Afternoon game

It's getaway day in Houston as the Bucs and Astros are playing at 2:05 this afternoon with Ian Snell and Brian Moehler taking the mound. The Pirates have had an impressive ability to kick the crap out of the Astros this year, so hopefully they can continue that into this afternoon. This is Snell's fourth start since coming off of the disabled list and he hasn't really been all that impressive in any of them. If he's going to start turning the corner and earning the right to be insulted by me every fifth day, it's going to have to happen sooner rather than later. But hey, at least we'll all have something to do at work this afternoon.
