    No disrespect to Castor27, but I figure I'd give us a place to talk about tonights game instead of having so many threads appear about the same topic.

    All game talk goes in here. Please do not give play by play. If you need play by play go to CBS, ESPN, or Yahoo.



    Pitching Probables:

    9-27 Roy Oswalt (18-12, 2.91) vs. Matt Morris (14-9, 3.97) 7:10 on FSSW

    9-28 Brandon Backe (10-8, 4.59) vs. Chris Carpenter (21-5, 2.71) 7:10 on FSSW


    Roy is 4-4 against the Cards, Morris is 9-9 against the Stros.

    We must win all of the last 6 games. Our destiny is in our own hands.

    I'd gladly take all 6, but our magic number is 5.

    Just our luck, we have to go up against Carpenter in this short 2-game series. Would be great for Backe to come up with a gem.

    The Astros are...
    • 63-42 in games they score first
    • 66-32 when they hit atleast 1 homer
    • 19-39 when they don't hit a homer

    The trip from Chicago to St. Louis on Sunday was dubbed the "rookie road trip," during which the rookies on the club had to dress in women's clothing on the plane ride from one city to the next. :D

    Oswalt throws a solid game today with run support coming in the later innings

    Backe keeps us close, cures cancer and solves world hunger.... in addition to getting a W

    Yeah, but Oswalt hasn't been all that bad.

    Roy is 4-4 against the Cards, Morris is 9-9 against the Stros. So I have hope.

    indeed... we'll have to see

    the record won't mean much if we get at least a split (or "sweep") of the series
