriginal.”

maybe he thought I was talking about him

but I hadn’t read this until about 16 hours after posting today’s thread. I wasn’t talking about you, gossard, or anyone in particular. Sorry if I offended.

Yes but i led of by saying "nothing of substance here"

i knew i was just blowing of steam. HC said he was writing something original.

Milt Thompson FTW!
