Series Thread: Rangers Travel to Sacramento For Three Games With the Athletics April 22-24

Pederson needs to earn batting 3rd, not just because he’s a left handed batter sandwiched in between two right handed batters. It’s a very robotic move by Bochy.

 

[Duane1952]

What do they see in Garabito. He has 9 .00 era. He’s terrible.

From the Frisco RoughRiders:

Josh Stephan was fantastic tonight! He leaves after 6 innings.

Right on schedule.

deGrom looking very sharp early

Wasted opportunity there

First again Garcia swings at pitches out of the strike zone.
Then Jung who has been terrible and his average has dropped around 80 points again can't drive in a run has bases loaded and a 2-0 count shouldn't you either take a 1st strike to put pressure on the pitcher or at least decide that if the pitch is not right in the zone lay off of it. Instead he is fisted on a pitch inside and pops out. No common sense whatsoever.

Well said. Just hope this is not what we're going to get from Jung where he is streaky either way. He started off great now in the opposite direction.
Like you eloquently stated he should show patience on a 2-0 count instead of swinging at a bad pitch

 

[DTLUNA]

Bringing up the rear again.

 

[fanman8825]

Bringing up the rear again.

I don't even want watch this broken record

 

[WastinSomeTime]

Shame for deGrom as it will show up as 2 earned runs on a double that was a routine fly ball. It's a terrible feeling when you lose a ball in the lights.

 

[WastinSomeTime]

I was just saying to myself he will get a hit with no runners in scoring position. But glad he did.
Nice Heim.

It was nice to get encouraged again.

 

[fanman8825]

Wow now Tavares. These guys must have heard us complaining

 

[DTLUNA]

Leody gives us the lead. Credit due.

Who us? Naw. lol

 

[DTLUNA]

Wasted a chance to open up the lead.

Thinking the same thing. Very good inning that could have been great
