    Have you tried starting the stream at least 30 minutes before the game? It works with the NBA games

    If he does, this will go down as one of the dumber managerial moves Gar has made.

    BUNT!

    eh, bunting didn't work the past few innings.

    not bunting has worked so far this inning.

    EDIT: That pitch was close.

    We have yet to get a runner to 3rd w/ less than 2 outs. We have that opportunity here. I take it every time.

    WOW... Stros caught a break... that was strike 3 looking.

    That's the same ump who was patrolling 1B last night... not a good series for him.

    It doesn't make much sense... if 2 men on and nobody out is automatically a bunt situation from the 7th inning on (in a close game, provided that your big slugger isn't up to bat)... you would assume it would be the right call in a 14 inning game when you're down to your last players/pitchers.


    EDIT: Backe would have had the sac fly right there.... FREAKING EH!!!

    Sounds like Backe almost came through. :( Clemens is probably the best offensive option off the bench.
