Put a Lidge On It
Andy Pettitte pitches eight one-run innings, his only mistake being a home run ball to Miguel Cabrera. Brad Lidge comes in to strike out the side in the 9th, giving him 92 strikeouts in 60 2/3 innings, 13.2 per nine innings. Wow. The Astros retake the Wild Card lead by 1/2 a game over the Phillies and Marlins and 2 1/2 over the Nationals. Houston is done with the NL East.
The Astros now host Milwaukee for three. This is the Brewers big chance to advance in this race. They are 5-7 vs. the Astros so far this season.
