Astros Fan in Exile: Something Fishy in Houston
http://astrosfaninexile.blogspot.com/2014/07/game-103-marlins-2-astros-0-game-104.html
Monday, July 28, 2014. Something Fishy in Houston. GAME 103: Marlins 2, Astros 0. GAME 104: Marlins 7, Astros 3. GAME 105: Marlins 4, Astros 2. The Astros' homecoming against Florida was not quite welcoming - they were swept in the three game weekend series. I may have to dig a bit to find my something-to-like about a sweep at home, but I'll try. DUST EATERS COUNT: BACK DOWN TO 1! The Astros record is now 42-63 (.400). There's one team in either league that's worse - the Rangers (.390). A...I am a lifelo...

Astros Fan in Exile: October 2011
http://astrosfaninexile.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Sunday, October 9, 2011. What to do in the Astros Off Season - Part 1. The Astros were eliminated in August. Now the team I was cheering for in the playoffs (Phillies, for Pence and Roy O) are out. I don't really care about the outcome of the playoffs. And, given the remaining teams, the TV advertisers are probably less than celebratory also. The Yankees are so great for business. So what to do, now that Astros baseball is over but the hot stove hasn't started heating up? Astros Fan In Exile. Me with my ...

Astros Fan in Exile: Grandparent Camp
http://astrosfaninexile.blogspot.com/2014/07/grandparent-camp.html
Friday, July 25, 2014. GAME 97: White Sox 3, Astros 2. GAME 98: White Sox 4, Astros 3. GAME 99: Astros 11, White Sox 7. GAME 100: Astros 3, Athletics 2. GAME 101: Athletics 9, Astros 7. Athletics 13, Astros 1. I barely had time to catch any baseball games this past week, as my husband and I were in New Jersey running Grandparent Camp - spending long summer days doing activities of interest to 3-year old boys while their parents were busy with work and school. In other Astros news, mostly not good. Sp...

Astros Fan in Exile: May 2014
http://astrosfaninexile.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Wednesday, May 28, 2014. GAME 52: Astros 9, Royals 2. GAME 53: Astros 3, Royals 0. GAME 54: Astros 9, Royals 3. The Royals must have had a bad surprise when they saw how much the Astros have changed since their sweep in Houston last month. This time the Astros returned the favor in Kansas City, with their first sweep of the season! Admittedly, by the standings, we are still in the AL cellar, but with a 5 game winning streak, the Astros sure don't look like the worst team in baseball. And they aren't!

Astros Fan in Exile: April 2013
http://astrosfaninexile.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Wednesday, April 10, 2013. Okay, That's More Like It! Highlight of the game:. Low point of the game:. Brett Wallace struck out 4 times, giving him 17 Ks in 6 games, not an auspicious start. But it's still early days, and there's months and months to go. I don't expect this to be a playoff year, or even a winning season, it does have its moments. We're going out to dinner tonight, so I will have to sneak peeks at the last game of the series on my iPhone. Dare I hope for a series win? Astros Fan In Exile.

Astros Fan in Exile: The Jays are Blue
http://astrosfaninexile.blogspot.com/2014/08/the-jays-are-blue.html
Monday, August 4, 2014. The Jays are Blue. GAME 109: Blue Jays 6, Astros 5. GAME 110: Astros 3, Blue Jays 1. GAME 111: Astros 8, Blue Jays 2. GAME 112: Astros 6, Blue Jays 1. After the fun of winning a series from the A's, the Astros took on another strong playoff contender, the Toronto Blue Jays - and won again! In fact, like in the A's series, the Astros came pretty close to a sweep. Let's move on to better things! The rest of the series was much more fun. Here are a few highlights. Although Altuve "on...

Astros Fan in Exile: September 2011
http://astrosfaninexile.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 7, 2011. Coming Up: Two Losing Teams, Strasburg, and the Ten Year Anniversary of 9/11. The long awaited Astros trip to Washington to play the Nats is almost here! On Sunday I'll be sitting in the sixth row, ground level, behind first base. You can look for me during the televised game, wearing my Sunday red jersey with FAN IN EXILE. But since Fox Sports Houston (which sometimes shows Astros fans in the stands between plays) isn't broadcasting, I'm not likely to appear. You might have...

Astros Fan in Exile: March 2012
http://astrosfaninexile.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 4, 2012. So I got my first dose of Spring Training today. I watched the Astros beat up the Nats 10-2, winning a second game on the power of their . HOME RUNS? Hi to Carole and Mitch and my other Spring Training buds - wish I were down there too! Astros Fan In Exile. Links to this post. This morning I was just about to write my Goodbye, Astros. Blog I'd made my decision: Try to become a Nats fan, let the Astros go their merry way (to the AL! Astros Fan In Exile. Links to this post. I don't g...
