Well, at least the Yankees lost, too, 4-3, with Randy Johnson starting.
Wow, that sucked. Red Sox game: Suck to the tune of 7-1. Tigers game: Double suck, even though 5-3 is a less embarrassing score. Jeremy Bonderman just broke my poor heart.
First, he made this really terrible, girly flip to first that Dmitri couldn't handle and let D-Lowe on, and he did the Hat Removal of Wow I Feel Stupid. And then you could tell it threw him all off, because he started throwing a billion balls and then when he gave up a three-run homer (to Jeff Kent, by the way, an ex-Astro), he just screamed. I mean just stood there on the mound and screamed. Then after he got out of that inning, they showed him talking to Tram and chucking his drink (Bondo's, not Tram's), then there was a kind of cute shot of him sitting there pissed and Rondell going over to give him a little pat. Man, I just felt so bad watching it all. I want to give him a hug the worst way.
Bah.
To be fair, though, Derek Lowe had a great game and definitely earned the win. So good for him. Heh, as of tonight he and Teh Unit have the same record: 5-5.
Also, I think I changed my mind about the announcer, whoever it was. Once I got used to his grating voice, I noticed that he was saying actual interesting things and also saying way fewer moronic things than I am used to hearing. Plus, he was going on about Nook and his superspeed, and when Nook's hit was messed up by a fan touching the ball, the guy scolds the fan for "thinking he's more important than the game" and robbing us of "the chance to see Nook Logan run." Praising my boys earns you lots of points.
