Arizona gets out the inning giving up only 1 run. 1-0 Texas going to bottom of 7th. Zac Gallen went 6 innings of no hit ball and then got snakebit.

Rangers win 5-0. No team has ever gone 11-0 on the road in postseason like Texas did. Texas is a team of destiny this year.

They were truly a team, you did not hear "I" or "me" but you hear about the "Next man up." Pretty inspiring.

You are spot on. No one could have thought 11-0 on the road was possible.
There are many people who think baseball is too slow and not intense enough for fans. For me there are literally dozens and dozens of times in a game where the tension and nerves are tingling. An inch or two here and there is all it takes to change the momentum of a game. This series, while it looked like a Ranger domination at 4-1 was very nerve wracking. Baseball can be as exciting as the best of sports.

Rangers Parade underway on Friday around 12:00 pm on Bally Sports, channel 38 on Optimum. Huge crowd. Looks amazing, crowd just estimated at over 250,000 fans. Chris Young, the V.P. General Manager, was the Rookie of the Year in the Ivy League at Princeton his freshman year in TWO sports, baseball and basketball. His went to school at Highland Park in Dallas. Maybe the Cowboys could work out a co-op deal for him in football. He put the talent together. Oh, and he played for the Rangers early on.

I attended my first Ranger game in 1972 shortly after they moved from Washington. It may have been opening day, but I don’t remember. So after 51 years of frustration, here we are. Very exciting.
