The walk-off win Monday afternoon was amazing. After being
no-hit for the first 2/3 of the game, it was nice to see the Rangers
(specifically, Nelson Cruz, Vlad and Salty) get things together to get the
notch in the W column. And, Scott Feldman looked really good, giving up 3 runs in 7 innings of work. He has proved himself worthy, over the last two years, of the Opening Day nod, and the leader of this rotation.

I always hate it when there’s an off-day after Opening Day.
It makes the wait that much more intense. After waiting an entire off-season
for baseball, I have to wait another DAY?! Jerks.

Last night’s game was rather fluky. Rich Harden struck out 8
in less than 4 innings. But lots of wild and unpredictable control problems led
to him being pulled in the 4^th, after walking in two runs. In all,
between the 10 walks and the 2 hit batsmen, Rangers pitching gave up 12 bases.
It’s hard to win when you give away bases like that.

Today, CJ Wilson makes his starting debut of the season.
Very excited to see that. The rubber game on the line, I have no doubt he will
be the dominant starter he proved he can be in Spring Training.

It’s time to Baseball Party. It’s time to hit homeruns!
