News: Biggio went 5-for-6 with five singles, including the 3,000th hit of his career in Thursday's 8-5 win over the Colorado Rockies. Though Biggio was thrown out trying to extend his 3,000th hit into a double, it did drive in the tying run. Career hit number 3,002 was an infield single that extended the game with two outs in the bottom of the eleventh after the Astros had fallen behind in the top half of the inning. Biggio would also score the tying run later ahead of three other happy Astros on Carlos Lee's walkoff grand slam.
Views: Congratulations to Biggio, and it's nice to see that he finally had a game that might help his six owners. Biggio raised his batting average twelve points to .250 with his five hit night, but still isn't worth your time unless you're in a deep or NL-Only league.
