Ok I have to give KUDO's to the MAN OF MEN ON THE PITCHING STAFF after that one tonight. Give me another pitcher that would have continue to pitch after being hit like that. GEE'S that was just WOW, who would have thought he would get back up and finish the game with the save, wasn't pretty tonight. He has become one of favorite players this year on the Astros. I bet he just double earned Berkmans respect with that performance. The rest of team will play hard for him, he showed a lot there

A lot of heart and COJONES.
Lidge would had NOT DONE the same, he would have lost that game.
I like Valverde, we are in need on only 1 more reliever and a starter, this team can go big, tonight Towles had 2 good at bats and wiggington is looking very good.

that is one of the main difference's between those two. Lidge would have lost the game without being hit

I looked for this about Valverde, two saves in two nights. He seems to get the job done when he gets the chance most times. It was a good game again and we beat the Red Sox which makes me happy. We did it without probably our better starters, if it is possible that we have any good ones.

I am very happy for 2 reasons, first, astros win, second with that win Rays are in first place and Sox second.

I am currently against any Boston team. Even though my brother is from Boston, they have won enough championships recently. Good old Moeller had a great game. That guy is a competitor. He is pretty bright too.

I have nothing against Celtics or Boston, I just don't like winners when my teams are losing. That is more the rule than the exception because my teams always seem to lose. The only consolation I have is that I am for Brazil in the world cup.

Vega started it by talking about the Celtics. If your going to ban me for talking about soccer, go ahead and get it over with. And if you ban me you have to ban Vega too. And James did it too! If you only ban me then I know its rooting for Brazil you are mad at and not talking about soccer. I would be fine rooting for USA but I have an old history with Brazilian soccer, so they are the one exception. Stomp Argentina!!! And have pity on Uruguay!!!
