Gallo goes opposite field for a homer.

 

[DT LUNA]

Well, it's almost game time, but I'm anticipating very little turnout today due to several reasons.

Know what you mean. Crawler and Eph are out hunting eggs.

Yeah, ya know, it's Easter Sunday, the weather is terrific, and this year, I think we all pretty agree that missing a game or two might just become habit. ha

 

[DT LUNA]

Much better inning for Minor.

 

[donaldson79]

Gotta admit, that was an impressive AB and walk that Odor just got.

 

[DT LUNA]

Good to see Odor taking a walk.

Ha....beat ya to it.

And honestly, that was some pretty good plate discipline, especially for a guy like Odor. In previous years he'd swung at both of those last 2 balls.

 

[donaldson79]

Minor has only given up 1 hit. But goodness gracious he's giving up a bunch of long and loud outs in his first 3 innings.

 

[Kelleyman]

Nice pitching to get out of that jam. ump giving the outside strike. Good to see a little baseball

 

[DT LUNA]

Gotta appreciate the job Minor has done.

 

[DT LUNA]

Offense can't let Minor's game go for naught. Gotta win these kind of games.

 

[Kelleyman]

Have to bring Martin in soon if not now

 

[donaldson79]

Gotta appreciate the job Minor has done.

And we've gotten ONE hit!

And I don't at all understand why Bannister left him out there to give up that last run.

 

[donaldson79]

Fellas, we've got 6 guys in our line-up today hitting .214 or less. THAT'S amazing, even with this small of a sample size.

Yep. Our leftfielders are a combined 0 for 13.

 

[Bmurph]

I think 5-9 hitters were like 0-18 yesterday. 1 hit today and this offense sucks. 2 now with Elvis hit

 

[Bmurph]

Some wide corners for the ump today.

 

[Bmurph]

Of note in this series, the Rangers have had some strange outfield alignments it has seemed

 

[Duane1952]

I wonder who will be the first starting pitcher to make it to the sixth inning. At this rate the bullpen will be worn out by the break.

 

[Kelleyman]

Getting ugly
