Indeed! And a series win to boot! Over the stRangers no less, who feasted on us last season. Fuck them. Those series wins have been scarcer than hen's teeth.

Bullpen was terrific, for a change.  Never gave up, chipped away, timely hits.  Those are the kinds of wins that build character.

Exactly right. Glad to see the guys have some fun. Sipp was a heck of a pickup.

The Rangers are in a full tilt headlong panic. If the Astros were inclined to give up Feldman, they could probably get half the franchise.

Not only was it the first series win against the stRangers in a while (had lost 15 straight series before this one), it also put the stRangers at below .500...  Sweet!!!

Sipp was filthy against their lefties.  Hopefully, that will continue.

We were there, and I don't know who you've been watching, but Singleton looked great in the field and better at the plate.  The defense did things right all evening, the base-running was fine, Castro caught a good game, and Feldman struggled but didn't collapse. 

Tuesday night wasn't bad either.

If you were watching Singleton in the field, you musta had a helluva view...all the way to Okie City.

Singleton, Springer, all these players not named Altuve look alike to me.  Altuve looks short.
