Now, that's having a tough season

Mike Lamb.jpgStros reserve firstbaseman Mike Lamb is having a bad season. Coming off the best season of his career in 2004 (11 RCAA/.356 OBP/.511 SLG./867 OPS), Lamb has regressed this season to an Ausmusian -11/.259/.389/.649 stat line.

Consistent with Lamb's futility at the plate this season, in the Stros' win on Wednesday against the Nationals this week, Lamb should have been credited with a walk in the sixth inning, but instead stayed in the box and popped out to third after the plate umpire lost track of balls and strikes. At least Lamb has retained his sense of humor, as reflected by his observation about the incident in today's Chronicle:

"What a year I'm having. Now I'm making outs on walks."
