'STROS WIN!!! 'STROS WIN!!!

CHIRS BURKE HITS A GAME-WINNING HOME RUN IN THE 18'TH!!! UN-BE-FREAKING-LEAVABLE!!!
Beat Atlanta to win the Division Series 3-1.
Down 6-1 in the eighth, Lance Berkman hit a grand slam to bring it to 6-5. Then, with two outs in the bottom of the ninth, catcher Brad Ausmus hit a solo shot that barely cleared the yellow line in left center. What followed was either the most amazing or most boring (depending on what you think of baseball) extra-inning game ever.
Burke's blast in the bottom of the eighteenth came after both the Braves and Astros wore each other down for eight+ innings. The game set several records for a postseason game, including most innings played (18). Obviously, ESPN will have better coverage and stuff. 'Stros face the Cardinals in the NLCS.
What a game! GO 'STROS!
