The Astros game last night, and their series thus far with the Rangers, is their reply to the eternal question, posed by the immortal poet Ludacris, “How Low Can You Go?” (warning: explicit lyrics, I think)
Lower than the Rangers apparently, a depth once thought unplumbable.
The Astros have lost the last two games to the Rangers by a combined score of 18-5. The Rangers, “who are proof that even the failure is bigger in Texas,” who came to Minute Maid having lost 8 of their last 9, 11 of their last 13, 16 of their last 20 games.
