Series Thread: Rangers at Rays (4/4-4/6)

[WastinSomeTime]

sadly I am hoping for 6 RA over 5 innings keeping us in the game bc I think the Rangers knock around Odorizzi pretty good with the lefties in the line up tonight...maybe we can pull off an 8-6 or 9-7 type game.

You might be right considering Saunders has something like an 8 era against the Rays. Maybe he will pull one out of his hat like he did against us in the wildcard playoff game.

The offense will have to win this one and they are quite capable. Hope Joe can go five.

FYI. Chanel TXA21 AND FSSW listed on Direct TV @ 6:00 local. Hope all of you get the game. Gets a little boring when you don't. LOL

TXA21 is now channel 676-3 on DTV ... which makes sense since FSSW and TXA21 don't cover TEX simultaneously ... so sharing same channel.

If someone posted this earlier I apologize for being redundant.

Eric Nadel was on ESPN around noon, and he seemed pretty confident in our starter tonight. Said this kid has solid stuff and has his head on straight too.

Maybe he'll be this years Perez.

thanks.....exactly what I meant to say.

 

[WastinSomeTime]

He has had a few balls hit hard right at somebody.

My wife ask me if we got Saunders in a thrift store.

 

[donaldson79]

WTF Saunders?

And your answer was?

In fairness, shouldn't someone from the dugout be going out to have a chat by now?

 

[BLeslie59Rangers]

Well this is starting well....and I'm not surprised...

 

[WastinSomeTime]

We need a miracle.

 

[WastinSomeTime]

Nice catch

 

[BLeslie59Rangers]

Tampa was about to blow it, so Joe helped them out a bit

 

[WastinSomeTime]

Saunders being the veteran that he is threw less pitches than Ross did in their 1st innings. LOL!

Glass half full...

Nice job by Saunders only allowing 1 there.

 

[donaldson79]

Wow.....look at that "quick-as-a-cat" Prince Fielder would ya!

Remember that play later in the game. If we stay close, that was - at least potentially - one big play.

Sorry, but I'm giving all the credit to Prince Fielder and not Saunders. And I'm not trying to dog Joe. But good Lord, that was an awful looking 1st inning. He as a single away from this being a "looking up and seeing the bottom" kind of game.
