Ready for another pitching/hitting duel between my Redbirds and the Astros? I sure am. Next Wednesday, the 'birds take a two-game road trip to Houston, where the infamous three-run HR by Pujols took place, and other events. Rivalry never gets old, does it?

There will be fun match-ups for every fan, ranging from Backe vs. Edmonds to Pettite vs. Pujols. Could this be a split series or will one team take it all? Find out on May 3-4, 2006!
