Tejada smacks a homer, 3-2 Phils lead
O leaves one hanging, but Pence makes a diving catch to save him.
Berkman leads off the 6th with a standing double.
thanks for the updates, entropic

The boxscore updates so slow, its hard to keep up

np

while i’m at my computer anyway

Carlos Lee Strikes out swinging.

:(

Tejada up.

Tejada lines one over first

Down the right field line.. Berkman scores.

3-3 Tie now.

Pence grounds one to short

But Pence beats the throw and is safe.

Brett Myers is being pulled.

Pence seems to do that with great frequency

a combination of getting out of the box well, hustle, and the fielders underestimating his speed, i’d imagine…

good Myers

the wife beater gets pulled

Blum knocks one into right-center

Swung on the first pitch from the new pitcher. hahaah
Tejada scores, Pence to score.
4-3 Astros

Bourn grounds into a double play

blah.

Team USA pitching...

Hawkins replaces Oswalt.

Radio says Towles was sent down.

That makes Q the back up.

well

i dont like Q, but Towles needs to get consistent ABs..

Phillies 7th

2 ground ball outs for far.

Ground ball to Tejada

Tejada has to hurry the throw and it’s a little off, so Berkman shows off his “mad sc00ping skillz” by reaching out and catching the ball while keeping his foot on the bag.

Michaels pinch hits for Hawkins

Lines out to 2nd.

Matsui gets his 3rd hit of the day.

He has now gotten 1/3 of his spring training hits today.
Then Matsui gets caught stealing almost immediately.

Strike out..

I think it was Chris Johnson batting..?

Should have been Pudge.. but don't recall hearing his name..

But I was distracted so could be wrong

i think he's

number 65 or something like that…

the more i see him, the more i think we need to just let Blum go as long as he can..although a platoon mate would be nice

Sampson pitching now.

Johnson at 3rd. Smith at short. Michaels in left. Blum at 1st. Q is catching.

thanks..

for the updates….
Astros seem to be getting into season form….Tejeda seems like the pressure is off and he is ready to start that salary drive season….:)

And Matsui hasn't been hurt!!
Meeting now.

Done with updates for now.

Astros lead 6-3 heading into the 9th
Pence collects a pair of RBI

6-3

Sampson gives up a pair of runs in the ninth

but the Astros hold on for a 6-5 victory…seven in a row!

YES!!!!!!!!!!!

Way to go ’STROS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The mysterious Pudge factor...

keeps the win streak going. :)
