    Big out as Schafer strikes out swinging after failing to get a bunt down. 5 Ks for Leake

    Except that when he moves to lead off, he stops hitting.

    Solution: Cross out the number one on the lineup card. Substitute 2A and 2B.
    Then hit Stubbs and Cozart in any order Dusty wants.
    Or clone Votto and let him hit behind multiple players.

    So of course he is leading off again.
    The #2 hitter has been hitting, for the most of the season, in front of the best hitter in baseball. Gotta figure that counts for something.

    You know it's a rough night when you see Bill Bray throw a baseball on camera.

    Is it just gameday, or is Leake getting squeezed here?

    Good job by Leake as Martinez grounds out back to Leake. 2-1 Astros after 7.

    Tie this thing up and turn it into a battle of the pens.
