G12: Rangers Sweep Sox with 6-3 win

Posted by Joe Siegler on April 19, 2012 at 10:56 pm http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/gameday/index.jsp?gid=2012_04_18_texmlb_bosmlb_1&mode=wrap>MLB.com Recap

It’s only a two game series, but it’s a sweep just the same.

We took game two against Boston 6-3.   I didn’t get to see or hear hardly any of this – just a few peeks at the MLB At Bat app when the game was on.   Still, Derek Holland did quite well, going to 2-0 on the young season.  He pitched 7, allowed just four hits.  Three walks and 7K’s.   In fact, both of the runs he gave up were on a home run ball to Kevin Youkilis.

The Rangers offense was led by Josh Hamilton & Mike Napoli.  Napoli homered again, his fourth straight game with one.  Mike was 3-4, he also had a double.  He also raised his batting average from .207 to .273, an increase of 66 points!  He’s certainly figured it out the last few games. Mike had all the extra base hits this game, with a home run and a double.

Josh Hamilton also tore it up, going 3-4, raising his average to .440.

Joe Nathan came in with the Rangers up four runs, and gave up one.   Wish he’d get more solid.

About Site

This is a Texas Rangers fan site run by Joe Siegler. From 1999 through 2013 I used to do daily game updates, but got burnt out on that and stopped.

The site lives on as my favorite section to update I’m still very interested in. That is the Uniform Number history pages, which I’m quite proud of. Plus Ill write the odd article here and there.

I mostly spend my time in this Facebook group talking about the Rangers these days.

If you have any questions, please feel free to drop me a line.
