Christ, I'm feeling good and I come here and find you all ed up and now I'm partially ed up because of it. GD it!!!
You don't around. Spite the player agents, you send every ing pitcher you have to the bullpen before first pitch. "Don't come back up here. If I need you I'll call down there. Be ready and don't say a in' word to your agent, or wife, or, to me about your agent and your wife. GO-DOWN-THERE!"

I read this book when I was a child. Never forgot it, or, it's plain message. It's le -Junk Ball Pitcher- about a rookie phenom with a 100+ fastball who was destined for greatness. Well, you guessed it, he blew it out and had to become a -Junk Ball Pitcher-...Team doctor: "You can't throw the fast ball again, young man, or, your arm will be, well worthless on and off the field of baseball."
He made himself into a -Junk Ball Pitcher-...until one day in the WS he was called upon to close it. Took the mound and for one shining moment threw that blazer one last time, so, he'd not be known as -Junk Ball Pitcher- The pain was excruciating pitch by pitch. He bit thru the lips, blood pouring from his mouth. The adhesion's built up in his shoulder shuddered and quaked, but 100 mph was achieved again and again, and again.
Lesson? If you want to make President, you in' make President.
-45-
Yup
Then again I expected it with Neftali Feliz on the mound then, even with one strike to go and a two run lead multiple times... I just never trusted that guy, at all.
I dunno, the way Montgomery looked in game 2 against the "lesser bats" of AZ, I wouldn't feel comfortable at all flying home without the World Series trophy tonight.
Ehh, I think the bats are fairly evenly matched (we're still better, but only slightly) once you take out Garcia.
I'm not even comfortable at all with Montgomery in a game 6 -nor- a friendly bullpen vs. enemy starter nightmare scenario game 7.
Tonight is the game the Rangers must win.
Otherwise, this could be 2011 but on lollerskates. Losing up 3-1 in the series to a fringe non-playoff team that wouldn't have made the playoffs most years, arguably a bigger and more epically embarrassing choke job than being up 7-5 with two outs and two strikes in Game 6 up 3-2 against the mighty big bats of the 2011 St Louis Cardinals and choking. Especially after Feliz strike out Ryan Theriot to leadoff the bottom of the 9th inning and we're two quick outs away...ugh..
...And to think Josh Hamilton had won the trophy back for us in the 10th, only to lose in the 11th somehow... ughhhhh.....

yeah...idk, I guess anything can happen but they proved they weren't the choking g0ts of old after coming back from the crushing Game 5 loss against the Astros. I was 100% convinced it was all over after det one tbh
but yeah, if they were to blow this one too I'll start loading the chamber tbh imho
The fat lady is warming up the vocal cords
LET'S MOTHER ING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
Rangers will choke just like I called it in 2011. I swear on my life more than I ever did my Heat that Texas will NOT win tonight nor this series. Dbacks in 7!
Rangers looking tighter than mookie's dress shirt i saaaaiiiidddd
My butthole is sufficiently puckered tbh imo fwiw.
Eovaldi never should've started tonight tbh.
they're not even giving Evo rest, 3 up 3 down every inning
, Gallen has a perfect game going.
atleast they're making him work now
Not anymore. No hitter still in play though
How this game is still 0-0, I have no clue. Feels like the Rangers are getting destroyed.
This is going to Game 7.
Jesus ing Christ, how many bullets can you dodge?
This is the game we really miss Garcia's 'ooga booga' swing tbh
They miss his irrational confidence tbh. This team is playing tighter than the 2007 Mavs, and Garcia would be giving them some 2007 Warriors energy.
Good one
Who would have thought Eovaldi would be shaky and Gallen would be the one pitching the no-hitter through 6. Would have thought the other way around.
How many pitches/innings does Eovaldi have left guys???
