Another thing from that 1st game - it looks like Gabbard is starting to be a pretty good pickup as a rotation guy. The Rangers just may have given it to someone on a trade for a change instead of getting bent over like usual.
Well, Sammy gets a single. At least now we know the Rangers won't get no-hit after scoring 30 runs.

Not to mention that Murphy has been awesome every game he has played as a Ranger. Beltre got promoted from rookie to a-short season and has been pounding it out pretty well.
Oh, and all three are under Ranger control for awhile. Not bad for a two-month rental.
Rangers need 4 more runs to set the all time record for runs scored by one team in a single day...the Cubs hold the record with 36...which is also the all time record for most runs scred in a game by one team....and the game they did that in was the last time a team scored 30 runs in a game...that game in 1897 mentioned earlier.
I don't know what's more amazing...30 runs in a game...
Or back when I was a kid and Toby Harrah played both ends of a double header at SS and didn't record a single assist or PO....
Hmmmm...the Cubs went onto be the all time leader in WS wins after that...
Whats amazing is the Rangers on your fantasy team didn't get much out of 30 runs
You tell me the Rangers score 30 runs in a single game, I would bet cash money that Michael Young had at least 4 rbi out of that.
I know...he didn't even have one RBI. It was the 4-9 hitters that did all that damage.
What's really amazing is that they were scoreless in that game until the 5th inning I think. Holy cow.
What the did the Rangers eat for breakfast? Wow!
Whew...I had to check that boxscore to make sure my Orioles reliever wasn't a part of that nuking. That would have sucked.
The Funniest part....
TEXAS RANGERS
Runs Scored - Runs Against
616-652
And that's AFTER the 30-3!!!
I wish that would have tatooed the Yanks even half as bad at least once this year.
That would be the big reason they aren't in the PO race. Recently they have pitched well fairly consistently but haven't gotten any consistent offense at all.
They saved their offense over the past 3 weeks for today.
I remember the days when I was proud to be an Orioles fan, because my team always had great pitching.
Damn, that was a looooooonnnnnnggggg time ago.
Still 15 or so under .500. Zippity do da, zippity A.
Bedard is a freaking stud but holy cow that bullpen is a mess.
Yeah just laugh it up guys!!! I'll take it.
the funny thing is, just yesterday a couple hours before the game, local radio guys on The Ticket in Dallas were blasting hitting coach Rudy Jaramillo and calling for him to be fired, and talking about how this team is completely inept at hitting on the road.......and then this happens.
was it Bad Radio? There's an entry on Bob's blog about how Rudy blows.

Evan Grant is on ESPN2 right now talking about it.

I listened to that
Great timing.
I wonder if this can be counted as part of the BaD radio curse. Because they DO have some valid points about why Rudy is an incredibly overrated hitting coach......and for them to rightfully call him out just hours before the Rangers set the modern day record for runs scored in a game.....haha i think it's the curse.I listened to that
Great timing.
I believe in 1996, we scored 26 runs on the Orioles in the ballpark. I think that was the year we went to the playoffs. It was around that time. I don't beleive we will see 30-3 again. I think it's far beyond saying that's a football score.
