More walks. The only reason walks didn't bury the Astros over the weekend is that the rangers are a shitty team.

His route to that ball reminded me of a guy when I was in high school that could and would long toss a knuckleball. No joke, he would throw it 30 feet in the air from 150 feet away and it would look like it changed directions about 7 times. I have no idea how he could do that

Nice inning from Giles for the save.

Career high 5 rbi for Gattis.

Lance went 7, not a lot of Ks or ground balls but he adjusted and got em out with flyballs.

Hopefully the twisty Reddick catch in right and Springer ridiculing him with make some highlight videos.

It's worth a gander when you get to a computer.

When Reddick had a non-eventful catch later in the game Springer was chirping at him. Reddick gave the 2-outs sign to Springer with an 'up yours' motion.

I have to think Reddick has played RF in that dump as much as anyone has. Wind must have really been swirling.
