Was that the most entertaining game in the last 5 years or am I just off my (John) Rocker? It goes without saying that it sure was not the prettiest victory. I mean you expect a team to loose after their man gets picked off 3rd base in the bottom of the 6th. Those are the type of plays that propel a team to victory. It sure seemed like it also after Lance Lynn served up a couple of meatballs to Adrian Beltre and Nelson Cruz. Making the score 6-4 in the top of the 7th.
Exactly Nelson, not so fast there fella. Even though the Rangers would tack on another run thanks to Ian Kinsler, it would still not be enough. In the bottom of the 9th inning with 2 outs and 2 strikes, David Freese was able to hit a 2 run double to tie the score the score at 7. You have to love the hometown kid coming through in the clutch here. I’m not so sure it was so much his good piece of hitting or Cruz’s awful attempt at making a play on the ball. You need to know your surroundings man, it isn’t the first time you played in the stadium. Game 1 in St. Louis I can see that happening but you had 3 games to get adjusted, just a botched play on his part.
