Game 6 rangers vs cardinals

[eagleqb_14]

HOPE THE Rangers can pul this one off in 6, game 7 would make me nervous!!! LETS GO RANGERS!!!! WE BELIEVE!!!!!

[Phantom Stang]

I hope the Rangers' season comes to an abrupt end tonight.

[firstdown]

I hope the Rangers' season comes to an abrupt end tonight.


Me too! Go Rangers

[Emerson1]

Last night was just a slight Reign Delay. nbd.

[Phil C]

I'm hoping the Rangers have good pitching and defense along with the bats going tonight like the Cardinals bats did in game 3. If not tonight then tomorrow night but it would be great if it was tonight. Go Rangers!

[Tin Cup]

Both teams planned on this series being over tonight. Sounds right to me. Go RANGERS!!!

[Txbroadcaster]

I am so damn nervous about tonight I turned off the pre game stuff

[eagleqb_14]

praying that we win lol!! we believe!!!

[eagleqb_14]

Gametime!!!

[Roughneck93]

Great start by the Rangers!

[eagleqb_14]

1-0 rangers!!!

[STANG RED]

Could have been a big inning if the Rangers are a bit more patient and quit swinging at balls. I think he would have walked several, but they kept bailing him out by swinging at bad pitches.

[orange machine]

Waiting on Phil to tell us it's over.

[eagleqb_14]

2-1 cards we got this rangers, dont give up!!!

[eagleqb_14]

ian kinslerrrrrrr 2-2

[Tejastrue]

Lets go Colby...

[Phil C]

I see the tendancy. We are not making the most of opportunities and I think it will continue. No way we can win game 7 tomorrow with Carpenter pitching. It looks like we aren't going to take advantage tonight. St. Louis is making the most of it so this series is lost. It is over. :(

[Farmersfan]

Good start for the Rangers. I like that they have been able to get people on base against this pitcher. Now they just have to take advantage of it. Not sure I understand letting Colby bunt with the defenders coming in on him so far........... If you can't keep the defenders back then a bunt will hardly ever work.

[Farmersfan]

You make even me want to call you negative Phil! :)

[eagleqb_14]

woooohoooooo!!!! 3-2 rangers!!!

[lbjacj]

NOoooo
Not Napoli!

how is he walking after that??

[eagleqb_14]

oh goodness:( nap:(

[Farmersfan]

That was ugly. Anyone who thinks Nap isn't a stud should watch that slo-mo.

[lbjacj]

Rangers leaving runs on the bases.

[Phil C]

Unfortunately we didn't take enough advantage and get some more runs. DOOMED! :(

[Farmersfan]

Big mistake by Colby! Followed up with a walk.

[lbjacj]

What's up with all the errors?

2 on each team !

[Farmersfan]

Suddenly the strike zone has shrunk for this ump! What gives?

[STANG RED]

I know we see it all the time, but I've never understood how it's allowed for a runner to take out the short stop of 2nd baseman, that far off the base path.

[eagleqb_14]

3-3 lets go rangers!!!!!! We believe!!!!! 4:13

[Tin Cup]

Anybody see the sports science about cold weather baseball.

Already way more errors, slipped bats. Makes you wonder lol

[lbjacj]

Unreal!!

[Roughneck93]

Wow!! Cardinals keep giving us breaks! Rangers need to get runs off of these.

[lbjacj]

Here we go!!!

[SintonFan_inAustin]

Washington just pulled a La Russa :mad:

That was :ack!:

[eagleqb_14]

4-3 rangers, what was ron thinking just then?? 2 outs bases loaded brining lewis back in??

[Phil C]

We're ahead but you got to take avantage of opportunities. I am very worried. :(

[Farmersfan]

Karma is a bitch! Leaving runners on base a lot has a way of coming back to bite you. Ask the Cards about game #5

[SintonFan_inAustin]

We're ahead but you got to take avantage of opportunities. I am very worried. :( for once i agree with you PhilC :)

Seems like Jason Garrett trying to play it safe against the Patriots instead of trying to go for the knock out.

[Bullaholic]

Somebody is going to have enlighten me why Wash let a pitcher who has not batted all year go to bat with 2 out and the bases loaded? Why not Torrealba pinch-hitting. I don't think Lewis has been throwing well enough to leave him in.

[Farmersfan]

Washington just trying to force Larussa to pitch to Murphy instead of intentionally walking him to get to Colby. As it turned out Murphy didn't get a hit or but still got walked.....

[lbjacj]

Somebody is going to have enlighten me why Wash let a pitcher who has not batted all year go to bat with 2 out and the bases loaded? Why not Torrealba pinch-hitting. I don't think Lewis has been throwing well enough to leave him in.

I am clueless as well?

[jlwttu]

I think just about anybody off of the bench would have been a better option than letting Colby bat. As Bullaholic said, he isn't pitching well enough to justify leaving him in.

[Tin Cup]

I think you have to pull your pitcher there! It's not like he's mowing them down. He's got 2 innings left at absolute best

[Farmersfan]

Colby is still our best option right now! The other hitters for Texas must get it done better than they did.....

[SintonFan_inAustin]

Colby is still our best option right now! The other hitters for Texas must get it done better than they did.....hopefully it doesn't come down to that part of the game when this game is done.

[ExScoop]

Another error-its going to cost the Rangers yet

[lbjacj]

I can't believe what I'm seeing.

Is it the cold weather?The pressure?

[SintonFan_inAustin]

I can't believe what I'm seeing.

Is it the cold weather?The pressure?its the players

[Farmersfan]

This is not good for my heart! This inning should be OVER!

[STANG RED]

Wow what an ugly game. Besides the errors on the field, you gotta give Washington at least one coaching error as well, maybe two.

[Tin Cup]

I feel bad for the pitchers. Can you imagine what they are thinking about the defense behind them. Sheesh

[Txbroadcaster]

Wow what an ugly game. Besides the errors on the field, you gotta give Washington at least one coaching error as well, maybe two.

why?

All the talk about pulling Lewis..he had shutdown the Cards outside of Berkman..the errors killed him...It is not like a PH is a guarantee of getting a hit( especially the not that good bench for Texas)

[Farmersfan]

Ogando is going to walk the tying run in..............

[lbjacj]

I'm gonna throw up!

[Txbroadcaster]

Nap!!!!!!!!!!

[ExScoop]

Hope Rangers can get out of this inning with only one run allowed-Walks and errors killing them

[Farmersfan]

Napoli is a frickin stud.............

[STANG RED]

why?

All the talk about pulling Lewis..he had shutdown the Cards outside of Berkman..the errors killed him...It is not like a PH is a guarantee of getting a hit( especially the not that good bench for Texas)

No, but it was almost a guarantee that Lewis was NOT going to get a hit. Bases loaded and 2 outs, and knowing you have lots of arms in the bullpen, its an absolute no brainer to put a real hitter up to the plate. NO BRAINER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Farmersfan]

Come on Ogando! Just one more out.......

[ExScoop]

This inning should have been over already

[Farmersfan]

why?

All the talk about pulling Lewis..he had shutdown the Cards outside of Berkman..the errors killed him...It is not like a PH is a guarantee of getting a hit( especially the not that good bench for Texas)


That's right. Torrealba is hitting like less than .100 in the playoffs. And now we see what we get when they bring in Ogando.

[Tejastrue]

Ogando not quite ready for prime time...Come on Rangers....don't let that great play from both Napoli and Beltre go to waste...

[Tin Cup]

If STL wins this series, Ogando is MVP. He just hasn't handled the pressure.

[Txbroadcaster]

No, but it was almost a guarantee that Lewis was NOT going to get a hit. Bases loaded and 2 outs, and knowing you have lots of arms in the bullpen, its an absolute no brainer to put a real hitter up to the plate. NO BRAINER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


disagree big time..Rangers PH in August and play offs are 1-17..I will take Colby and what he has done on the mound over a PH that will most likely do no better.

[Tejastrue]

That's right. Torrealba is hitting like less than .100 in the playoffs. And now we see what we get when they bring in Ogando.

Why would you bring in Torrealba at that point and lose either Napoli or your back up catcher...

[SintonFan_inAustin]

why?

All the talk about pulling Lewis..he had shutdown the Cards outside of Berkman..the errors killed him...It is not like a PH is a guarantee of getting a hit( especially the not that good bench for Texas)He had done his job already, the opportunity was there to get some cushion, the bullpen is suppose to be the strength. He kept him in trying to give him enough innings to get a win and it may just cost them for ignoring the opportunity with the bases loaded.

[lbjacj]

Whew!

[jlwttu]

Brutal inning...thanks Young and Ogando

[SintonFan_inAustin]

disagree big time..Rangers PH in August and play offs are 1-17..I will take Colby and what he has done on the mound over a PH that will most likely do no better.:ack!:

[Txbroadcaster]

If STL wins this series, Ogando is MVP. He just hasn't handled the pressure.

I dont think it is the pressure..he came into some damn big spots in ALCS and shut them down..he just has lost the strike zone after Craig hit his best pitch twice

[eagleqb_14]

crazy inning!!! 4-4... we gotta get a run this inning!!!! we believe!!

[ExScoop]

Got out of it with only one run scored-Need to get the bats going

[Farmersfan]

OK, we got out of that nightmare with minimum damage. Now it's time for the bats to answer. Our big bats are up in this inning. I am calling for 3 runs!

[SintonFan_inAustin]

both teams have kept the other side in it, time to get the lead again and keep it!!

[Tin Cup]

Our first base play has been the worst I've ever seen it. Moreland and Young have stunk it up big time. They have 3 hits and 4 runs. Other than Berkman, they have zero offense so far. Disgusting

[lbjacj]

Beltre!!!!!!!

[SintonFan_inAustin]

Yesssss!!! Beltre!!!

[ExScoop]

Yes-

[jlwttu]

Time for Beltre, Cruz or Napoli to tag one!

[Tejastrue]

Nobody said this was going to be easy... Beltre...yes!!!!

[Roughneck93]

Yes sir Beltre!!

[SintonFan_inAustin]

:clap::clap: CRUZZZZ!

[lbjacj]

Time for Beltre, Cruz or Napoli to tag one!

How bout all three!!!!

[ExScoop]

Back to back -Wow

[Roughneck93]

Back to Back!!!

[Farmersfan]

OK, we got out of that nightmare with minimum damage. Now it's time for the bats to answer. Our big bats are up in this inning. I am calling for 3 runs!



Wink, wink, wink..................:wave:

[jlwttu]

How bout all three!!!!

I can handle that!!!!

[SintonFan_inAustin]

your turn Napoli !!

[Eagle 1]

Big Bats!!!

[eagleqb_14]

wooohooooo! boomstick beltre/cruz!!!!!

[Tejastrue]

Our first base play has been the worst I've ever seen it. Moreland and Young have stunk it up big time. They have 3 hits and 4 runs. Other than Berkman, they have zero offense so far. Disgusting

If we win this tonight you have officially been banned from the celebration...:taunt:

[eagleqb_14]

ian!!!!!! 7-4

[Roughneck93]

Big insurance run right there.

[lbjacj]

9 more outs!

[Tin Cup]

If we win this tonight you have officially been banned from the celebration...:taunt:

Lol it's fact! I am rarely negative but it's totally stunk. I'm about to pass out I'm having so much fun.

[SintonFan_inAustin]

OK, we got out of that nightmare with minimum damage. Now it's time for the bats to answer. Our big bats are up in this inning. I am calling for 3 runs! Good call Tom Greive :clap:

[lbjacj]

six more

[hollywood]

Holland is a stud. Effortless.

[Txbroadcaster]

I am on the verge of throwing up I am so nervous

[Tin Cup]

Holland is a stud. Effortless.

In the zone this series. You can see his confidence. Him and Ogando have traded roles this series.

[Phil C]

Still two more innings and you know the Cardinals have capable batters. Don't celebrate yet.

[hollywood]

Wash has managed a good game tonight. Errors by both teams have kept each other in it.

[SintonFan_inAustin]

only 3 hits for the Cardinals, wow. hadn't noticed they didn't have many hits.

[hollywood]

In the zone this series. You can see his confidence. Him and Ogando have traded roles this series.

Absolutely. Ogando looked like a ball of nerves. Made me nervous.

[Phil C]

OMG! We are going to blow it. :(

[hollywood]

Crap! Just two more outs then Feliz.

[eagleqb_14]

craig guy is good, 7-5

[Farmersfan]

I think Holland got a little careless and Craig nailed him............

[ExScoop]

Don't like these close games-Need some insurance runs in the top of the 9th

[hollywood]

OMG! We are going to blow it. :(

OMG! We are going to do it! :-)

[Farmersfan]

Just 4 more outs!

[Tin Cup]

I think Holland got a little careless and Craig nailed him............

He went after him with a 3 run lead. Perfect baseball Craig just won that time.

[SintonFan_inAustin]

oh crap

[lbjacj]

Pressure

[SintonFan_inAustin]

? easier out at 2nd and through to first

[ExScoop]

I can't watch this

[Phil C]

Poor judgement with an easy out at second. We are going to lose! :(

[SintonFan_inAustin]

Come on Adams! Get out of this jam.

[Farmersfan]

Are you stinkin' kidding me?

[lbjacj]

whew

[eagleqb_14]

whoaaaaaaa!!!!! 3 outs away

[SintonFan_inAustin]

YES!!!! Still looking scary in the bot of the 9th!

[Roughneck93]

Way to go Mike. Need some insurance.

[hollywood]

And, there ya go. Just like that, no pressure. Everyone breath. You like Tacos? I like Tacos.

[IndianFan2012]

Only 3 outs!

[Tin Cup]

Is anyone really surprised? We've NEVER been in this situation ever. It's so hard to get it done. You can't play hold on and get 3 more. You have to go win it for yourself!

[SintonFan_inAustin]

Now Hopefully Feliz doesn't feel the pressure of closing it out and throws strikes in bot of the 9th

[Phil C]

We are three outs away but we need some insurance runs. I am very worried. :(

[Farmersfan]

Motte reminds me of Seth Rogen.................

[Farmersfan]

Motte reminds me of Seth Rogen.................



NO! The hairy singer on American Idol.. What was his name?

[Tin Cup]

NO! The hairy singer on American Idol.. What was his name?

Casey Abrams lol

[SintonFan_inAustin]

K here we go!!

[lbjacj]

K here we go!!

9 K's

[Phil C]

I am worried. Feliz makes me nervous and the Cardinals have their power hitters coming up. We are going to lose. :(

[orange machine]

It all comes down to this.

[eagleqb_14]

3.......

[lbjacj]

2...

[eagleqb_14]

2.......

[ExScoop]

This is too neve racking

[hollywood]

Get Berkman and I'll be more confident.

[Phil C]

Man. Get Feliz out of there. We are going to lose. :(

[Roughneck93]

Feliz and his walks.

[hollywood]

Time for redemption. Double play for the win. I call it now.

[Farmersfan]

Feliz always makes it way harder than it has to be....

[Phil C]

What is Washington doing?! He is letting Feliz blow the game.

[hollywood]

Beltre calling for double play

[SintonFan_inAustin]

YESSSSS!

1 more

[lbjacj]

1...

[eagleqb_14]

[Farmersfan]

I'm dying..............

[hollywood]

[SintonFan_inAustin]

[lbjacj]

nooooooooooooooooo
:

[SintonFan_inAustin]

can't believe it!

[Phil C]

One strike and one out away and we blow it! This series is over. We are lost! :(

[ExScoop]

This game should have been over

[Farmersfan]

Cruz should have had that ball..... Damn it~!

[Roughneck93]

Unbelievable...

[jlwttu]

ugh:ack!:

[SintonFan_inAustin]

get out of this innging. YES! still can win it in game 6 just going to take extra innings

[ExScoop]

I hate extra inning games

[orange machine]

I want to punch something!

[lbjacj]

Still in it!

[Phil C]

We were lucky to go into extra innings but I think we have blown the series.

[hollywood]

Well hit ball by Frees, BUT Cruz should have had that one. On to 10 we go. Okay, admit, I've got butterflies now.

[eagleqb_14]

:( we gotta score here

[lbjacj]

Broke my keyboARD

[Phil C]

I wish Washington had let Mike pitch the last inning. Good grief.

[Saggy Aggie]

i laughed

[ExScoop]

Wow a big one

[lbjacj]

Wowwww

[Farmersfan]

yes, yes yes yes yes yes .

[hollywood]

Hamilton!!!!

[Roughneck93]

Lol, Josh Hamilton!

[eagleqb_14]

josh hamiltonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

[Saggy Aggie]

damn. not laughing anymore

[Tin Cup]

Nice timing HAMBONE!!!

[hollywood]

Just get on base Beltre... Let Cruz bang you in.

[lbjacj]

3...

[ExScoop]

Lets hold this lead-3 more outs and go home back to Texas

[SintonFan_inAustin]

HERE WE GO AGAIN!!! 3 outs to a championship

[orange machine]

Holy crap please let's get out of this.

[Farmersfan]

Oliver? Oh Lord help us! Just 3 easy outs.....

[Eagle 1]

Lets go Rangers, saw their legs off and and let's finish this thing!

[Tejastrue]

I'm dyin here!!!!! Lets get 3 up and down this time....Pleeeeease!!!

[Phil C]

Josh came through but will out pitching and defense hold them. I hope so but I am nervous - especially if Feliz is pitching.

[lbjacj]

I have to get up in 5 hours!! I'll never get to sleep after this.

[SintonFan_inAustin]

oh no here we go again

[Phil C]

Good grief! A bad start! Our pitchers are trying to lose this for us. We need Mike in there. :(

[ExScoop]

Maybe two runs wasn't enought in the top of the 10th-No lead seems to be safe

[lbjacj]

It's always dramatic getting the last 3 outs!

[Roughneck93]

Just can't be easy.

[hollywood]

Oliver... What the heck!!

[orange machine]

What the heck is going on?

[Farmersfan]

I kind of figured. Frickin' Oliver!

[ExScoop]

This game is tearing my nerves to pieces

[hollywood]

I have to get up in 5 hours!! I'll never get to sleep after this.

Lol, I've got to run 14 miles at 4am.

[Phil C]

Runners on second and third with one out. We are in trouble.

[ExScoop]

Can't afforf to blow alll these lead

[lbjacj]

I can't take it.Good night all.

[orange machine]

This is so ridiculous!

[Phil C]

Pujos is coming up. We are going to lose tonight. :(

[BaseballUmp]

Lol, I've got to run 14 miles at 4am.
I've gotta be up by Saturday morning around 9 to go tailgate lol

[Farmersfan]

Yea, Get Oliver out of there. Feldman will clean up.

[orange machine]

Why is this happening?

[ExScoop]

Intenional Walk

[Farmersfan]

Walk Pujols and Berkman...............?????

[Phil C]

One out away ahead by one run but great power coming up. I am worried. :(

[Phil C]

Good grief! :(

Twice with one strike away and we blow it.

[IndianFan2012]

My heart is leaping out of my chest.

[orange machine]

Wow you got to be kidding

[ExScoop]

Where's the relief pitching

[SintonFan_inAustin]

Here we go again++++++

[ExScoop]

I don't if my heart can take another inning

[orange machine]

I really don't know what to say.

[Tejastrue]

In frickn-credible...

[Txbroadcaster]

I love and hate baseball LOL

[Phil C]

We better keep getting runs. We need to win tonight. Tomorrow Carpenter pitches. I am worried.

[Saggy Aggie]

We better keep getting runs. We need to win tonight. Tomorrow Carpenter pitches. I am worried. i laughed again

[Tin Cup]

Ok 17 run inning here for the Rangers. Maybe the lead will be safe.

[Farmersfan]

The problem is now the Cardinal hitters are hitting everything our pitchers throw. ALL THE CARDINAL HITTERS!

[Phil C]

Our batters did the job but our relief pitchers blew it. :(

[Saggy Aggie]

that they did, phil. scary times indeed.

[BaseballUmp]

Pancho is probably spitting seeds and sitting on the edge of his rocker right now lol

[Farmersfan]

What the hell is Wash thinking????? That was stupid. Feldman is the only chance we have left to win this game.

[Phil C]

Washington got outcoached in the later innings tonight. A blown opportunity. I wish he had let Mike pitch the ninth inning. We would be celebrated. Now another missed opportunity by a Texas team to be champions. I expect the Cardinals to get the win this inning. :(

[SintonFan_inAustin]

its Romo fault



lol

[Tin Cup]

What the hell is Wash thinking????? That was stupid. Feldman is the only chance we have left to win this game.

He couldn't do his job either. Who cares what you do if your wash. Just get the dang out and we aren't saying anything.

[hollywood]

Rangers are puckering up right now and it's getting me too!

[Roughneck93]

And now Cruz is hurt too?!

[SintonFan_inAustin]

:1popcorn:

[SintonFan_inAustin]

Well i wont see most of the game, football friday!

[ExScoop]

Dam-No relife pitching

[hollywood]

Knew it!! I was typing how much you wanna bet Freese hrs a walk off! Crap! No Friday night lights for me tomorrow. I'll be glued to the tube.

[Old Tiger]

fast ball down the middle....terrible pitch.




this was definitely tight butt-hole game.

[ExScoop]

I can watch Friday's game-Have to cover a dam football game in Boling

[orange machine]

Nelson is done and so are the Rangers. Bullpen you sucked

[jlwttu]

I don't know what to say. Now they get to play game 7 with a toasted bullpen (in more ways than one). Hope Harrison has it.

[hollywood]

fast ball down the middle....terrible pitch.




this was definitely tight butt-hole game.

Lol very much so

[Tejastrue]

Damn that hurt...what has been our strength took on the chin tonight...Fortunately there is a game 7...:clap:

[SintonFan_inAustin]

Damn that hurt...what has been our strength took on the chin tonight...Fortunately there is a game 7...:clap:yep. I still think Rangers will win it, its just going to take the full games to get it.

[Saggy Aggie]

i laughed

[Tin Cup]

Feliz has done this every game. Just got away with it. Time to show the world what you have on the inside. I'm done with game 6. If we can't get over this, we already lost tomorrow.

Besides, I said Rangers in 7

[Tejastrue]

Feliz has done this every game. Just got away with it. Time to show the world what you have on the inside. I'm done with game 6. If we can't get over this, we already lost tomorrow.

Yep, gotta put your behind...in the past...

[Old Tiger]

Why is La Russa dressed in a towel like a victim from a cop tv show? lol

[orange machine]

I wouldn't let Feliz anywhere near the mound.

[bobcat1]

IMO.............Biggest error was taking out Holland. Should have taken error making Michael Young off first sooner. Elvis throwing to first instead of the short way to 2nd and Cruz giving up on that ball were more loser plays.

[eagles_victory]

Just don't get everyone blaming Ron. If your shut down closer doesn't get the save that is on him not Ron.

[ExScoop]

This was a very disappoing loss-Pitching couldn't get the job done and game should have been over after 9innings

Staff blew two run leads-Offenes did it's part

Not lookng forward to tonight's game. I'll be covering a football game between Boling and Bloomington. At least I have XM radio in the car to listen on the way back.

I' don't feel real confident that the Rangers can bounce back with a in-They desever to be the World Champions, not St. Louis
