Shoe running on the pitch...but he has to retreat as Rolen flies out to Hidalgo in left.

Ankiel hits one to center...Hunter Pence, freshly in, lays up on it and plays it off the bounce.

1st and 2nd, 1 out.

Wilson Ks again, 2 down.

A quick recap of the subs:

Hunter Pence in CF, Josh Anderson in RF, Louis Santangelo in at C, Eric Munson moves to 3rd, Miguel Asencio pitching for Houston.

Bennett in for Molina for St. Louis.

Asencio and Bennett have a good battle, but Asencio wins it as Bennett flies out to center.

Heading to the 7th, it's still 2-0.

Hidalgo hits a loper to third, Spiezio gets it and Bozied makes a nice pick at first to record the first out.

Kinney tries to pickoff pinch runner Cody Ransom from 1st, but he and Bozied aren't on the same page, Ransom goes to 2nd.

Munson hits a bounding ball to Miles at second, who tosses it to first for the 2nd out. Ransom up to 3rd.

Mike Rodriguez hits a deep one to right field...Schumaker drifts back and...gets an eyeful of a homer that just clears the wall.

4-0 Astros.
