    Please keep this to talk about the series. As usual no Play-by-Play, or general Astros talk. If you need play by play see one of the many other sites that have game casts.

    9-9 Ted Lilly, LHP vs. Bud Norris, RHP 7:05 on FSH

    9-10 Hiroki Kuroda, RHP vs. J.A. Happ, LHP 7:05 on FSH

    9-11 John Ely, RHP vs. Wandy Rodriguez, LHP 6:05 on My20

    9-12 Vicente Padilla, RHP vs. Nelson Figueroa, RHP 1:05 on FSH

    Since the break we are 30-20, the Dodgers are 20-32...3 out of 4 for the good guys.

    Astros have been a HOT team...like they typically are this time of the year.

    I expect another series win.

    Lilly has owned us and Padilla isn't to bad either.

    The realistic me thinks were gonna split the series, the somewhat optimistic choice is we take 3/4

    LWWW

    Lilly destroys us and Norris has been shaky his last few outings -- not a good recipe for a win.

    Kuroda and Happ have been good lately, but the Astros have had a little something extra.

    They called Ely back up? Whatever, Wandy's been dominant.

    Padilla/Figueroa's the toughest to call. Again, since the Astros have been streaking, I'll give them a bump.

    The Stros have been wonderful of late. They may win 3, but my gut says a split.

    I'll agree with this. I think Bud will pitch well enough tonight, but lose. I would probably expect a split.

    CJ with another error (14 now) leads to a man on base for Ethier's jack.

    He's actually approaching the league lead for 3B despite not even having played enough games to be qualified for the stat.

    I'm actually a Dodgers fan, but I love Chris Johnson and it was great to see him get that home run (considering the Dodgers are all but out of it anyway).

    A thing of beauty.

    I love how he didn't even need to look up after making contact. It was like he was exaggerating the importance of keeping your eye on the ball.
