Carter had never played at MMP. They asked him about it and he said that he spent a lot of time wtih Grossman going for a walk-through.

Grossman is a FA after this season and Carter has relegated him to a bench player. Love that they have the type of relationship. Sure Grossman sees the big picture and EC's ability. And sure, Grossman gets bigger Playoff Payouts. Still fun to hear.

First ever game 1 loss for Verlander I thought I heard. 6-1 lifetime after tonight


This can't be true because he was the losing pitcher of game 1 of 2011 ALCS with Detroit. Maybe that stat is with Houston only?


I thought I remembered him getting knocked around that game.
I thought the stat was that he'd won six straight Game 1 starts.

Evan Carter shows up

And he asked the Astros, "why'd you only bring three horses?"

Semien also touched on where they coached him to line up and to be ready to sprint to the corner on balls down the line. Safe to say the tips worked wherever they came from.

Double play against bregsy / garden gnome in bottom of the 8th was the play of the night.

Well, they're Aggies too so…. BAS runs deeper than Aggie sports unfortunately.

Evan Carter is why we won this game. STUD
Loved that double of his so much. Such hustle! And two huge catches in left. You're right, he was the biggest factor tonight. Just keeps delivering.

Well, invested but also had to take care of some family stuff mid game so I missed a couple innings.


Hope everything is good dude.

I'll be nice and just inform you that I've been a fan of the Rangers since the 80s and every Houston fan at A&M I knew turned me off of ever wishing anything but absolutely abysmal failure would come to that town.

When we win in the playoffs, I watch as much post season content as possible. Just to enjoy the win.

Me (Pre-Game): "Sweetie, we're drinking tonight?"
Mrs DA94: "Ok, any particular reason."

DA 94: "I drink tequila for the Rangers."
Mrs DA 94: "Ok, guess we're drinking."

<Mrs DA 94 leaves to pickup dinner cause we don't eat Sammiches>

Mrs DA 94 (on her arrival): "What's the score? I thought you were drinking."
DA 94: "It is 1-0 Rangers. They scored before I could make my marg."

Mrs DA 94: "So, now you're not drinking."
DA 94: "It's baseball. You need to let it flow. If I make a marg and the Asstros score **SMH** it will be all my fault."

All good! That's fair. I stepped back from almost all sports except Aggie Football when my kids were born and younger just because I didn't have enough time in life to follow much of anything else. I ventured back over here late last fall and bookmarked the offseason thread and later this thread. It helped me follow this team without being able to watch 90+% of the games (freaking Bally's).

Ehh, I think the bigger dumbass there was the dude asking such a long question like that, after already asking like three questions before that one.

All good! Being west coast is generally a benefit for game times, but it also means that I have to step away for a bit to get bath time and bedtime done during these ~7 pm CT games.

Interesting that he didn't claim it to be a Rangers fan.

From what I understand you don't know about traveling fans and there weren't very many Rangers fans there.

Probably an upset Asstros fan, if it did happen. And we'd all expect that. Rest assured if it were a Rangers fan, he'd have been all over that.

Multiple posts starting out there with "All good!"

Pretty much sums up the night.

Nobody is white knighting for them. Just try not to stoop to their levels.

Jose LeClerc - Does he remind anyone else of Neftali Feliz back in 2010-2011? Both a little wild at times, but tough to hit. Good closers, but still make your nervous. LeClerc may actually have a little better stuff than Feliz had.

I was getting major Neftali-vibes watching him in the 9th. Neftali probably had slightly better stuff and was definitely more of an easy motion, but it seems like we'll get the same high velocity, high risk-high reward type of 9th innings as we did in 10-11.
