They caught a bad pitcher on a bad day...

Ramirez threw 8 pitches in the first.....then 46 over the next 2.

Colby knows just what to do. Throw a 4 pitch walk to 8 hitter.

 

[RevSader]

Also the ump has a small strike zone for Colby for some reason.

We've seen that a bunch. Guy is fine in the first and then starts leaving things over the plate in the next few.

 

[RevSader]

Hello shutdown inning.

 

[donaldson79]

Was Choo primarily a lead-off hitter before coming here?

 

[RevSader]

Ramirez lasted longer than I thought he would after that grand slam.

Odor is the youngest Ranger ever to hit a grand slam and the youngest player since Jose Reyes did it in 2003.

3 innings and 10 earned for Ramirez.....ouch.

Looks like we're working on being spoilers for the M's anyway.

Good! Those fuckers played us hardest when they were in 4th place.

Gzee.....we put together an onslaught and everyone tunes out.

Normally it's the other way around.

Just enjoying you guys commenting. Any one besides me retired?

I bet you know this....I asked earlier......Was Choo exclusively or primarily a lead-off man before coming to the Rangers?

Ain't that the God's truth.

Unfortunately me....not necessarily by choice.

Most of his career ABs have been split between leading off and hitting third.

Yes. I wouldn't mind him being in the 2 spot next year. Maybe Leonys will keep hitting like this as the lead off hitter.


Leonys
Cabrera
Choo
Beltre
Fielder


looks good too

Thank you

It would be great if Martin could assume the role of LO and then have a "healthy" Choo in the 3 hole IMO.

 

[RevSader]

Young guys are getting it done today...wow.

 

[romeo212000]

Telis hitting the ball hard today.

I don't see that happening.
