Texas Rangers World Series Thread

[Nash B.]

I think they brought in Gentry for 2 reasons. 1 is he has some speed so its a plus on the base running. Also he was in centerfield late in Game 5 and I think in Game 4 as well to cover the field being that Hamilton has that groin issue. So the moved Hamilton to Right I think or maybe Left.

Gentry is a better centerfielder than Hamilton.

They didn't take Murphy out until after he got to third base on Napoli's double. Speed and defense, since they wouldn't (shouldn't have) need Murphy's bat again.

Today's game day and it's time to win it and bring it home!

They've both won championships there and they are both great ballplayers. I consider them both to be traitors and they are one of the reasons why i hate the yankers, but they are certainly all-stars not truly deserving of your begrudgement.

I don't begrudge Tex. He brought us Feliz, Harrison, and Andrus.

I've heard talk on sports radio that MLB is already thinking about postponing today's game until tomorrow. There's an 80% chance of rain in St L and they don't want to have to start/stop the game and play on a wet field when the next 2 day's forecast is supposed to be clear. I hope we get to play tonight though.

Apparently it's true. Decision to be made at 1pm.

I wish the last sentence of the article were true. Reporting fail = Entering Game 6, the Texas Rangers lead 3-2 in the best of seven series. Should the hosting Cardinals prevail, they would force a Game 7 at Rangers Ballpark in Arlington.

Shit, well that's probably the best idea.

[Machx2]

Please play tonight. Battle of the bullpens anyone?

Where did he/ she get that factoid ?

Postponing the game would be great, I've got shit to study for.

tivo ftw!

[Geor!]

It's Joe Torre's way of giving Carpenter another day to rest in hopes that it goes game 7 so he can pitch and win the series rather than Texas. Fuckin' greaseball.

Besides, sporting events are only good live IMO.

right now the radar looks good, there is a small band of showers that will hit St. Louis probably in an hour, but thats it. No big storms or big rain storms that are heading that way. If it stays like it is, MLB will have no excuse to cancel the game.
