He pitched his ARSE off for them. He's obviously the guy on the right. Really nice guy too.

That's cool - always fun to get a pic take with someone famous - local, national or otherwise.

I didnt know the Astros had any current great pitchers-----they have Wandy Rodriguez who the guy pictured is not.

They have Myers who I dont believe this picture is----they have Bud Norris----I will go with Bud Norris as the the guy in the photo.

Yes I know he no longer pitches for them but during their World Series run he pitched his arse off. I loved his fire on the mound and his story on becoming a pitcher.

Samurai Japanese Hibachi restaurant off of Bay Area Blvd right before highway 6.

The funny part is I was working out a week earlier at my gym in Dickinson and he was working out there next to me. He lives around the Dickinson area, so I'm told.
