Rocketing By the Cubs

The Houston Astros have defeated the Cardinals 6-4 to move ahead of the Chicago Cubs and into a temporary tie with the San Francisco Giants for NL Wild Card. Bagwell had three hits and two RBI to lead the offense.

Houston was 44-44 when Jimy Williams was fired. They are now 45-26 since Phil Garner took over. This may be the 2nd season in a row where the NL manager of the year is a mid-season replacement.

I'm an Astros fan, but I have to say I hope this is not the case - Bobby Cox deserves the MOY award far more than Garner.
