"The Yanks should win this series just by throwing their pinstriped uniforms onto the field and reading from a few pages of The Baseball Encyclopedia."
Ron Washington will be blowing lines of happiness if they can dispose of the Yankees.
I think it's safe to say, ol' Ronnie and Josh will be doing the slalom if they make it to the World Series....ifffffff ya know what I mean....
How many Ron Washington cocaine jokes can we make this series? I put the over/under at 34.5

It was a pretty funny article, I'll give it that. And it was probably a joke anyway.
He must've written one of those about the Phillies last year.
When they asked (Phillies Prez) David Montgomery about the Yankees batboys all wearing #27 last year, he said maybe we'll have ours wear #3.
Anyways, point being us Phils fans know all about rooting for a perpetual losing franchise.

Well, here we go. The Yankees and fans seem supremely confident in the "fact" that they are significantly better than the Rangers. Better maybe, but maybe not that much. And I am not a Yankee hater since we are normally just a blip on their radar.
I know I am a Rangers fan but I really believe this can go either way. Like I said above, if CJ wins Game 1, this series is all of a sudden very winnable for Texas.

in all seriousness, the author is best known for showing up at big games to sit with the Bleacher Creatures and document their goings on. even wrote a book about it
Ron Washington had no excuse for using 5 relivers in an inning and not one of them was named perez. The save situation is so overrated

Stacking the odds against the Rangers, Hughes has owned Texas throughout his young career. In 15 1/3 innings, the 18-game winner in 2010 has not allowed a run, while going a spotless 2-0. Hughes is also red-hot, having blanked the Twins over seven frames in his first postseason start on Oct. 9.

he was up until the 2nd inning of this game. the 1st inning was posada's bad play. and the ump not calling that strike 3 to hamilton. but he didn't have it for the rest of the game.
We have ourselves a series now. I wasn't comfortable until the 9th but we got the split so all good. Usually the road team is looking for the split but I am perfectly fine with being tied 1-1 with Lee coming up next, then facing Burnett, then we get to have CJ pitch again. Feeling much better now.

Same here. Feel a little more like I can enjoy the rest of the series.
just found this topic. I'm a lifelong rangers fan. can finally be proud of them after so many years of let downs.

http://www.amazon.com/Bleeding-Pinstrip ... 1582617694
ETA: showing up at big games only
one more thing to ETA: they have a poll, who will win the series and in how many games. teh runaway winner is :Rangers in 6
I would have left CJ in there.
Kinsler cannot go all ADHD on the basepaths.
No blame on Young. That was a fucking laser.
And you can't let them get away with it when their ace is having a shitty night.
Gut-punch loss for sure but there are still many games left. Although I think my original theory will hold true. I don't trust Colby Lewis.
