Looks like it's going to be Lee, Wilson and Feliz to close this one out for the Rangers. Rays are on the ropes, another run or two and it could be over.
Rays making mistakes but i'll credit the Rangers with forcing them into those mistakes. Rangers just look like the team that wants "it" more, 3-1 lead with Lee on the mound for at least two more innings...it's going to be tough for the Rays.
I couldn't tell from the camera angle whether his foot had contact with the bag. I saw he caught the ball in time but, at the same time, his foot was twisting and possibly missing the bag. If not, then the ref made a bad call. I need a better camera angle...hopefully after the commercial???
The Rangers with some aggressive base running, catching the Rays off guard. Those two runs produced from their aggressiveness is the difference in the game right now. Kinsler was out at first though.
You can't do that if you are living in Houston. However, I can do it because I live in North Texas not an hour from the Ballpark...even though I was born in Houston and raised an Astros fan.
I hate the Rangers and I hope the Yanks beat them but it's a lot easier to cheer Texas when the mighty 'stros aren't in the playoffs. Just like there was a lot of Rangers fans cheering for Houston when they went to the playoffs. am ashamed and feel dirty cheering for the Rangers thought
The way I look at it. The quicker the Rangers get knocked out from the post season. The quicker Dallas fans won't have any distractions from their cowboys. Then the real fun begins.
What a weird series, all the road teams are going to win each game. Congrats to the Rangers, they are set for years to come. Their biggest issue will be competing with the Yanks, Sox and Angels every year.
Cliff was already going to make a lot of money this offseason, now, he will probably be the highest paid pitcher in baseball.
