Thoughts on a 2-0 Rangers win
Photo by Ron Jenkins/ Rangers 2, Mariners 0 Rangers 2, Mariners 0 Ah, the stresses of a playoff race. And of close games in a playoff race. Jordan Montgomery was matched up against Logan Gilbert and was masterful, going seven shutout innings. Just five hits and two walks allowed by Montgomery, who struck out six. Montgomery mixed his pitches well, using his sinker, change and curveball in roughly equal amounts, while mixing in his four seamer from time to time as well. Seven swings and misses on his change, five on his curve, three ln his fastball. A terrific...

Thoughts on an 8-5 Rangers win
Photo by Sam Hodde/ Rangers 8, Mariners 5 Rangers 8, Mariners 5 Your first place Texas Rangers. Feels like June again, doesn’t it? We have seen this movie before…bats put up a bunch of runs, shaky bullpen scares us, Rangers ultimately take home the win, Dane Dunning was great through five innings, allowing just one hit and seemingly being on cruise control. Then a single, a HBP, and a homer made it an 8-3 game. A ground out and then a single led to the hook, with Chris Stratton asked to finish out the inning. That plan didn’t work. Walk, K, single, bases...

85-68 - Rangers leap over Mariners with big outburst from bats
Jerome Miron-USA TODAY Sports Juando brought the spirit of 1996! The Texas Rangers scored eight runs while the Seattle Mariners scored five runs. The biggest game in Arlington since Yu Darvish and Cole Hamels were fronting the rotation, Nomar Mazara was a promising 21-year old rookie, and Adrian Beltre was still a summer away from hit No. 3,000 and Juan Gonzalez was back in town for the first time in nearly 20 years? The Mariners had no chance. It didn’t take long for that to prove true as Corey Seager showed that he’s eager for some October baseball with a solo...

Thoughts on a 15-5 Rangers win
Photo by Tim Heitman/ Rangers 15, Red Sox 5 Rangers 15, Red Sox 5 The offense woke up. I am imagining someone getting mad after Jon Gray gave up that second inning homer, shutting off the game, and not checking in again until hours later. Shit looked bleak early on though, didn’t it? Gray having command issues, Rangers going down 4-0, the box o’ chocolates Rangers offense nor having done a ton of late to inspire confidence that they could put up big numbers. The offense did, of course, put up big numbers. Starting in the bottom of the second, when Texas hung six...

Jim Cowsert-USA TODAY Sports The Rangers were (momentarily) back in first place The Texas Rangers scored a beefy 15 runs while the Boston Red Sox pushed across a meager 5 runs. An inning into this game and the Rangers trailed 3-0 after starter Jon Gray allowed consecutive base runners following two quick outs before a serving up an incredibly deflating three-run dong to Adam Duvall. An inning later, after a solo shot by Bobby Dalbec, it was 4-0 Boston and Texas’ back was against the wall. Not counting the mystical, magical trip to Toronto, the Rangers had scored more...
