You’d think the Astros would have learned their lesson. After Adolis Garcia hit a three-run walk-off homer to win Friday night’s game, he hit two home runs to spark an 8-4 victory on Saturday. So, when the Garcia came up again in the bottom of the tenth and the winning […]
Another day, another Adolis Garcia highlight. Or, more aptly, highlights. On Saturday, he hit two solo home runs to power the Rangers to an 8-4 victory over the Astros. His home run in the fifth cut the Astros lead to 4-3. His home run in the seventh sparked a five-run […]
Ah. Doe. Lease. Ah. Doe. Lease. Ah. Doe. Lease. Rangers fans have a new Na-Po-Lee chant. Ah. Doe. Lease. Ah. Doe. Lease. Ah. Doe. Lease. *****TODAY’S GAME:
Chris Woodward changed his mind. Last year, he started an uproar after publicly weeping and pearl-clutching when Fernando Tatis Jr—gasp—swung at 3-0. And hit a grand slam. You’d think he committed an act of indecency in front of women and children. It was worse, though. He broke one of the unwritten […]
That’s twice. For the second time this season, the Rangers were no-hit. Both at home. First by Joe Musgrove of the Padres. Last night by a former Rangers with a long, storied history in Arlington spanning all of one inning. Corey Kluber was part of a trade that was the […]
While it seemed cruel at the time, and a little bit knee jerk, maybe the Braves were justified in dumping Mike Foltynewicz after just one start in 2020. They’d seen enough. Here’s a pitcher who had one good year. It was very good, in fact. In 2018, he was an […]
Okay, imagine Mohammad Ali in his prime. He steps into the ring. His opponent is a five-year-old girl. You are in Vegas. You place a bet on that fight. Say, $10 million dollars to win. Nobody in the civilized world would question that. Last night, Jordan Lyles beat Garrit Cole. […]
When you think about it, the Rangers have actually exceeded expectations this year. They went into the season without a single quality starter. Dane Dunning had the pedigree but didn’t have enough major league experience to qualify as someone that could be counted on. The rest of the pitchers were […]
Well, so much for getting to .500. The Rangers first got to .500 on April 7 when they won to go 3-3. They proceeded to lose their next four games. They got close again when they were 9-10 after a win on April 21. They proceeded to lose their next […]
A long long time ago, when the Rangers were good, when they were a playoff team, the Astros were their patsy. In 2010, they were 5-1 against Houston. In 2011, 4-2. In 2012, 5-1. Then the Astros moved to the American League. And the domination continued. In 2013, Texas was […]
