Did Biggio and Bagwell give a post season hitting clinic before this series? The complete disappearance of the bats, even in the wins, is almost unbelievable.

---

Believe me when I say, we can only get better.

---

Yeah, but it may well be next season before that happens.

Yes, we're bound to better at home, but the last three games have included some uncharacteristic mistakes and brain-farts.

Looking at the dugout today, you'd think they showed up for a funeral instead of a game.

Thought we called a truce

No hitting

Lousy coaching

We're done

We might win Game 6 but there's no energy in this team now.

---

That's the spirit. The last time you were talking like this they went on a winning streak. Maybe a little home cooking will wake up the bats enough to force a game seven. We'll see. Yesterday's was the game they needed to win.

^^ This ^^

When I was optimistic, bad things happened.

Can't hurt to try something else.

Now I just need to get a chicken, a bottle of whiskey, and Jobu doll ...

See my response to DC. Time for a reverse jinx.

I went to church/confession this morning. I prayed for several things, but mostly I prayed to almighty God to bless this team. I prayed that the victims of Harvey and anyone effected by the horrid flooding can find some comfort knowing that win or lose, our teams stood up and provided relief efforts. I prayed that win or lose, that Houstonians be proud of what this team has accomplished so far. Our backs are against the wall, it's time to get back to form and start smashing. We handled Chris Sale, I know we can handle Liriano.

I have tickets to ALCS Game 7 - I plan on using them.

I now have tickets to World Series Houston Games 2 and 3 - I also plan on using them.

Go Astros!

How did you get the World Series ones? Did you win the lottery again? I went 0-fer, and wasn't able to get any at noon today.

Go Stros.

Lottery again. I went 3 for 3 this year and went 1 for 1 two years ago. I must have someone in the Astros ticket office looking out for me I guess. So far the Astros are 3 - 0 when I go to a playoff game. We need to win tomorrow so I can get to game 7.

Y'all are awfully quiet.

Yay.

Welcome to Game 7!!!

Six down, five to go.

Hell yeah! Ready to go lose my voice tomorrow night!

LET'S GOOOOO!

I can't wait. I'll be in Section 227, row 1 again, just like game 2. My father in law got the seats again, so I am very fortunate to be upgraded from the already good seats in 411. Where are you guys tomorrow? I'll keep an eye out for you.

This also means I will not be at the Baylor game tomorrow night, ending my streak of consecutive Baylor home football games attended at 36. The last one I missed was the RG3 to Terrance Williams winner over OU in 2011.

222. If we can all make it.

I'll be in Section 413.

Go, go, Astros! Here come the Astros burning with desire, here come the Astros, BREATHING ORANGE FIRE!

I'll be at Baylor vs. WVU, but I will be keeping an eye on the 'Stros game for sure.

Go 'Stros!

Old school. Favs were Jimmy Wynn & Rusty Staub.
Gooooooooo Astros

Lord almighty, hear our fervent prayer. Be with Charles Morton as he takes the hill. Give him the strength to fire the pellet with control and grace. Let our infield be clean in their playmaking. Lastly Lord, give our boys the strength to send Sabathia to the dugout. Hear our cries Lord.

In the name of the father, the son and the Holy Spirit. Amen.

God be with us

Evidently God cannot hit with two outs and men on base.
