Still trying to get my heart to slow down. What a freaking win, Rangers up two games to nothing, just a dream start to the series.

LETS GO RANGERS!:texasflag:
 
I'm here, WM - was at my Bible Study Fellowship class this evening, so I had to follow the last few innings on my cell. Very nice W for the Rangers. Coming back to Arlington up wo games to none. Would really like to see the Rangers win two of the three games in Arlington - going back to Houston is not a pleasant thought.

It's time for the Astros to tell Maldy thank you for your service and start Diaz. The 8-9 hitters for Texas are way better!

Maldy apparently has incriminating photos given how Dusty misused a potential AL ROY in Diaz.

It pained him to speak well of Diaz in games where he hit a HR...
 
So Scherzer is now confirmed as the game three starter. As good as we all might feel about the Rangers right now, don’t forget that the last time the Astros came to Arlington, just a few weeks ago, they swept the Rangers and no game was even close so nothing has been accomplished yet, even if right now it’s advantage Rangers.

definitely nervous about Scherzer. I really wish we'd at least integrate him in with a middle relief appearance for 2 or 3 innings, while starting Heaney or Dunning before just throwing him out there for a crucial game 3 start. rumors have it that he's actually been ready for a good week or so. if he can keep the homers to solo shots like we did in game 2, we might escape. it is nice to know we have those starter/long relief pitchers in dunning/Perez still avaliable with Gray back.

as mentioned above, Houston bludgeoned the Rangers in Arlington last month. clearly we are not that team right now, so that's a plus. that was also eovaldi's first start back off the IR(which was too early imo) thank goodness he's looking back to pre all-star form. should be an exciting few games in Arlington. would LOVE to close it out at home, but the silver lining is if we do have to go back to Houston, we'd most likely be throwing Montgomery and Eovaldi again. unless we decide to throw Monty for game 5 on 4 days rest. that would leave Eovaldi for 6 and Scherzer for game 7 if necessary.
 
Can any of you meet at Tolberts at Globe Life Wed. night to watch the game!?

I know it is short notice. UTA HORN alerted me to try....
 
crazy to think the Phillies as a 4 seed have played 6 home games and Rangers as a 5 have played 1. :idk: weird how that works out sometimes.
 
That's because the NL has the Dodgers in it. Always given a top 2 seed and nearly always bounced in their first round, opening up home field for a low seed.

Texas had a time when they were sinking in quicksand in almost every series. imo houston wasn't a factor really. From August 16 to Sept 8, they went...

4-16

...to your point, THIS is not THAT team.
 
Finally Jung 2 run HR baby!!

5-2 Astros

End of 5th. Plenty of time Deez... some batters will now get 3rd look at Javier's pitches....
 
T6th, Stratton in to pitch for Max.

Taveraz makes a huge over the wall catch to prevent a solo HR !!!
