Oh my! I am so exhausted! If you didn't see the game or watch any of the highlights, the Astros defeated the Braves in 18 long innings. The game ended with a Chris Burke walk-off homerun! There were many other outstanding plays in the game on both the home team and the visitor team. There were 2 grand slams in the game, one for each team. Brad Ausmus tied the game in the bottom of the ninth with a solo homerun that barely cleared the yellow line in left field. Roger Clemens came in as a relief pitcher for only the the second time in his career. He pitched 3 outstanding innings to pick up the win. Every player on the Astros roster was utilized, with the exception of Pettitte and Roy Oswalt.
With the longest post season game in baseball history now over, i think i'm going to try and relieve my headache. Both heather and I have headaches from the rollercoaster emotions of the day. We're completely exhausted and we watched the game from the comfort of our couches...I can only imagine what it must've been like at the game!
Go Astros!!! It's time to take care of the St. Louis Cardinals. The Astros are now 4 wins away from the World Series. See you there....
