    It was difficult to not get choked up seeing Bags out there with Biggio. Two amazing guys. Congrats to BGO!

    Congrats Biggio. That was right up there with winning the pennant. I have to say I was pretty choked up seeing Biggio and Bagwell together on the field for one last time...

    The way he tied it at the end (basically... I know he was the tying run...)!

    He was down to the last strike... he got on!


    Bases got loaded w/2 outs...
    Carlos Lee for the Grand Slam walk-off to win it!


    a FIVE hit NIGHT for BGO!

    Congrats, 3000 baby!

    And a 5-6 night! What a way to do it! Too bad it wasn't a double. ;)

    Mr. Astro

    Hard to imagine the local 9 taking the field without you. What a unique, amazing career.

    I wish Bagwell had hit his 500th homer yesterday... I think that was supposed to happen, but someone screwed with the continuum and Biggio got his 3,000th hit instead.

    Jeff Bagwell and Frank Thomas were linked together...

    One stupid shoulder away from a 500 home run guy and a 3000 hit guy.

    But oh well.

    Only thing sweeter would have been for Bagwell to hit that grand slam for his 500th...bringing Biggio in for a run as he did so many times throughout his career. Couldn't script a better ending than that.

    Congratulations to Craig Biggio!

    I wasn't at the game last night, but I was watching on television and it was great to see him get hit #3,000.
