1-0-0-1-0-0-1 Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 It feels weird as an Islanders fan to say "Let's go Rangers," but this is baseball so LET'S GO RANGERS!!! 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like they're pulling for Houston. There are times where they sound like they don't know the Astros are down by 8 f**king runs. You can hear the bias in their voices. They're pulling for the Astros. Edited October 24, 2023 by Principled Man 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

liquidcrystalcompass Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 What a great night. I had a house full last night with a lot of food and drinks. I'm too old for this shit. I'm so damn hungover. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t get that sense at all. They sounded genuinely impressed that the Rangers didn’t buckle after the collapse in game 5. I’m just happy because this saves me from having to pull for Philadelphia in World Series. I love Kyle Schwarber but hate Bryce Harper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goose Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 DBacks get an early lead till Bohm takes a first pitch deep to tie it. This has the makings of a great game 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Rangers need to score their runs early, can't count on scoring a lot against the Dbacks bullpen, though they've done pretty well against some good bullpens so far in these playoffs. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rangers were going to be at a pitching disadvantage against either team. We need Scherzer and Gray to come around in the worst way. Unless Garcia can stay pissed for four more games. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weakly Criminal Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 For those of you not too familiar with the Rangers lineup, you may want to keep an eye on rookies Evan Carter who is really cute and a nice rally starter at the plate and on the bases, and Josh Jung who has rounded into the very archetype of third baseman. (see what I did there?) The first time for two wildcards to meet in The Fall Classic should make for an interesting and entertaining series. The owner of this team, the GM, and five of the players are Texans and that would make a title even more meaningful. Who says Texas aint baseball country? Viva Rangers!!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
