Series Thread: Rangers Close Out Season in Seattle With Four Games September 28 - October 1

[scotsman1948]

Waited 1 batter too long

 

[DT LUNA]

Same old offense.

 

[DT LUNA]

Why not bunt Leody with Evan next instead of a godp

 

[scotsman1948]

Same old offense.

There just doesn’t seem to be any sense of urgency with this team. Win and you go home get 5 days to prepare for the winner between Minny & Jays. Lose and you’ve got a 6-hour flight to Tampa and Tuesday you go against Rays

They just don’t care

Any Ranger hitter other than Seager or Carter that has 2 strikes on them - I just cringe knowing a K is coming up

They don’t seem to come back from 2-strike counts very much, do they?

 

[scotsman1948]

Seattle is pitching to win Texas batters are not hitting to lose

 

[scotsman1948]

Game over, Houston wins the division

 

[WilltheThrill]

We have wasted multiple 3-0 counts this game. We get WAY too passive with the 3-0 count. Taking the 4th pitch is fine and most times the right thing to do. But then we also take the 5th pitch right down the middle. Then it becomes 3-2, and we do NOT hit well on 3-2 counts.

This offense needs to take charge next inning.. my goodness.. the division is like 2 runs away..

 

[WilltheThrill]

Pitching did their job today… 4 hits, 1 run allowed. That should win you almost every game.

 

[DT LUNA]

This offense has to be fixed in the off season.

 

[DT LUNA]

Terrible showing

 

[DTC]

Welp so much for some extra rest for the pitchers. Straight to Tampa they go

 

[scotsman1948]

Another offense quits game

It will be a quick 2 game sweep by the Rays

 

[WilltheThrill]

Perfect example there by Semien. 3-1 count and he takes a strike. Way too passive.

Evan Carter had 2 of their 4 hits. He’s the only one excused from that complete sham of an effort.

The offense mentally checked out.
