The Rangers had the bases loaded twice in extra innings last night and did they score?? Nope. David Murphy was the opposite of clutch last night. I tried to warn him via yelling at the TV that the pitcher was going to continue throwing him sliders, but apparently he didn’t get the message.
I had to laugh when speed-demon Gerald Laird thought he could score from third on a sharply hit grounder to the shortstop. He was out by a mile. I believe at one point we had a runner on third with no outs and did we score? Nope.
How did the Rangers finally score? A wild pitch that skipped off home plate and went between the catcher’s legs allowed Catalanotto to score.
If you’re a Rangers fan, you know there is a list of things that the Rangers won’t be good at. Scoring runs isn’t on that list. What’s wrong with my Rangers?
But hey – A win is a win! Especially considering the level of play I’ve seem them play at early this season, I’ll will take a win no matter what fashion it came in.
