MLB Week 7

[kah]

I'm sorry. I don't have the time to do all the pitching matchups for the week. But here's your GDT.

How about that Asdrubal Cabrera, hm? And his teammate, Cliff Lee? 0.67 ERA? Cliff fucking Lee?

And how about that Lance Berkman, on a freaking tear at the plate for the ages...

[kah]

Ryan Howard still far beneath the Mendoza Line.

[JWB]

Someone needs to teach Frank Thomas how to slide.

[Sheriff Blaylock]

So far not so good for the Astros.

Two on/two out in the first and Carlos Lee flies out to the warning track in dead center after an IBB to Berkman.

Bottom of the first some two solid hits, a blooper and bad defense lead to 3 runs for the Giants.

Top of the second umpire blows a call at first that goes in favor of the Giants, not even close. Of course the next guy gets a hit.

[kah]

Tampa Bay's in first place in the AL East. And just a couple of days ago they hit five games over .500 in a season for the first time in 11 years of play.

Cain doesn't have it tonight, but so far he's managed to fight his way through 3 tough innings.

3-1 Giants. Top o' the 4th coming up.

[Glovey]

Ryan Howard still far beneath the Mendoza Line.

As is Robinson Cano, which is much more surprising.

Well he does have a homer now.

Astros have been winning a lot and getting the breaks. This feels like a worm has turned game with the Vizquel blooper, the homer by the pitcher, the passed ball, etc. I could see the Astros getting 12 hits and only 2 runs.

THAT's the Lance Berkman I know and love...swinging and missing at strike three.

And that's the Carlos Lee I don't like so much - homering to cut the lead to two.

[Blues Fan in TX]

Siddown bitch.

8 innings for Cain. Very nice. He's at 114 pitches now, so I have to assume he's done. Hopefully Wilson won't fuck this up...

[Blues Fan in TX]

Oh damn. Pence and Matsui slam into each other going after a pop up. Doesn't look good for either of them.

[Sheriff Blaylock]

That damn sloppy first inning is going to bite Houston in the ass. If Bourn is going to bat less than .200 he needs to make better plays. I shouldn't knock on the guy because he defense had been outstanding but I am.

Cain was still chunking in the mid 90s after 100 pitches.

Yeah he seemed to be laboring early on but he really got on a roll after the 4th inning or so. Strong game by him.

Looking forward to seeing Lincecum go tomorrow - that guy is definitely fun to watch.

1 pitch, 1 out.
