Now playing: The Cranberries - Ridiculous Thoughts (4:31)

What a terrible series for the Astros, particularly for Morgan Ensberg, who arguably had more opportunities to change the tone of the series than any of the other offensive players on his time, and failed to come up big nearly every time.

But still, kudos needs to be given to the White Sox. They had the clutch hitting that we didn't and, with the exception of Game 2, a remarkable bullpen that made Brad Lidge look like a AA player.

How 'Bout Them Astros?
Posted: 6:38:00 PM 0 comments

Can you believe it? Down 6-1 in the 8th, two swings of the bat tie it up 6-6 with two outs in the bottom of the ninth, and then the game goes... well, another game. Roger Clemens relieving in the 16th? Burke with the game winning homer in the 18th? Just about the best game I've ever watched. I only wanted to see how it was going to end. Wound up spending half the afternoon doing so.

Now let's get them red birds!
