The HBP record is still mind boggling

And he has a flare for the dramatic with the grand slam tonight to win it for the Astros. He's a true class act.

I'm really disappointed. It's sad when the good ones leave, and he's definitely that.
I wonder if the Astros will let Biggio catch before the season's out.

Its been discussed for him to get behind the plate perhaps on the final weekend. Since the season is a washout, I wouldn't be surprised to see them stunt on his farewell night by having him spend three innings behind the plate, three at second and three in centerfield. That would actually be a cool reminder to the rest of America of his incredible career.

That sounds really good, but what would be better would be to let Biggio do all nine.
