    Arlington Clown Show Try Hards already crying about cheating on TwitX. Southern Oklahoma sports talk has been vacillating between utter hopelessness and false bravado all day. It's been glorious.

    Do they realize if the Stros are cheating in Globe Life they would need the help of Rangers or Stadium Staff?

    Would be hilarious if he went 7 or 8.

    Neris and Abreu could use another day off.

    Pressly has only pitched twice this series.

    Man they've got to start hitting these in the gaps eventually right? Right?

    9 outs, 8 weak groundballs right to a fielder and 1 easy fly out.

    I love that they're being aggressive. But if you're being aggressive, the result stays the same and you're keeping his pitch count low, you gotta try something different. I'd like to see some different approaches at the plate from some guys the rest of the way. You can't keep the Rangers hitters down forever.

    Damn Montgomery other than that homer and single to Yordon looks locked in.

    This could be another pitchers duel.

    I appreciate that they're trying to be aggressive but you have to be smart about it.

    Too many ground outs. Even if a runners on it’s possible DP. JV needs to continue dominating.

    We're letting this fool show out again.

    BABIP gods aren't BABIPing

    Only 31 pitches thru 3.

    JV gotta keep balling.
