Lightening in the Late Innings

Monday night we in the Houston/Galveston area were preparing for the arrival of Tropical Storm Edouard. At the same time the Astros and Cubs were playing a game in much worse weather than we saw when the tropical storm arrived! There was a 2 and a half hour rain delay that came in the sixth inning. Then in the eighth, there was a fierce lightening storm that caused the game to be stopped. The Astros won, 2-0.

Yesterday, after trailing 6-0, the Astros took a 7-6 lead on a homer by Carlos Lee, in the seventh inning. But in the bottom of the inning there was more fierce lightening, a three run homer from Alfonso Soriano, leading to a Cubs victory, 11-7!
