7 IP 4H 2 ER. Second good outing in a row for him. Hopefully the pen can hold a 6-2 lead.

Villanueva has been a pleasant surprise thus far. So has Samardzija really and the whole staff. It's that anemic offense that I worry about.

Starting pitching hasn't been bad at all. Offense and the bullpen have killed them.

My dad just texted me and bet "a bajillion dollars" that the Rangers would comeback and win.

Would like to see Rizzo hit something besides a HR this year though. I know he'll come around...

He's already had a couple of huge clutch hits this year. Dude is in a really bad funk right now and still has 4 bombs and 11 RBIs. He'll be fine.

That GlenAllen Hill bomb was incredible. I was watching that game. I was pretty young at the time, but that was the longest homerun I have ever seen. He didn't even take a full swing lol.

Here comes the bullpen. I feel good about James Russell here, but who the hell is going to pitch the 9th???
