Rangers playoff trivia
« on: October 09, 2010, 11:04:44 am »
ESPN's bottom line is claiming that the Rangers are the only MLB franchise never to win a postseason series.  Is this true?  When did the Expos/Nats do it?

Was it in 81? They got in by winning one of the 2 season halves.
Unga bungaed by the BBGs.

When did the Mariners do it?

Seattle's won two series in the past 10 years, 3 total.

Expo's won the NLDS in 81.

In the end, my dissolution with the game of baseball will not be a result of any loss of love for the game, rather from the realization that I can no longer bear the anger its supposed stewards cause to be built up in my soul. -Lee (01/08/2013)
