I have great aspirations for this series. I believe that our hitters are going to turn the corner on this horrible hitting and become simply piss poor hitters. I hope that gets us a win.

It got us one win. Myers got the win, that was nice. He deserves a break and so does Oswalt. This one surprised me. They got some clutch hits. Pence is starting to hit. It seems the hitting coach got him screwed up. That happens. Not everything works for everyone. Now we shall see if we can get another win.

We usually play good against the Cards, especially Bud Norris.

That would be good because he is probably getting the start tomorrow. Right now we are ahead 9-1. This must be depressing for the Cards. They were probably expecting to pad their lead in the league. It is nice to see our pitchers starting to get some run support. This pitching coach does a good job. Is he the same one we had last year?

I will be darned if we didn't win another one and score 9 runs in the process. If we keep hitting like this we won't be the lowest run producing team in the majors for long. Of course we won't keep scoring like this. Manzella still managed to go O for 4, and Quintero wasn't much better. Berkman had the kind of game Berkman has when he is hot. Let's hope he is.

We swept the series. And I thought we would be lucky to win one game. I think we are in trouble coming into this next series. This is San Francisco that got us started on this horrible year. They were originally who gave us the first glimpse of how bad this team was going to suck. But let us celebrate before we cry over the next series. Hurray! There it was my celebration. You folks are welcome to join in. Don't feel obliged however. I wouldn't want anyone to feel forced to cheer.

I'm sure the Cardinals are feeling good after being swept at home by the Astros. Well, let's congratulate them for doing something good. However, if they win in SF I'll be surprised, especially against Lincecum.

Well, i predeicted Bud Norris was going to do a good job against the Cards.
I like Bud a lot, i wish he can stay in the rotation pitching good, i just see him more as a closer as he only has 2 pitches.
Congratulaton on the Astros for sweeping the Cards.

You did indeed call your shot. You told us that Norris was always good against the cards, and that he was.
This group is maddning. They can look so good, and look so bad almost all at the same time.Berkman and Pence are all of a sudden hitting, and even Lee has shown signs of comming out of his funk.Of all our hitters, Lee has been the most consistent throughout his career, so he is certain to comeout of it.

This series sure seems like a long time ago right now. It seems like it was in another century.
