There is life left in the Rays after all. Down three games to none, down 3-2 in the twelfth inning, Tampa Bay rallied back. It was one of the lightning quick rallies that the Brewers had crushed them with. It started with an error, as so many downfalls do. Then […]
Game 3 is a must-win for the Rays. No pressure. Just win. Just beat the team that has won seven consecutive post-season games in 2026. Just beat the team that has won nine out of the ten post-season games they’ve played, coming from behind to win seven of them. That’s […]
Like this year, the Brewers and Dodgers faced off in National League Championship Series in 2025. And, like last year, the Brewers had the best record in baseball. But last year, the Brewers were swept four games to none by the Dodgers, scoring just one run a game in all […]
There are moments in a must-win game that winning teams take advantage of, and losing teams don’t. Bottom of the second, 0-0 score. Jake Burger leads off, reaches on an error. Brandon Nimmo singles. Two on, no outs. This is a decisive moment. A winning team takes advantage of it, […]
It’s just a matter of perspective, I guess. After Sunday’s 7-6 victory over the Diamondbacks, Rangers manager Skip Shumaker said he was proud of the resilience of his Rangers team, how they have been able to storm back into the race for the American League West division, sitting just one […]
The Rangers are nothing if not predictable. They play .556 baseball at home, and they just finished their most recent homestand 4-3, as scheduled. Now they go on the road, where they are .431, for six games. They will go 2-4. When the homestand started, they were 2.0 games out […]
The Rangers season in a nutshell was described by a graphic they showed in the bottom of the seventh of last night’s game with the Brewers leading 3-1 and bases loaded and no outs. BATTING AVERAGE WITH BASES LOADED TEXAS RANGERS: .212, 28TH MILWAUKEE BREWERS: .350, 1ST Then the Brewers […]
The Rangers lost two out of three to the first place White Sox. And for that, they get to move on to play the best team in baseball—the Brewers—for three in Milwaukee. It didn’t help that they ran themselves out of the first inning, with Corey Seager getting picked off […]
Just exactly like every single Rangers fan who is rational and sane could have predicted, the day after their most dramatic win, they hit a brick wall. One hit, a shutout loss, an embarrassing offensive display. This team does not have the ability to be good. They are destined for […]
After being swept by the Astros, the Rangers started a stretch of games against teams they should beat. Or, in their case, should go .500 against. They played the Giants for three, won two of them. They played the Orioles for three, won two of them. Now it’s four against […]
