We are all trying to get used to this kind of baseball. For so many years, it has always been about pitching around here but not this season. I'm not saying the arms aren't there, but I am saying, it's just a matter of time before this offense explodes. It's really fun to watch what is happening and that is the foundation of this friends excitement.

The other night, just watching the game with the Brewers, a well pitch game turned into an offensive circus. If you were sitting in the stands eating popcorn and drinking a cold beverage of your choice, all of a sudden, out of nowhere, this club has the ability to hit the long ball. First it was Tejada, then Berkman and finished off by Lee. Back to back to back homeruns and the Brewers were wobbly. Add to that a couple of Hunter Pence blasts and it was over.

It doesn't get more enjoyable than that. The Astros may not win a World Series title playing this way but if you just want to have fun, head to the ballpark. You just never know when the fireworks are going to go off and it doesn't need to be a Friday night!
