Random Astros facts:
* Morgan Ensberg hit his twenty-second homer today. He's third in the NL for homers now, tied with Carlos Lee. In comparison, the AL leader is Teixeira, also with twenty-two.
* Roger Clemens's ERA after today's game is 1.41. This just in: He is not human. Seriously. He is an android with metal parts in key places and those metal parts will keep him pitching under 2.00 when he's eighty.
* As of today, the Astros officially suck less than the Tigers. This is a confusing concept, because my perception of my teams all season has been: The Red Sox, who are in contention and thus my good team; the Tigers, who like to hover around .500 and are thus my mediocre team; and the Astros, who are lucky if they can see .500 on a clear day and are thus my crappy team. But now the Tigers are at 37-41, five games below .500, and the Astros are at 38-42, a mere four games below .500. I do not like having to shake up my mental map of my teams, but I wouldn't mind if maybe I stopped having a crappy team and had two mediocre ones instead. That would be cool.
