G121: Rangers win on my birthday, 5-1
On Monday, I got to keep up a tradition my mom started back before I was 10 years old. That’s to go to my birthday game. If the team was in town on my birthday, I went to the game. If not in town,...
View ArticleG122: Feldman gives up big inning, loses 5-3
Scott Feldman has been quite odd this season. He was horrendous early on, and then lately he’s been like the 2009 version. His last 2-3 starts have been somewhere in the middle. Like this one – he...

G124: Rangers top Twins again, 10-6
This game was a good back and forth game for quite awhile. The lead changed or tied four times through the first 7 innings. Those kinds of games are good for fans. The pitchers probably don’t like...
View ArticleG125: Historic win in Texas, 8-0
There’s two things that will dominate any discussion of this game, but that’s not a surprise at all. That’s Matt Harrison’s completely dominant start, coming close to a no hitter. And of course,...
View ArticleG126: Rangers bomb Twins AGAIN, 9-3
I’m not going to write a ton about this one. Mostly because I’ve been writing now for over an hour, and I’m starting to burn out on writing about baseball tonight. But I will say this: Up 2-0 after...
View ArticleG127: Feldman blah again, Rangers lose 6-5
OK, Scott Feldman started the season really REALLY awful, and I was openly mocking him. Then in mid season, he bounced back, and for like a month or so, and looked like the 17-9 version from a few...
View ArticleG128: Beltre leads Rangers to 6-5 win over TB
Adrian Beltre was the big deal in this game. He went 3-3 with a walk, a run scored, and four RBI. Two of his three hits were a double and a home run. The Rangers had a second home run this game, it...
View ArticleG129: Yu dominates Rays; Rangers win 1-0
Yuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu! This is the kind of outing I envisioned happening every other start when we signed Darvish. Well, OK – maybe not THAT many, but I figured we’d see this kind...
View ArticleG130: Rays crush Rangers, 8-4
Well, OK, maybe not crush. That word implies a score like 17-3 or something like that. The Rangers only lost by four runs, but it felt bad pretty quickly. After the top of the second, we were down...
View ArticleG131: Rangers beat Indians, 5-3
Led by Adrian Beltre, the Rangers got out to an early lead, and kept it the whole game, although they tried to give it back late. Beltre was 4-5 in this game with two doubles and scored two runs....
View ArticleG132: Feldman does it again, we lose 4-3
Feldman does it again. I got so annoyed by this, I’m only writing this small bit. Feldman gave up four runs in the bottom of the first. We never came back from it. David Murphy and Adrian Beltre did...

G133: Profar debuts, Rangers win
This game can be summed up with a few bullet points, but I’ll go into detail below on some of this.. Jurickson Profar made his major league debut Rangers homered four times Jurickson Profar homered in...
View ArticleG134: Darvish wins again, 8-4 over Royals
The Rangers go into Kansas City, a mild “house of horrors” in recent years, and seemingly weren’t bothered by that. They were up 6-0 going into the bottom of the 6th before they surrendered any runs...
View ArticleG135: Harrison loses again, 6-3 to Royals
Ugh. That’s two not good outings in a row for Matt Harrison. Not liking that. Elvis Andrus had a home run. I liked that. That was about it, though.

Taking a pass on this one. Please check the mlb recap.
View ArticleG137: Rangers in in 10 over Royals, 5-4
I normally dislike extra innings games, as I’ve said before, because most of the time it feels like we lose them in the 10th inning. There’s a feeling that it’s more “sudden death”, and if we get...
View ArticleG138: Rangers lose in walkoff in extras 3-1
Given I just talked about extra innings a lot the last few games, I go and get one of these, that usually make me review the game with “Shit!”. So I’m not going to say much, because we lose in a...
View ArticleG139: More extras, we win this time, 4-2
Jurickson Profar! Should we buy into it totally at this point? :) It was a big pitching duel for sure. Yu Darvish pitched awesome, but got a no decision. Eight innings, two hits and two runs (just...
View ArticleG140: Rangers shut out, lose 6-0
Nelson Cruz & David Murphy had singles. That’s IT. James Shields just shut us down. Two singles, no walks, struck out eight times. Our offense did nothing. Roy Oswalt started this, and is...
View ArticleG141: Harrison wins, 6-4 over Indians
Our most consistant pitcher of the year took the hill for this game, that being Matt Harrison. Matt wasn’t terribly strong, but hung in there long enough to get the win. He came out of the game...
