Game 1, Att: 48,905
The stros left it late but they fought back to win it in extra innings and send us to 0-5 in extra innings games. The game started with us eeking out a lead and all looked good until the 8th inning when Rodriguez got an infield hit, when he really should have been out, then later in the innings Padila threw to 3rd to try and pickoff Sutton the ball went past Young and Sutton scored to tie the game up. Then in the marathon of extra innings Smith hit his 3rd home run of the year to score the winning runs. We hit 2 home runs in the game Murphy hit his 5th of the year in the 2nd and Saltalamacchia his 4th of the year in the 6th.
Game 2, Att: 48,992
The heart certainly started beating a little faster in the top of the 9th as Houston came storming back to cut the lead down to 1 run, in a game they should've never been allowed to get back into. Francisco came in and held his nerve to get the 2 final outs. There were 7 home runs in the game, Teagarden hit his 5th of the year in the 2nd with 1 on, Blalock goy his 7th of the year in the 4th and Andrus his 2nd in the 5th, for the Astros Berkamn hit his 8th in the 3rd, Bogusevic his 1st career home run in the 6th, then in the 9th Anderson with is 1st with 1 on and Lee with his 9th and 1 on.
Game 3, Att: 48,993
Who will be the best team in Texas as the series stood at 3-2 to us. The way they came out of the blocks it looked like they'd tie it at 3, but their fire was soon put out and we grinded our way to victory. Andruw Jones hit 2 home runs to take his tally to 7, his 1st came in the 3rd with 1 on and his 2nd in the 5th, Murphy hit his 6th of the year in the 4th for the Astros Smith hit his 4th of the year in the 2nd with 1 on.
