Well Done Gentlemen

Sunday's come-from-behind win by the Houston Astros over the St. Louis Cardinals continues to show that this club deserves respect. Sports commentators on the national level seem amazed that the boys from Space City USA have gotten this far in the play-offs. The truth be known, most Houstonians felt the same way given the team's record around the All-Star break. But, the times . . . they are a changin'. Granted, the press and many baseball gurus have dubbed Carlos Beltran the Golden Child of the series, but they tend to forget the other twentysomething men on the bench who continue to contribute to the cause inning after inning. This team has come together with a common purpose, and the City of Houston is their 10th man on the field. We're all in this together, win or lose. Well done gentlemen . . .
