Rangers take 2 out of 3 from the Sox's and had a shot at a sweep until the kid pitcher made a "minor" error. Elvis is playing a lot better and Kinsler is looking like an MVP candidate. O'Day is really tough on right handed batters but in deep trouble against left handed ones.

12-12 after 24 games that is where I would like to see this team finish at .500 or a couple of games above.

Rangers take 2 out of 3 from the Sox's and with a few more hits would have had a sweep. This team starters have pitched really well in the last 4 starts should it continue they have a shot. 5-2 road trip take that all day long especially with Davis starting to find his bat again.
