Dammit! A Two Game Win Streak!

After the Astros rolled over for the Gnats, the Astros have embarrassed themselves for two games in a row.

First was choke game down the stretch with Lance Berkman knocking a walk off single two nights ago.

Then they refuse to lose and take a 5-1 win in the third game. I listened to the game at work and am perplexed with this sudden urge to win. Wandy Rodriguez tried to give up a lead but he had no help. He loaded up the bases but the Gnats still wouldn't take the bait. Even the umpire tried to help out with a probable phantom call on catcher interference. The Astros refused to lose though.

They will give it one more shot this afternoon against the Gnats. After that the Chicago Scrubbies come to town. I'm in a bit of a quandary. While I prefer the losing Astros, I despise the Cubs. This is the one series I'm rooting for the Astros to win every game.
