Bourn dropped from leadoff role


Houston manager Cecil Cooper has moved Michael Bourn, who has been struggling from the lead off spot to the #8 hole in the order Friday night. Copper is hoping to take some of the pressure off Bourn, and with the Astros in Texas to face the Rangers, the pitchers will not bat. Bourn responded with a single, an RBI, 2 runs scored and his major league leading 16th stolen base.
