Baseball Tonight 9-27-06

Apparently TO is depressed over my struggles getting to 100 wins this season. Don't worry, buddy, things are going to be all right. I promise. Now who wants a lollipop!?


  • Pittsburgh Pirates (65-92 5th NL Central Shawn Chacon 7-6 6.25) vs. Houston Astros (79-78 2nd NL Central Jason Hirsh 3-4 5.83)- So the Astros are going to have to lose a game at some point. But not tonight. I just wonder how much longer before MLB finally sends the Astros a memo letting them know that the regular season starts in April. This is the third year in a row they're pulling this late season rally schtick. (7:05PM Est.)
  • St. Louis Cardinals (80-76 1st NL Central Anthony Reyes 5-7 4.92) vs. San Diego Padres (85-72 1st NL West Chris Young 11-5 3.55)-Will the Cardinals finally end their 7-game losing streak tonight? Will they summon the courage to pick themselves up off the canvas and fight on? Will Tony LaRussa take over 30 painkillers after the game if they don't? This isn't good for the Cardinals, cuz while the Astros are playing the Pirates, they're stuck playing a Padres team that is still trying to win its division, and isn't playing horrible baseball. I'm taking the Padres tonight as the city wide suicide watch in St. Louis gets even scarier tonight. (8:10PM Est.)
  • Colorado Rockies (74-83 4th NL West Aaron Cook 9-14 4.11) vs. Los Angeles Dodgers (83-74 2nd NL West Derek Lowe 15-8 3.57)-The Dodgers reclaimed the wild card lead last night by defeating the Rockies 11-4, while the Phillies lost yet again in Washington. Tonight they send Derek Lowe to the mound, who's seeking his seventh straight win. I think he gets it. (8:35PM Est.)

Yesterday: 1-2 (W-Twins L-Pirates Phillies)

Season: 92-87

I'll say this...your sports blog is one of the best blogs on the net so would it hurt you to include some Jai Alai?

Ever since I was 11 and had an unfortunate accident playing jai alai that consisted of synthetic testicles, tears, and a lot of pain I've made it a point to never mention the sport again. Until now. And now I cry.
