Stumbling Out of the Gate!!!!!!

The off season moves made by the Houston Astros were intended to bolster the offense. The additions of Michael Bourn, Kaz Matsui, and Miguel Tejada should bode well for scoring some runs. But that was not in evidence on Opening Night in San Diego against the Padres and their ace, Jake Peavy. The 'Stros only had four hits, two by Tejada, and never advanced a base runner to third. The final score was 4-0.
