Series Thread: The Oakland A's at Your Texas Rangers 4/28 - 4/30

[BLeslie59Rangers]

God almighty, they are torching Perez...we are getting totally outclassed in every facet against these bastards...

 

[Duane1952]

That was Rio's ball all the way. Why didn't he call off Wilson?

And it cost us.

 

[darrylgann]

Who's pitching long relief today?

 

[donaldson79]

Just one more way to lose a game.

I can't fault Wilson since Rio's never said a word.

Their first 3 hits were rockets, and then bloop 2 in row before Norris launches another one.

Maybe it's just going to be that kind of night.

But alas.....I'm going out tomorrow night and I'll not come back empty handed gentlemen.

Choice has been below average in LF, which is really surprising.

 

[Nightcrawler]

Damn.... I knew this would be a tough series, but I didn't expect to see this. Better hope the team wakes up soon. Would be huge if we could win tomorrow. Big difference between 1/3 and a sweep. 2 game swing in the standings.

Who's pitching long relief today?

Would it be Tolleson?

 

[BLeslie59Rangers]

Hey, a base hit!!, yippee.

 

[darrylgann]

Would it be Tolleson?

Sounds right. Not sure how long you would wait.

Choice has been below average in LF, which is really surprising.

Perhaps we're seeing why he should be in AAA. Like this young man, but it does seem to me he'd/we would be better served with him playing at a lower level. Always felt this way.

What's the situation with Aducci? I forget.

Yeh, he's been unimpressive defensively...

 

[WastinSomeTime]

Come on ump!

 

[donaldson79]

That ball wasn't even close. Com'on now ump.

 

[WastinSomeTime]

Should 1st and 2nd no outs. Big difference.

 

[donaldson79]

Yeh, he's been unimpressive defensively...

Hell, he's hitting about .200 too.

Like I said, really like this young man. But he seems a little overwhelmed.

Things might have been different if he was played right away while still hot. Instead he didn't play until the 4th game or so.

 

[WastinSomeTime]

I guess he is going to call those balls inside by Kazmir a strike because he called that first one to Wilson a strike.

Something to do with his finger, I think. 15 game DL?
