Said Rockeis manager Jim Tracy: “I wouldn’t have thought, with no disrespect meant, that it would have been done with the patched up lineup that we have. But we swung the bats today. We executed with runners at third.”
On the other side, Houston’s manager Brad Mills looked very disappointed with the big defeat, claiming that “we tried to stop the dike, and we couldn’t do it. It got away and we tried to come back, but we kept getting behind in the count and giving up chances to swing the bat a little bit. Something like this is never fun.”
