Series Thread: Rangers Host The Twins August 31-Sept. 2

Think that was portrayed in a movie too. Long time baseball fans are familiar with that one. Rougie was interviewed about it and played his part down. Said he was pulling for him. Kids has Stepdad too. Takes a lot of love to keep it going under those situations but sure Kohen dishes out love big time. Love to see those with challenges get a little grace and understanding

Me too brother.

EA launches one for a 2-0 lead

Nice catch by Maz....good approach to it especially.

And Mendez with 42 pitches through 3 is pretty good to see too.

Odor you look like intoxicated goose.

Guzman handled that DP very nice.

Whatever it takes to keep his OBP and OPS where they are

He got picked off 1st not helping the OBP.

What happened with this Saddles? I was looking forward to it.

Maz really put the bat on the ball last time up but lined out to RF so it was good to see him hit that one out.

The future is on the horizon.

If it weren't for that snafu he'd have 4 runs scored today instead of just 3

Nice game by Mendez.

Butler may be looking for a job pretty soon.

Butler may be looking for a job pretty soon.

Just walked into to see our shutout lost and figured it to be Butler. He needs a bit more work. Hoping he starts out in AAA next year if still here

Here's another human interest re J Jeffress who did the Rangers no favors Good read.

Funny how a guy like him who has obvious defects/demons can show acts of kindness that we are short of these days.
Thank the Lord for second chances.

Great interview of Mendez. Kid hit rock bottom and had to work to get one final shot to be a major league pitcher with the Rangers. Only saw highlights and it looked like defense helped him but he looked like he took this very soberly knowing this may be the most important month of his baseball career.

Going to be pulling for him big time going forward.

Things like this is why I follow Rangers and baseball in which some would say be a write off season....... It is the great game

 

[Kelleyman]

Like seeing the Ks. Hopefully he can get swing and miss stuff in the bigs

He is trying to remove the question mark that I put beside his name on that list of pitchers who could potentially fight for a rotation spot next year.
