ALCS Game 5

[utrunner07]

alright treanor, moreland, andrus coming up

sure wish bengie was in this game

need to start getting runs in these next two innings.

CJ may be settling down just a bit (Knock on wood)

 

[Alweezy]

if cj can just get it together. we have scored 5 runs + every game so far, not that it will happen again, but still, just get it through 4 at 5.

You right but we're going against a shortened game this afternoon.

After last night, there's no way Girardi will not get that ball to his horses in the pen and Rivera is going, he hasn't pitched in forever, he'll for sure be looked to come in for a two inning save.


We got about 3 more innings to do what we can. We got to have a big inning somewhere in there. Or a couple of 1 run ones... something has to happen though quick.

 

[utrunner07]

That A Way!!!!

 

[Alweezy]

There ya go... shades of Cano's solo shot in a 5-0 game in Game 1... maybe that's the spark.


C'mon Rangers!

 

[Avaj]

Thanks Matt!! Finally see some light.

Good points, though Rivera is human, barely. Good start here got to keep being patient and smart and not try to get it all at once.

 

[utrunner07]

way to fight moreland.

way to be guys! just keep playing your game.

 

[utrunner07]

just a bit late, stay in there fighting andrus, just get on here.

 

[Alweezy]

that's what happens when the ump gives the guy the outside part of the plate... you can't even be honest at bat anymore...


We got this though... let's keep working

 

[utrunner07]

good ab young, stay patient, no double plays, hamilton coming up, give him a shot.

 

[Hostile]

Pettitte will face Lee in Game 7...

It's Hughes vs. Colby Lewis Friday if it goes there, which at this rate we're well on our way to a game 6

I think Hughes will get lit up.

Lee will be the game 1 starter for Texas.

 

[utrunner07]

THERE YOU GO YOUNG!!!!!

Young with a single to RF, men on 1st and 2nd, ham up at the plate 1 out.

 

[utrunner07]

lets go josh need to just get on here, dont try to do it all at once

 

[utrunner07]

ugh, josh.

double play ends good threat.

 

[utrunner07]

need cj to come out strong here. still got plenty of time but got to hold them at five.

 

[Alweezy]

yeah face palm on that... but the deficit is now down to 4 so we're still in this one

 

[utrunner07]

woa, curz out?

 

[utrunner07]

ugh hamstring, that is not good, that explains why he appeared to be loafing on that last ball to him.

 

[utrunner07]

lets return the favor here with a dp.

not likely w cano though

 

[Alweezy]

Alright I like CJ and all... but if this was Tommy Hunter he'd be out the game by now. CJ hasn't had comman of his pitches ALL game long. The umps are calling anything close down in the zone... This needs to be his last inning.
