Odor homered and tripled and it wasn't enough to beat the Chicago White Sox yet again.

Odor homered and tripled and it wasn’t enough to beat the Chicago White Sox yet again.

 

Last night the Rangers played their fourth extra inning game of the year.

They are now 0-4 in those games.

They have not yet scored a single run in extra innings.

The team that prides itself on Never Ever Quitting doesn’t work overtime.

They are the government workers of the baseball world. Nine to five and not a minute later.

They made a valiant effort to tie it in the eighth. Blow it in the ninth. And re-tie it in the ninth.

Trouble was, they had to go past the regulation nine innings.
