May 23: San Francisco: 0 Hits, 2971 Career Hits
By Robert H. Kelly
The Astros and Craig Biggio both came up short in the third game of the series against the San Francisco Giants.
The Astros drop the game by the score of 9-1 and Biggio went hitless in four at bats , with one walk.
Next team on tap: the Arizona Diamondbacks
NOTE: Drug cheat Barry Bonds did not play in the game. I guess he was feeling poorly.

May 17: San Francisco: 0 Hits, 2966 Career Hits
By Robert H. Kelly
Craig Biggio again went hitless in the Astros 2-1 loss to the Giants.
His career hits remain unchanged at 2966.
PS: Drug cheat Barry Bonds was walked twice and struck out once. The Astros fans were very hostile towards him. I WONDER WHY????

By Robert H. Kelly
Craig Biggio did not get a hit in the Astros 6-5 win over the Giants.
he remains at 2966 career hits.
PS: Barry Bonds also had no hits and no homeruns in the game. In fact he was walked twice.
If more players were like Craig Biggio and less like Barry Bonds, the game of baseball would be a much better game! (this is my opinion, and not necessarily the opinion of all the staff of TexSport Publications.)
