Last Step to the Series

With the Rangers coming home with a 3 to 2 lead in in AL championship series with the Yankees, fans all over the metroplex will be on the edge of their seats watching every pitch tomorrow. For the Rangers to win the series they need to remember what got them there which is timely hitting, smart base running and solid pitching. The Yankees won't give up without a fight so for the Rangers to win tomorrow the hitters need to be patient and not swing at pitches outside the strike zone. The Yankee bullpen has looked vulnerable and the Rangers need to work the pitch count and force Yankee Pitcher Phil Hughes to throw pitches over the the mid portion of the strike zone. The Ranger defense cannot afford to make any errors and what would also help would be a spectacular defensive play. These type of games can turn on either an error or a great defensive play so the Rangers infield and outfield will need to be at their best.
Note to all Ranger fans in the first two rows on the first and third base line. If a Yankee hits a pop foul and you see it is coming toward you, don't try to catch it!! Every out is important and we don't want a Steve Bartman moment to come to Arlington. Support your Rangers and let them make the catch. If the Rangers are at their best they can defeat the Yankees so let's hope Ranger fans can celebrate the Rangers going forward to the World Series for the first time in franchise history.

GO RANGERS!!!!!!!!!!
