YIKES!!!
Rangers drop 3 out of 4 to the A's, and the next week could decide the season for this ball club. As bad as the Oakland series was they are only 2 back in the wild card race as the Red Sox are struggling of late, but the surging Rays are only a 1/2 game behind the Rangers now. Big series with the Angels starts tonight and next week the Red Sox are in town for 3 at the ballpark. Fifty-five games remain for the Rangers to make up ground and make one final push for post-season play, all in all i still think this season has been a success. History says if they can go 32-23 over the final 55 they have a great shot of getting to the post-season, only 5 teams have ever won 92 games and not made the playoffs, but of the remaining 55 we have the Angels 10 times, the Rays 6 times, and the Red Sox and Yankees 3 more times each. Should be an interesting finish to a better than expected season from this young team.

DAMN A Rod and his walk off homerun tonight!!...anyways looks like the Rangers decided to bring out the sticks tonight. They needed that after the god awful series with the A's...where were all these hits in the A's series....oh yeah they were going back to learning the basics of the catcher throwing the ball back to the pitcher..Feliz looked good again tonight with that 101 mph fastball
