G123: Rangers look sad in 7-0 loss, drop below .500 again

Posted by on at http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/gameday/index.jsp?gid=2008_08_15_tbamlb_texmlb_1&mode=wrap>MLB.com Recap

After our playoff hopes effectively died in Boston, we limped home, hoping that Kevin Millwood’s return from the DL would make a change, coupled with being at home.
Nope.
They were just as bad as they were on the road. Well… It’s not totally our fault. Matt Garza pitched a whale of a game. A complete game, 119 pitch, two hit shutout of Texas. It probably should have been just one hit, there was a play by the centerfielder that I thought should have been an error. At the minimum it was a rather rough call for the official scorer. Yeah, we have a few guys who can hit, but anyone knows you can be totally shut down by a pitching performance like that.
This makes two consecutive games we were shut out. 7-0 this game, and 10-0 in Boston. To add extra flavor that thought, the last home game before this one was a 3-0 loss to the Yankees, as well. :(
It feels like April again.

Anyone who has been watching my site for awhile has seen this graphic before. However, I think it’s time to update it for the 2008 season. I would like to think this applies. While you’re at it, take a listen to this wav file from the Simpsons. It too applies.

No time to write about this game, got too busy with other projects.

Bit tied up

I’m a bit busy at the moment, and don’t even have time to handle the smallest of updates. Will catch up in a few days.
That thing in Boston last night. Holy crap!

G118: Rangers still not in Baltimore apparently; lose 9-0

Nope, I think the team still didn’t find it’s way to Baltimore, and the same imposters that were playing in their uniforms were out at Camden Yards getting mashed by the Orioles on Saturday night.
Unconfirmed rumors that the team was at the Aquarium in the Inner Harbor at game time could not be confirmed.

G117: Rangers still apparently in TX during 9-1 loss in Baltimore

I’m not sure exactly what time the Rangers’ charter plane took off from the Metroplex on Thursday night for their destination in Baltimore, but apparently, the Texas Rangers team wasn’t on it. Oh, some guys were in Oriole Park wearing the Rangers’ uniform, but the actual team did not appear to be there. Whoever was wearing the uniforms were lethargic, they didn’t pitch well, and just generally looked like they were half asleep.
The guys wearing the Rangers’ uniforms got just six hits against Jeremy Guthrie. Two were by the guy wearing #22. The lone run was from the imposter wearing “Metcalf” on his back. Not much to talk about offensively here at all.
Pitching wise – We got bad outings by the guys wearing #46 & #57. The third guy who happened to be wearing #60 wasn’t all that great, either, but nowhere near as bad as 46 & 57.
Blah. Hopefully the Rangers can make the secondary flight and be there in time for Saturday’s game. They certainly weren’t there for Friday’s game.
