These city connect jerseys will be used for the next 2 seasons then they will have a different one.

Happy Ranger Day!

Tonight we get Bulldog Max Scherzer back to pitch against Houston's very mediocre Christian Javier who we should be able to take deep a few times. 8-3 Rangers. One more win from clinching a trip to the World Series after tonight.

Dunning should have started to begin with. Bad mistake by Bochy.

And Bradford should never pitch in a playoff game. No movement on his pitches.

Sports are dumb anyway
Just like the Astros weren't done at 0-2, the Rangers aren't done at 2-2.

But like I said, this should have been expected because the Astros do this time and time again.

So now the Rangers have to show what they're made of too.

Gonna be a great ending.

The only thing that the Ranger fans have going for us is that this team has been left for dead several times this year and have come back.

Hopefully this is another one of those times because Houston has seized control of this series.

Also that our actual good pitchers are up again, which Heaney definitely is not. Like Cotton said, not sure why he went ahead of Dunning, who was very effective this year. There have been some hints that maybe Dunning has been fighting some minor injury, that's the only thing I've got. When Heaney is off like last night, he's awful. Like last night.

Last start against Houston Dunning gave up 9. Not sure how big a factor that was in the decision but you have to think it had some. I still would have started him over Heaney but I've never been Heaney fan.

The Ranger clubhouse needs to sneak into the Astros locker room and swipe their bats. Replace them with slightly different sizes and weights. Have to do something because that offense right now is too much.

Exactly, and that's why I think they can still win this series -- they've shown that they too are pretty resilient.

I think today's game is gonna be pretty simple. Whoever takes the lead the first is going to win.

That's just the gut feeling I have about it.
