Votto lines a two out single to RF. Hopefully it's not overturned or ruled an error.
Okay George how was the video feed of Votto's home run last night not conclusive? You see it hit the top of the yellow line on the fence.
It was a home run George. Watch the video.
No score after a half inning.
Not a good start for Ramirez. Matsui singles and steals 2nd and then Ramirez walks the light hitting Bourn.
Chat is open!
Tejada grounds into a doubleplay. Nice. Two outs now.
Berkman homers. 2-0 Astros. With two outs and a runner on third base and Blum on deck, why in the world do you pitch to Berkman there? Blum is awful. Walk Berkman and face Blum.
2-0 Astros after one inning.
Tough inning for Ramon. Both Bourn and Blum fouled off a number of good pitches before drawing walks. Makes me wonder about his stuff though if he can't get swings and misses.
Games are won on run differential -- scoring more than your opponent. Runs are runs, scored or prevented they all count the same. Worry about scoring more and allowing fewer, not which positions contribute to which side of the equation or how "consistent" you are at your current level of performance.
Back to back two out singles by Patterson and Janish. Ramirez is up.
Ramirez K's. 2-0 Astros after 1 1/2.
