As it was going in his glove I said to my girl that he's catching it flat footed. He has no chance.

Yep. That game was over before the ball ever hit his glove.

I'm pretty sure I have a better arm than Colby Rasmus.

What an embarrassment.

Guess the juice hasn't helped his arm, swear that guy has gained 30 lbs of muscle

Great win for the Rangers!

And FWIW, Holland was on regular 4 days rest. Need to be better next time Dutch. And I believe he will be.

1ST PLACE!!

That's true. Good thing Gomez is hurt. He's spastic and isn't always accurate, but he has a good arm.
They took Marisnick out and from what I understand he has a good arm.

I could be wrong since I did not look this up but I believe we are 10-4 against the Astros.

They are melting right now. The pressure is just too much for them. Not enough guys who've been there before.

I was thinking that he was pitching on 4 days rest as well.

I want to go to sleep but I can't right now b/c I'm still jacked up from the game and walk-off.

You may be right about that. It will be a tough one tomorrow but I am just going to count on Perez pitching a great game.

They've been kinda melting as is esp on the road. I posted a stat in maybe another thread where since a point in July they'd only won like 5 or 6 games or something to that effect.

That said I still fully expect this thing to go to the last couple of days of the season. They have great fight in them.

Did not realize that out of our 14 hits 13 were singles. And we are keeping them from going yard which is their M.O.

The Rangers' win tonight gave them sole possession of 1st place in the AL West for the first time this season. According to Elias, that makes them the 5th team in the divisional era to grab sole possession of 1st place for the first time on September 15 or later.

First place... who would of thunk it? So do you think we have the tools to make a deep playoff run?

I know we got to make it first but we just increased our odds a lot.
