Yeah, now I'm an Astros fan, and I was way too worried about Game Four to be doing any trash talk. Still, I am now cautiously optimistic about "our" chances of going to the Series. Pettitte was a better pitcher than Carpenter this season, so there's a good chance this could end tonight. It's unlikely the Cardinals will beat Pettitte, Oswalt, and Clemens, but it could happen. I don't think I'm going to really believe the Astros have made the Series until the first pitch of Game One is thrown.
