Bourn Again! (Kershaw vs. Norris)

This was not pretty, but it worked.  Norris pitched a pretty good 7 innings today, but thank goodness for the bullpen again and to the very late offense.  Besides Quintero's RBI that brought in Hall from second in the third inning, it was Bourn and Pence that literally won the game for the 'Stros.  However, the player of the game had to be Quintero.  With his RBI in the third and throwing out a Dodger runner in the top of the 4th, he was playing like a real stud today.  I was very impressed.  Bourn quickly forgot about his blunder in center field in the 7th inning when he forgot to pick up the ball that let the Dodgers to score 2 runs.  His 2-run RBI in the 9th tied the game and Pence won it an RBI single.  That's what made it nail biter to the end.  Gotta love it!
