Qualls blows the lead, Chron blows something else
There's something wrong about this story about last night's Astros-Reds game.
See if you can spot it:
Aurilia's blast off Chad Qualls tied the game and was the highlight of a four-run eighth-inning outburst that allowed the Reds to send the Astros to a devastating 4-3 loss Monday night at Great American Ball Park.
"Just stings even more because they scored a bunch of runs late," Qualls said. "They've always scored late, but just the way they scored. I felt good out there and made a couple of good pitches here and there. The one mistake I made, they made me pay for it."
The Astros, losers of eight of their past 10 games, fell six games behind Cincinnati in the National League wild-card race with 37 games remaining. Time is running out, if it hasn't already.
"It's certainly very disappointing," first baseman Lance Berkman said. "There's not much you can say about it."
I'll post the answer in the comments.
