The fat lady is getting ready to sing her song, but the Rangers are trying to stuff her back into a suitcase bound for San Francisco, but they have to win game #5 tonight in Texas.
What happened to the hitting on the Texas ball club? They are looking like the White Sox, with no clutch bats or timely base running. On Halloween evening in Texas last night, there were two guys dressed like former Presidents, and former pitcher dressed like the president of the Rangers, and all three weren’t able to help Tommy Hunter stop the train marked San Francisco. Renteria looks like he stepped back a half a decade and found his old self. Madison Baumgartner pitched the biggest game of his life, and looked like Nolan Ryan, striking out Rangers like a bowling ball hitting the pins straight on.
The Giants are now up 3 games to 1 and are about to pull off their first World Series victory since their jerseys said New York on them. Texas is going to have to win three in a row starting with Cliff Lee on the mound tonight against Tim Lincecum, which can be done with a little help from the bats of Josh Hamilton and Nelson Cruz. If Lee can bounce back from his poor game one outing, the Rangers have a good chance to go back to the bay and win two.
Here’s hoping the Rangers win tonight and extend this baseball season to at least November 3rd. The game is on FOX tonight at 7:00PM. Let’s root, root, root for the home team.
