Rangers break losing streak vs Twins 6/27-6/29

[donaldson79]

7 quality innings....been a while.....if he's not gassed, then let him come out for the 8th.

 

[BLeslie59Rangers]

Let him pitch the 8th... then our MIA closer can finish it in the 9th.

I know it's the Twins, but Nick has been awesome tonight!

Hasn't this been the second good outing in a row he's had?

2 hits pretty awesome I would say, has looked really good throwing lots of strikes

He's kept it low, stayed ahead on the count for the most part. Lots of ground balls, good command all evening...I hope he bottles this up for future starts...

lost to A's 4-2 his last time out but the game before he went 6 1/3 vs seattle and didnt give up a run.

Rangers right-hander Nick Tepesch bounced back on Friday against the Mariners in Seattle, but was pegged with a no-decision in a 1-0 victory. He allowed two hits and two walks while striking out five over 6 1/3 scoreless innings.

Looks like Tep coming out for the 8th

Thanks Murph for that. Good to see one of our young pitchers turn it around. I shudder when it's Lewis and Saunders turn in the rotation.

Looks like Tep has been mixing in his changeup pretty effectively, thats the key going forward for him

 

[donaldson79]

Get someone up Wash.....first guy who gets on, yank him.

He already had Poreda & Frasor warming up last inning, no worries there

Thanks....I've been in and out of the game and didn't see the BP warming.

Nice ovation for a very nice outing for young Nick.

 

[BLeslie59Rangers]

Fantastic Nick!!!

Threw a pretty good curveball often tonight as well

Yeah, probably good advice there.

No problem DG. I would like to see Baker get a start in Saunders spot at some point maybe

Saunders next start would be Monday night? May have to be his next start after that...but I'm with you. We should give Baker a shot.

Yeah thought the next one was coming too soon since Baker did go long last night, but yeah would be nice if they save him for the one after that
