Napoli needs some redemption. Mike, it is unusual for him to struggle this much, hitting the ball hard, hopefully it will eventually start falling.

Bring on Moore, our problem was we hadn't seen him. Now we have.

I know, Napoli, Young and Cruz have been absent from this series. If their bats would awaken today this series is over.

Kotchman singles to make it 3-2. He struck out, but the ump wasn't watching apparently.

The Rays are like a zit on the inside of your nose, very annoying and takes a while to go away!

Well Nap has had big hits. Young and Cruz have been absent.

Matt Moore in now, hope we can get to him this time.

Moore looks awful good now. We can only hope that we do, or 3 runs might not be enough.

Matt Moore is unstoppable...this kid is going to be their best pitcher and might be already

It appears the Rangers want to make this a stomach twister just like yesterday's game.

I'm going in with the mindset that the Rangers haven't given up a lead yet in this series. Just because they happened to get it early in Game 4 simply means you can relax or fixate on your stamp collection instead (I'm going to mow the lawn). We got dis ting.

That was a hard fought inning for Harrison. We are through 5.

Harrison's pitch count is up there. If he can really dig in maybe we can get 7 innings out of him. That would put him around 120 pitches.

Hopefully no Koji. If we can get 1 more inning out of Harrison, we'll be in good shape.

Rangers offense looks content to just get through the innings and let the pitching staff win this.

Just looking at the GameDay, it looks like Moore is just mowing the Rangers down with little effort.

He is only throwing a 4 seam fastball (80%) and a slider (20%)

 

[cowboyeric8]

Well it's Holland's turn. Come on buddy.

He is at 97 now. I don't think Wash lets him throw 120 pitches.

EDIT: Yep, there is Holland.

 

[cowboyeric8]

Nice play by Moreland at first!

 

[YosemiteSam]

Come on Holland. Smoke them!

 

[Draegerman]

Hopefully no Koji. If we can get 1 more inning out of Harrison, we'll be in good shape.

I'll take Koji over Oliver. With Koji comes uncertainty. With Oliver, there's no doubt.

 

[cowboyeric8]

Come on Holland. Smoke them!

Holland did his job. So I'm guessing Adams for 7, Ogando for 8, Feliz for 9?

 

[dback]

lol... Another HR for Beltre

 

[cowboyeric8]

Matt Moore, meet Adrian Beltre! 4-2 Rangers!

 

[Draegerman]

Damn, I'm so glad we got Beltre'.

 

[TheCoolFan]

Amazing!
