[Official] Rangers @ 2017 World Champion Astros

I could have sworn that Matt Vasgersian was trying to make us excited about a Justin Verlander/Bartolo Colon pitching matchup just now.

 

Given the way our offense has looked recently, I'm sure as hell excited about it.

eta: See? We all knew Arlington was in South Oklahoma and espn agrees. They just described the Silver Boot as an "interstate rivalry".

 

Weak crowd tonight, smallest of the season. Pretty sure they’re not all going to the Rockets game.

 

"The city of Houston is still celebrating the Astros bringing the first major sports championship to the city"

......seriously ESPN??

 

WOOOOOO UNLIMITED REPLAY

(the Rangers' phone to the replay booth is apparently broken)

EDIT: the phone has been fixed

 

Lol was just fixing to post same thing.

 

Bannister might turn this into a 4 hour game.

 

Colon makes Prince Fielder seem slim

 

As long as we're civil about it

 

I'm surprised that he didn't cry sabotage

 

Christ is this really going to turn into a pitchers duel

 

When Bartolo looks like an ace you just know the Astros hitters are slumping. So much damn flailing, where is the patience and discipline we saw in the playoffs??

 

Yep. Will be a really bad sign if we can't hit Bartolo.

 

Verlander's demeanor oozes confidence, ala Clemens.

And he's pretty good too, ala Clemens.

 

That's gotta be about the 10th smash they've hit at Beltre this series.

 

A-Rod is great

 

Altuve being short continues to be fascinating, apparently

 

Altuve really enjoyed Disney world

 

JV has thrown 90+ pitches in 24 consecutive starts.

Loser couldn't throw ONE 80-pitch shutout.

 

Don't forget Bartolo's corpulence. Vasgersian sounds like my weird LA co-workers.
