Astros fans are used to this....Actually so are Redbirds fans

Roger Clemens gave up 2 runs in 4 and 1/3 innings and lost. Sounds like most of the 2005 season for the Astros. Actually the entire World Baseball Classic sounds familiar to Redbirds fans with the US team's miserable performance with men in scoring position.

Here's a question, is the fact that the US didn't make it to the finals of the WBC really that big of surprise? I mean the US won a bronze in the last Summer Olympics in basketball. Personally, I think this is just evidence that the USA will be accepting the successor to the Jules Rimet Cup come July.
