#StraightUpTX
Imagine winning the division and proceeding to harass one of our reporters to the point she would rather delete her account then have to see that bs. Houston you should be ashamed of yourself.
As much fun as this has been, I think it would be in both ours and the Dbacks best interest to give our spots to the Astros and Braves, while we defeated everyone in our path, it’s unfair to rob these large market teams of their rightful spot in the World Series!
#GoAndTakeIt
Rangers have won 13 of 16 games against the three worst teams in baseball this year in the A’s, Royals and Rockies. They are 36-33 vs. the rest of MLB over that span.
Dane Dunning so far this season:
— 15.1 IP
— 0 ERA
— 8 Hits
— 0.7174 WHIP
— 9 Ks 3 BB
He’s been elite in the long relief role, something the Rangers have needed as despite the starters making brilliant starts, they have struggled to reach the late innings.
