Anyone still watching baseball?
Any chance of Houston choaking really badly, as the Phils tend to do about this time of year?

Anyone see the game with the Marlins where it was Marlins 2 Phils 0 in the top of the ninth, and by the end of nine innings, the score was Marlins 2 Phils 10? Most amazing inning of baseball I've ever seen.

2. I'm a 'Stros fan, but I do predict a choke.
That's how it always goes them. Although, I am keeping my fingers crossed.

4. I'm a Phillies fan
but I love the Astros' top three starters - I think that gives them an edge.

5. I'm a
Braves fan and it's getting pretty close to their annual choke, as well.

9. I liked
Murph, though. Sat right behind him in the outfield one time.

8. Not really watching but I am waiting for the annual Philly nosedive.
I refuse to become a full time fan again until they get rid of idiot Ed Wade.

10. Other than poor decisions, what is it about him that's so annoying
Rhetorical question.

I see Palanco's hitting.333 at his new home.

Well, at least he hasn't traded Utely, yet...

12. Always!
I'm a Red Sox fan. I'll watch regardless of the situation.

And I hope I'm still watching for another month. :)
