Big debut today
 
Oilertige who is a member here and has been a partner in some of the Dee Tee stable horses is the sire of Marc Krauss who makes his major league debut this afternoon for the Houston Astros against the wretched Cubs at historic Wrigley field. Can't imagine how excited they both are.

I've been watching for this since I met Dave at Arlington Park. Good luck to them both and congrats!

I hope he plays Saturday. I'll be in the bleachers in left field.

I'll be gentle.

Will you be wearing your white suit?

So tremendous... The Krausses were at Belmont and it was great to see them. As nice a time as they had on their NY trip, I doubt it will hold a candle to this experience. BOL Marc!

That is an amazing feat to make it to the bigs

Before I was married, I was forced to agree to a dress code if I was to be in public with my now wife, whom I will be with Saturday. The white suit, while still around, was one of the things that absolutely didn't make the cut.

Congrats Oilertige, that's awesome. Best of luck to your son, hopefully he stays in the show for good.

NTamm1215 06-21-2013 09:33 AM

Best of luck! He will be an instant improvement over Trevor Crowe, who stinks, even for an Astro.

I will be rootin' for Marc and the "Stros" God knows we can use all the help we can get. Good Luck Marc! Congrats Oilertige!

Congrats to him and to his son for making it to the big leagues.

I assume watching your son succeed has to be one of the biggest thrills of being a father.

Thanks!!!
 
Really appreciate the kind words....yesterday was just an unbelievable day!!! He did get a pinch hit chance late in game to make his MLB debut and it was the best strikeout ever!:) One can't predict what the future holds for him in this game, but he is in the books!! Again thanks to all....

Making it to "The Show" is an unreal accomplishment! That's great!

Will be searching for him on MLB2k14 video game with my son.

I now have a reason to follow the box scores.

TheSpyder 06-24-2013 06:04 PM

Upward and onward. Best of luck to him.
