Rangers in a pitching duel with with Joe Saunders on the mound. No, I'm not joking, really, Joe Saunders was in a pitching duel.
Glass Half Empty / Afternoon Cloud: Rangers managed only 1 run.
Glass Half Full / Silver Lining: 1 run was all they needed tonight versus the Twins. Leonys Martin stole second and Sardinas (who was playing SS after Elvis was ejected) knocked him in in the top of 7th.
Saunders went 5 and looked good after a shaky start. And then Soria came in for a quick 1, 2, 3 save in the 9th. Boom. Rangers win 1-0.
Thoughts / Observations / Sidenotes: Rangers can win the series if they can win the getaway day game versus the Twins tomorrow.

We did win that getaway game (btw, the tradition is pretty stupid - yes, the team gets an extra 5 hour start - but the price is that no one can watch the games) - but back to the point - another gutty performance. The team is battling and into it - and somehow not discouraged despite 100000000000 injuries. I am beginning to get some hope - yes, I said it - problem is that hope can be dangerous.
Somehow the below does not make me feel any better....
