The Stars Will Fight, Big Series Tonight, Deep In The Heart Of Texas.
For the first time in history, the Rangers won a playoff series and are poised to take on the Mighty Yankees from New York for a chance to get the top spot in the American League. No Cliff Lee this game for Texas, so you better swing the bats against C.C. Sabathia if you want to get a chance to score some runs. Josh Hamilton and his Rangers are going to have the biggest battle of their careers tonight in Arlington, especially since they haven’t won a playoff game at home. The trick is going to be the task of stopping the Yankees bats and experience. Ron Washington has his team running and creating havoc on the base paths against their opponents, so the Rangers also have to get on base to make some magic happen.
Joe Girardi and his New York team are defending their title, and have the gusto to do so. Seeing is believing though, and I think Texas has a good chance in a 7 game series against them. What a wonderful world series it would be if America could watch two new teams this year in the fall classic.
The big story is Alex Rodriguez going back to the place that he wanted out of so bad because they weren’t competitive. That’s because they had no money left after they signed him. A-Rod got out of there and went to New York and lived his moment last year. Let’s hope this Texas team can now come in and sting him.
My heart says Texas, my brain says New York. Look for the Yankees winning the series in 6 games.
All ALCS games our on TBS this year, so happy baseball watching. We’ll cover the NLCS tomorrow.
Here’s to the wine, here’s to the glass, and here’s to the girl with a wide flat ass. Sorry Cameron Diaz.
