From Shawn McFarland:

Corey Seager is just the fifth player in Rangers history to hit eight or more home runs over an eight-game span. The others:

Joey Gallo (2021)
Josh Hamilton (2012)
Rafael Palmeiro (1999)
Jose Canseco (1994)

Hamilton did that 3 different times.

Hamilton was so good at first and then he just went mental. Too bad. Everybody could see it except the Angels. LOL!

 

[DT LUNA]

How bout that Tinoco? Give the boy a hand.

That's an impressive list if you include an asterisk by Joey. ha ha ha.....couldn't help myself.

As the season progresses how do y'all feel about Tinoco?

Too early for me to say but I really hope he can be a viable option in the latter innings. We've had a number of guys who look like they could help and just flame out. But so far so good.

I haven't been able to see him pitch ever, so I was curious. Thanks for the reply.

Duran making the 9th inning take way too long as he is unable to field a couple of balls.

Hoping for the shut-out to help mentally

Scherzer still having nerve problems in his thumb.

Duran making the 9th inning take way too long as he is unable to field a couple of balls.

When they announced the lineup, I thought Duran should have been at third and Smith at 2B.

 

[saddles]

Win!!

 

[saddles]

Maybe, we have turned it around.

I think it would be good to keep him at an inning if possible. His 1st outing against the Phillies which are a hot team he gave up a HR in his 2nd inning of work. He was charged with a run when he left with a runner on in his 2nd stint and Robertson had one of his few bad outings and gave up a HR. Today it was in his 2nd inning of work where he he gave up a couple of hits.

Maybe Boche is starting to see the light with Knizner and Grossman. Jonah played Catcher in a day game after he played there the night before. That is unusual for Bochy.

 

[WastinSomeTime]

Maybe, we have turned it around.

Hope so. Seager has been a big part of that and maybe he gets the rest of the team going.

Adolis walked three times so maybe he is turning it around too.

I thought the same thing and Semien being as good as he is on those types of balls probably makes the play but after I thought about it they were hard hit balls with very short hops so I will give the guy a little bit of a break on them this time. Only because we won.

Gray and Sborz have each thrown a bullpen. Gray says it is mainly being well enough to field his position that he is needing.

Urena expects to make his next start.
