Keeping Andy
Carpenter may have kept Pettitte in the game as he retires the 6-7-8 hitters in order in the sixth. We'll know in a minute.
Update: Pettitte stays in, and a high throw by Everett allows Eckstein to reach base leading off an inning again.
Update: Eckstein gets caught stealing on a pickoff. There's only so many times you can steal successfully on Andy Pettitte.
Update: An Edmonds foul pop hits a beam, and it's a dead ball. On the next pitch, Jim beats out an infield grounder when Lamb's foot comes off the bag. Qualls comes in to relieve Pettitte.
Update: Pujols grounds out to third. If the Cardinals win this game, it won't be with much help from Albert.
Update: Sanders rolls out to third. A busy inning for Ensberg. Cardinals still lead 2-1 in the middle of the 7th.
The Astros have chosen a bad time to start playing sloppy infield defense.
that was a typical andy pettitte half balk that he never gets called on
