yea, that was a heartbreaker.... The home plate umpire was shady about his strike zone... he kept giving houston strikes 6 inches off the plate.. I remember one case in extra innings where Chipper went down to a quick 0-2 count from 2 pitches that were easily balls on the "k-zone".
Houston got lucky to eek by in the 8th, barely scraping together infield hits to load the bases for the slam. But the braves still blew it (again) and refused to make something happen even when Houston was drawing thin on pitchers and had Berkman out of the game for alot of the extra innings.
I guess the bright side is the that we have some promising young guys. If bobby would fix the gd bullpen.....
I don't see how Houston is going to beat to St.L....
