Now 4-1 Rangers Chirinos just hit a 2 run HR with Odor on base via HBP... :)

“Many of the guys who sucked at organized sports and stopped playing at younger ages wrongly believe they are better than high-level female athletes in those sports,” Edward Kian said. “You see and hear this in the gym regularly, and it is laughably pathetic.”

Gallardo through 4 full and only 59 pitches.

Looks like Gallardo is about done Maddox out to talk to him 4-2 Rangers...

Kela is up in the bullpen...

Donaldson out of the game Carrera PH for him...

But even as Mendoza’s experience is hailed by her colleagues, critics still question whether her experience in softball is enough.

ROTFLMAO... They obviously have no clue what softball is all about and how it relates to the "little white ball game"... LOL...:)

Apparently Odor's knee hit him in the head.

So a key player out for both teams.

With Kela coming in for the 6th, wonder what Banny has in store the rest of the way? He announced Perez for game 3. So perhaps Colby or Holland comes out of the pen today? I heard a rumor that this was the case.

That was a rocketship was outta here in the blink of an eye, obviously he was looking for an inside pitch... YA THINK!!! LOL...

Diekman does the 7th in 6 pitches so he'll probably do the 8th now. First pitch was 99 MPH, my guess his adrenaline level is up there, 6 outs to go!!!

Diekman just blew through Russell Martin and the bottom of the order. 7th in the books Rangers 5-3.

If all goes to plan, we should see Dyson come in to face the top of the order.

Why use him let Diekman go another inning if he can, save Dyson for 9th and let Tolleson rest...

Diekman back out for the 8th, good job Banny...

Diekman gets thru the 8th in 10 pitches, still 5-3 Rangers...

Bautista just got pulled from the game I would say it's a cramp... (UPDATE) Looks like he tweaked his hammy...

Bottom of the 9th still 5-3 and Dyson is pitching for the Rangers, Venable in for Hamilton, Stubbs came in for DD last inning and Moreland in for Napoli...

Donaldson passed concussion protocols could be back tomorrow...

Well work done:)

The plan is going as intended the RHers shut the Jays down and won game 1 5-3. Bottom of the order got the job done for the Rangers they gave price fits, glad they gave him 11 days rest but don't think it really made any difference they have his number...

Bad news. Beltre taken out of the game. Alberto now playing third and batting third.

Too bad Joey isn't on the roster this would be a good place for him since the next 3 games should be against RHers...

Got home in time to see last two outs. 5-3 final. Awesome.

Beltre's MRI showed no structural damage. Good news. A nice massage and heat wrap tonight should have him back.

RHP Marcus Stroman, who returned from a torn left knee ligament to go 4-0 with a 1.67 ERA in four September starts, starts for the Blue Jays on Friday. Texas starts LHP Cole Hamels, who is 7-1 with a 3.66 ERA in 12 starts with the Rangers. Texas has won each of the past 10 games started by Hamels.

On tap for todays game...

No info yet on yesterdays injuries status for today. I expect Beltre to miss today at a minimum and maybe Thursday, I know when I have a back issue it takes about 3 days for it to clear up and about 5-6 days before I can run. With the resources he has possibly shorter recovery time, he took a cortisone injection last night, MRI came back negative. On top of that they flew in Joey and Lucas from Arizona fall league just in case, if one of them are used then Beltre would also have to miss the ALCS if they advance...

As far as Bautista and Donaldson goes I would expect them both to be back. But with "possible" concussion they might hold Donaldson out as a precautionary measure. Hopefully the Jays don't know my "secret remedy" for hamstring ailments and Bautista misses another game... :) Seriously though I expect him to be massaged and wrapped up tight and play todays game...

Well I have to admit...My first impression of a 'girl' calling a 'boy's' game and then the comment on how she looks. Yes, I have to say I was quite ugly and give the young lady my apologies (if she is smart like Banny and views our comments here) and welcome her aboard.

Did you go through some of those links to other articles? Well I did and found out that Dyson was signed by the Blue Jays and came up through their farm system. He had health concerns a few years back and lost him through waivers, and now is coming back to haunt them...

The source I was getting the game from on my phone wasn't showing certain happenings like the error Alberto made that lead to 2 of those runs. If I had known that little tidbit I would have kept my mouth shut, well maybe... :)

And it all worked out in the end with Alberto redeeming himself by driving in the winning run with a borrowed bat. "Yunguns" doing the job the old guys can't seem to do, Fielder, Choo, Andrus, Moreland and Hamilton haveall of 3 hits between them in 2 games. Don't know if it's just them being uptight or Beltre being out has got the lineup screwed up, allowing the others to be pitched around in certain situations...

BP 7 scoreless innings. 9 Ks

No way that would have happened earlier in the year, 7 innings would have yielded at least 10 runs...

Long game both BPs got a workout Rangers used 6 pitchers and Jays used 8. Key to Game 3 might be which starter lasts the longest before the call goes out to the pen...

I would really love to know what was said between Kela and Donaldson in the 13th??? Good to see he has an attitude like Rougies... :)

Game 3 starter is still to be Perez as far as I know so here is his stats against the Jays, not really much to go on...
