Getting back on track...
...from what I saw (bless HDtv), it looked like the pitch from Remlinger hit Berkman either on the hands or bat. I say either because from there, the ball travelled sharply downward and hit Berkman in the helmet; he went down in a heap. Putting this in context, the bases were loaded at the time and Remlinger had just been brought in to relieve Dempster in the top of the 8th. Baker came out to question whether the ball hit the hands or the bat, again because of the way the ball travelled. The 'Stros went on to score four more runs after this...
...in the bottom of the ninth, Astros' pitcher Wheeler plunked D. Lee in the back and was ejected w/Coach Garner...
