Holy shit Martinez looks bad. He looks like he just wants to get off the field as quickly as he can.

That was a horrible AB for Martinez. I don't mind guys swinging at the first pitch as long as it's something they can really handle. That pitch wasn't.

They're trying to boost his confidence. "We still believe in you!" But at this rate, it won't last long.

I believe there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing AstroTurf and the designated hitter. I believe in the sweet spot, soft-core pornography, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas Eve and I believe in long, slow, deep, torture of Bud Selig.

For some reason I thought it was glass.

The "Glass Boot Series" doesn't sound very Texan-like.

I believe he lost it when he slid his hand up Brown's wife's skirt.

Depends on whether Mr. or Mrs. Brown was doing the voting I'd imagine...  FWIW, she is evidently pretty consistent in her choice of guys... Both were pretty storied hitters I understand...

Brownie (or Lucas) were just saying it was 'Pewter' now, and that it used to be glass.

They've been calling it the "Silver Boot" all week. "Pewter Boot Series" sounds worse than than "Glass Boot".

Mills' postgame: Lopey, Barney.

At least he doesn't say Happy.

Nice job by Happ. I would of bet big against the proposition that there would be a shutout and Happ and Abad would throw seven of the nine innings.

No one is happier for Happ and Abad or more surprised than me.

The matchup has always been called the Silver Boot.  The actual trophy is a boot that used to be glass, but is now pewter.

Given the Rangers' past issues on their roster, staying away from a tall glass trophy is probably wise.
