So much for the mere mention of Pudge injecting life into the Astros bats

Bogusevic, Michaels and Bourn each got a hit in 11 innings as the Astros apparently think they're playing soccer, and thus get a point for a tie.

Eight Astros played today with batting averages under .200:
Matsui (.054), Santangelo (.143), Bourn (.186), Lee (.050), Blum (.069), Quintero (.167), Michaels (.190), Mayonset (.182)

For the pitchers:
Moehler (impressively): 5IP, 4H, 0ER, 1BB, 3K
Sampson: 1IP, 1BB
Norris: 1IP, 1BB, 2K
de la Vara: 1IP, 1H, 1ER
Fulchino: 2IP, 1H, 1BB, 1K
Paronto: 1IP, 1H, 2K

Bourn stole two bases, making that six, and Pence stole his 2nd SB of the Spring. Maysonet had the lone Astros error.
