Three more games on tap today. In a few minutes, the Astros will open their 2004 playoff series against their perennial post-season nightmare, Atlanta. The pitching matchup is Roger Clemens versus Jaret Wright, so if the 'Stros don't take this first game, they're at a decided disadvantage from here on out. The 7:00 EST game sees a rematch of the Twins and Yankees from the Bronx, with groundballers extraordinaire Jon Lieber and Brad Radke facing off. And in the west coast game, the Angels find themselves in the unenviable position of being down 1-0 at home and facing Pedro Martinez. Thanks to their 1-2 starters, the Red Sox are going to be a very dangerous post-season opponent. Enjoy.
