| 0:00.0 | The Michael Berry Show. So, first playoff game on Saturday, the biggest supporter of the |
| 0:08.6 | Astros is Mattress Mac. Does the promos with the whole, buy your furniture, get the money |
| 0:17.5 | back for a certain period of time. If you went in early, it's double your money back, constantly |
| 0:24.0 | promoting the Astros. When they have a game that they still need to sell out tickets, |
