WHOA ASTROS.
Here is my recap of as much of the game as I managed to watch while also trying to watch the Red Sox.
Roger Clemens: *gives up three runs in the first inning*
Me: Aw, man, here we go again.
Astros Offense: Waitwaitwait. Remember all that stuff you said about hitting the ball? Watch this! *they score five runs in the first, including a two-run homer from Morgan Ensberg which is immediately followed by a solo shot from Jason Lane* Hey, that is fun!
Roger Clemens: *gives up another run in the second*
Me: Roger, if we lose this goddamn game the one time they give you some run support, I will kill myself just so I can HAUNT YOU FOR ETERNITY.
Astros Offense: Don't do that. You're our only fan in the state of Maine! We need you! Here, about this? *they score another run*
Mark Mulder: *sucks at life and is pulled in the fourth*
Roger Clemens: Wait a minute, did she say run support? *checks the scoreboard* Holy shit. *shuts the Cardinals down for the next three and a third innings*
Me: Oh, goody, the bullpen. This does not make me nervous in the least.
Astros Bullpen: Good, 'cause check this shit out. *shuts the Cards down for the rest of the game*
Cardinals Bullpen: Wait, guys! We're better than our starter, too! *shuts the Astros down*
Brad Lidge: Too little, too late. *closes down the ninth*
Astros: *win 6-4*
In other baseball news, let's just get the stupid out of the way: Tigers lose 6-2, in spite of only giving up two earned runs. Yay defense! =D Next up: Interleague against the Dodgers and Rockies. I have no clue about the Dodgers, but I suspect we can probably handle the Rockies. Tomorrow night: Bondo versus D-Lowe. Aw man.
Red Sox win 6-3! Kevin Millar also has decided that hitting the ball is fun! Keith Foulke turns in a beautiful ninth inning! Red Sox win the series! I am not rid of the Cardinals, for the Sox face them next in Interleague play! Aw, and they're travelling, so I bet Rents gets a big standing O from the Cards fans. That will be cool.
And the Yankees? Were ahead 2-0 for the first five innings and then managed to lose 9-3. That's really not the kind of cue you want to take from the Sox and the Tigers, guys. Next they go up against the Brewers, who actually have a worse record than they do. Of course, so do the Royals. And after that THE CARDINALS WTF I WILL NEVER EVER BE RID OF THEM.
Okay, what's up with all the sixes today? The Red Sox win with six runs scored. The Astros win with six runs scored. The Orioles win with six runs scored. And the Yankees lose with a six-run deficit. That's just creepy.

If you have any cash to spare and a good Internet connection, MLBTV is definitely worth the investment to be able to watch out-of-market games. Fifteen bucks a month, or if you have fifty extra dollars lying around, you can get the rest of the season.
(I think I need an Astros icon now. I've gone long enough.)
