x2 Would have liked Detroit better, but Rangers are fine. LOL Just glad that the big money teams are out.
The Rangers beat the heck out of ball tonight.

Re: Congrats Texas Rangers

Just have to love watching Ron Washington manage his team. He gets more excited than my 14 yr old son when his team is rounding the bases. Excellent series to watch. Not sure if the NL is going to have a chance against Nolan's team. Nolan Ryan pitched in the first game I went to as a kid in Queens NY, so I am pulling for the Rangers too!

Re: Congrats Texas Rangers

I would like to see more offense. These one-run games are gonna drive me to drink.

Beer and baseball? Surely not....

I am diabetic, Tim. It would more likely be single malt Scotch and baseball.

Does sound odd, though.:facepalm:

Hey, anything that starts life with the same ingredients (except for the hops....don't know why they leave them out ) as does beer, has to be OK!!

Re: Congrats Texas Rangers

One run games, hey, that's the way it should be. Make a mistake and you pay, no slide step, miss the cutoff man, miss your spot over the plate. Lord knows I love "small ball". It's the difference between good teams and great ones, and these are two great teams. View attachment 119202

Re: Congrats Texas Rangers

i heard on the radio yesterday that some guy placed a 250 dollar bet on the cardinals to get in to the world series......the odds were stupid......i mean really stupid.....he won.
i think they said he won 175k ?.....he also placed a 250 dollar bet for the cards to win.....at even stupider odds.....looks like he is going to loose that one tho.....

Re: Congrats Texas Rangers

Re: Congrats Texas Rangers

How does anybody hit 3 home runs against a Nolan Ryan team?

Re: Congrats Texas Rangers

The Rangers make a habit of administering thrashings and of being badly thrashed.

Cruz hit three in one game in the ALCS.

Game 3 was the latter. Means nothing for game 4.

Re: Congrats Texas Rangers

Have family in Newark, ohio and they said Holland is a good kid/family. Hope he has a good game. 4 inns strong!!!
WOW 8 strong !!!!

Re: Congrats Texas Rangers

Wash should have let him get those last 2 outs. Feliz had me screaming obscenties before he finally got the last out.

 

[hungupthespikes]

Re: Congrats Texas Rangers

LOL Wash was right, Eveyone had seen Holland 3 times or more. Time for the closer.
Nice win, but Texas has to win the next one, winning 2 in St. Louis......

Re: Congrats Texas Rangers

I admit I have only watched about 20 minutes of the entire world series but the 20 minutes I watched was the game last night....amazing! I do hope Texas wins though only because they haven't won before.

I agree...but it wasn't very good defense on either side last night...couldn't believe the errors....and how do you get to the last strike of the last out twice and loose? Pitching! SL had less hits and more errors and still won. Should be a good one tonight! Hope the defense and pitching is better tonight. Glad it's Friday...I'm dragin butt today after the late one last night.
