Ugh – another loss. It’s really hard to continue to write daily about a team that loses so much, but as I’m a fan, and not actually getting paid for this, I can decide if I don’t want to write. However, I don’t want to be like Dallas Cowboy fans and care only when their team is winning, so I plow on – but it is hard to write about a team that loses so much. :)
I watched the start of this game, feeling that we’d have a good shot at winning – because Doug Davis, our most reliable pitcher lately was on the mound. IN the start of the game it went pretty good, but in typical Ranger fashion they wore us down, but it again didn’t feel like we got blown away, you’re watching the game and you go, “just when did we lose this game”? I stopped watching for awhile, and then tuned back in, and we had taken the lead, but gave it back up again. Methinks there will be major changes in the bullpen during the offseason.

I don’t have the time to write commentary for this game either, as I’m still working on the big project at work today. However, it was another Ranger loss – there’s too many of them this year. 68 is about what you should have for an entire season, not your total at Aug 14th.

I’m back. First off, let me say that I was away on vacation from Aug 3rd to August 10th. I decided not to cover the games from that time, as well as the Indians series at home due to the fact that I wanted a break. Since returning, I’ve been obscenely busy (working a 20 hr day, and a 16 hour day back to back), and I felt I didn’t have the time to go back and update these games.
Because of that, I have no actual commentary for this game either – as I was up at work, and couldn’t pay attention to the game. I had it on, but I couldn’t really listen to it, because I had so much going on at the time.

Oh my!
Day games are tough for me, because I have to work, so I can’t always pay attention. TOday was no exception. However, I caught enough of it – what a blastfest! Four home runs to answer the Yanks 5 last night. We had 18 hits, they only had four. What a thumping!
Kapler had his first home run since June 21st, and overall, our offense was clicking very well. I wish I could have watched it on TV. :)
We won a series in NY for the first time since 1993 – it was really nice to see them win up in New York. Hopefully when we get back to the playoffs, we don’t have such a problem up here.

I didn’t get to hear much of this one, as I was busy prepping for a vacation – plus it wasn’t on TV.
This one can be summed up in a bad performance by Rob Bell – giving up 5 home runs – not good. Surprisingly, we didn’t lie down and die – we made an effort of it late, after we were down 8-1, but not enough of a comeback.
