Texas Rangers

[YosemiteSam]

Rangers have tied it up. They have five stolen bases in this game, three of them were stealing 3rd base.

Millwood should be out of the game, but he isn't. So he walks and gives up hits. Tigers take a 4-3 lead in the bottom of the 8th. :bang2:

Two men on at 1st and 3rd, Michael Young fails to be clutch again by hitting into a game ending double play. Rangers lose 4-3.

Michael is clutch his entire career, then this year comes and it vanishes.

Beat the Yankees!

Padilla was outrighted to the minors for hitting Mark Teixeira twice. It appears the Rangers are hoping some team will grab him off waviers so they don't have to pay his $8M contract this season while in the minors. Or him outright refuse, which will void the remainder of his contract. His contract ends this season.

Last night's win against the Yankees was good stuff. I was lucky enough to get to see it first hand. It rained right up until the game was about to start. It was a bit on the cool side too.

I took two pics with my Blackberry

Before the game while it was raining.

From my seat. This was Nelson Cruz's first at bat with AJ Burnett pitching.

They were second row in section 310. They weren't great seats, but we had a fairly good view. I was happy with them, especially at the price I paid for them. We had four tickets that had a face value of $50 each, but we got all four off Ebay for $67 total shipped!

I guess being a Rangers fan save you money. You damn sure wouldn't have gotten Yankee / Redsox tickets for that price!

Thanks, phone cameras are so much better than they were before! The first pic (before the game) I actually had to scale down. It was three times that size!

Nope, but I buried a old Texas Rangers A-Rod and Mark Teixeira jersey while I was there!

CJ Wilson has a ton of talent. The Rangers need to trade him while he has high value. He is the most inconsistant ****ing pitcher on the planet. :bang2:
