Game 3 goes to the hometown Texas Rangers. This series is looking like a good one now that the American League team has narrowed the gap to 1 game in this best of seven series. Colby lewis was real good through seven innings, letting up just two runs in a 4-2 victory Saturday night. Mitch Moreland provided some fireworks with a big home run off Jonathon Sanchez early on to set the pace. Hamilton got a homer in the fifth and that sealed the deal. Even Juan Uribe couldn’t help the Giants cause going 0-4 with a bad looking strikeout to end the game.
The thing I love about this series is that we are getting a look at some players most people don’t even know about. You don’t have Derek Jeter, you have a Mitch Moreland. You can’t count on Roy Halladay, but Colby Lewis shows he’s got just as good stuff on the ball. You have a bearded wonder by the name of Brian Wilson, instead of Mariano Rivera. That’s what makes this series so interesting. Less big paid, big name dudes, and more everyday players working collectively as a team. Give me this kind of baseball any day, in fact tonight on FOX.
