For fans who love offense, last night’s game provided that. Texas hit five home runs. Marcus Semien hit two. Sam Huff, Adolis Garcia and Nathanial Lowe hit one each. For fans who love epic battles, last night’s game provided that as well. The Rangers were down 2-0. Up 4-2. Down […]
Do you wake up always tired? Tired of the Rangers losing? Do you have trouble remembering things? Things like, “Did the Rangers lose just one game yesterday or were they swept in a double header?” Do you suffer from brain fog? Are things always unclear, like why you became a […]
Slowly but surely, Rangers fans are seeing the promise of Josh Jung. He burst into Rangers’ lore by hitting a home run, at home, in his first major league at-bat. Yes, he strikes out more than you’d want. Even more than he’d want. And, yes, he had a pesky hitless […]
Just one month again, on Friday, August 26, the Texas Rangers beat the Detroit Tigers 7-6. At one point, they had a 7-2 lead in that game but their bullpen and their defense couldn’t let that stand without some monumental struggle. In the end, the Rangers pulled out that game. […]

Babe. Mickey. Willie. Junior. Hank. Albert. You know you are an icon when people know you by one name. Last night, Albert Pujols became Albert. He hit two home runs to reach the magical, unfathomable, historic number 700. Babe and Hank were the only two other players to have ever […]
It would be nice if the Rangers owners watched last night’s game. They would have learned a very important lesson. Winning is fun. Fans like it when your team wins. It’s easy, and fun sport, to blame the past six seasons on Jon Daniels. And you would be right to […]
As the Rangers brace for the final few weeks of their stretch drive to the offseason, they made a significant roster move yesterday, signing veteran catcher Kevin Plawecki to a major league contract.

No outs. Runners at first and second. Three runs had already come across to turn a 2-2 tie into a 5-2 Angels lead. Rangers’ lefty reliever John King was on the mound. He let a fastball fly. It’s hit sharply to Josh Jung at third. He steps on the bag. […]
