Bond issue led to a rebuild of the stadium in early 2010s.

Very nice facility. EC has utilized the site for playoff games on occasion despite it being a smaller classification school.

Astros don't strand a runner at 3rd with no outs. Nice job Smith.

Pecko's old man beats his son in the best mustache contest.

This is normally a recipe for disaster. The fact the Astros are above .500 is a definite anomaly in this situation.

Yeah, you bunch of illiterate fatherless children. What Uncle Spudey said!! Sorry, my inner Sam Kinison kicked in there for a moment. Carry on.

It is essentially a boarding school. So residence halls (dorms) do exist.

This is accurate even for College students. As a professor I have had 18-20 year olds break down in my office about being away from home because they didn't want their coaches or teammates to see it they come to me. 89Falcon is right on this one.

What a strange game. He was projected as a guy entering free agency this off season to be worth 100 million on a 4 year deal. Then this season was played....and now he may get a 1 year "prove it deal" at a much lower per season level. Can he find lightening in a bottle for a few weeks? Astros could sure use a hot bat from an unexpected source.

And I should proof read. Sorry for all the typos.

The ball hit in front of the plate and the 3rd based umpire judged that the ball passes over rhe bag thus making it a fair ball. Where it lands after passing the bag dies not matter. The following is the wording you would find in the MLB rule book. Batted balls that first contact the field between home plate and first or third base are considered fair if they subsequently bounce over or directly contact either base, or otherwise pass either base while in fair territory. Was pleased to see the score and highlights this morning!

Yuck, but it's a win, 2-1. Astros follow up last night's loss in which they had 5 hits (all singles) with 4 hits today although 2 were for extra bases. Quality pitching the past 2 days. Rangers play tonight and tomorrow. Could be tied come Friday. Go Angels!

The Astros need to be moved to an all east coast division, play only in the division and all road games. Does it make sense....well to me it does.

Truly agree with your last point. Give a squad 2 pitchers that are top 15 in the league and 2 quality relievers. Everything else on the squad can be slightly below average and you've got a chance if you can just get in the playoffs. This is of course not the Astros squad this season just a thought in general.

I don't think he go his foot on the bag until after the tag. Even the great ones make mistakes and him not sliding was simply very bad baseball. Tough loss to take today. Real tough loss!
