The Rangers Wil Be Playing The Diamondbacks In The World Series!

Posted on by Dazzling Erin

Congratulations to the Arizona Diamondbacks for winning the NLCS!  They beat the Phillies in Game 7 and I’m actually really proud of them.  Just like with my Rangers when they were playing the Astros, the Diamondbacks were the underdogs.  A lot of people wrote off their chances with the Phillies took the lead in the series.  But the Diamondbacks never gave up and never stopped fighting and they won Game 7 with a score of 4-2!

Not only did both the Rangers and the Diamondbacks prove the naysayer wrong but they also saved us from having to sit through another Phillies/Astros World Series.  I’ll be cheering for my Rangers but I’m still happy for the Diamondbacks and all of their fans!

Go Rangers!

The Rangers Are Going To The World Series!

Posted on by Dazzling Erin

They went into the playoffs as definite underdogs.  A lot of people said they wouldn’t even make it through the Wild Card.  They said there was no way they’d sweep the Orioles.  They said the Astros had all the momentum in the ALCS.  The Astros and their fans certainly were quick to let you know that they were expecting an easy victory.

Well, guess what?

THE RANGERS ARE GOING TO THE WORLD SERIES!

There’s a saying.  The only thing better than winning a game is winning a game against The Astros.  The only thing better than winning a game against the Astros is winning a game against the Astros in Houston.  And the only thing better than winning a game against the Astros in Houston is winning a game that sends you to the World Series!

I AM SO PROUD OF MY TEAM!

The Astros put up a good fight whenever they were in Arlington but, in this end the was the Rangers’s year.

GO RANGERS!

The Diamondbacks Tie Up The NLCS!

Posted on by Dazzling Erin

Congratulations to the Diamondbacks for tying up the NLCS by defeating the Phillies and forcing a Game 7!  Both the ALCS and the NLCS have been really exciting this season.  I can’t wait for the World Series!

Speaking of Game 7… GO RANGERS!  Later Tonight, we shall know which team will be representing the American League in the World Series and, after one more game, we’ll know who they’ll be facing from the National League.

The Rangers Tie Up The ALCS!

We are going to Game 7!

Tonight, the Rangers defeated the Asstros, winning by a score of 9-2!  With this victory, the Rangers tied up the ALCS.  The next game will determine who is going to the World Series and I can’t wait to cheer my team to what I hope will be a Rangers victory!

The best part of tonight’s game?  Adolis Garcia, who was deliberately hit by an Asstros pitch during the last game, got his revenge by hitting the grand slam that let Houston know that they weren’t going to stage a comeback in the 9th.

Go Rangers!

The Phillies Now Lead The NLCS

Posted on by Dazzling Erin

With their 6-1 victory over the Diamondbacks tonight, the Phillies now lead the NLCS.  Both the Phillies and the Astros are one victory away from playing each other in the World Series for the second year in a row.

We all know that we, as baseball fans, deserve better than that.

Rangers and the Diamondbacks can still turn this thing around.  All it will take is one victory for each to re-tie the series and force a Game 7.  Rangers and Diamondbacks, we’re depending on you!

Go Rangers!

Congratulations to the Diamondbacks!

A big congratulations to the Arizona Diamondbacks for beating the Phillies 5-6 and tying up the NLCS!

I really hope the Diamondbacks can maintain their momentum and win their conference because, just in case the Asstros do end up in the World Series, it’ll be at least easier for me to cheer against them if they’re playing against Arizona than if they’re playing against Philadelphia.  If the Philadelphia and Houston end up in the World Series, I’ll have to cheer for Houston by default.  If it’s Houston and Arizona, I’ve got some breathing room.

Of course, my main hope is that the Rangers will get it together and win the next two games of the ALCS!

Go Rangers!

The Astros Now Lead The ALCS

This game was painful!

The Rangers went into the ninth leading the Astros but then Jose Altuvie hit his 26th season post-season career home run and the score went from being 2-4, Rangers to 5-4, Astros.  The Rangers always seem to struggle at home but the good news is that, lately, Houston has been struggling at their home too.  The ALCS is returning to Houston so let’s hope the Rangers can turn things around.  The Astros are one game away from returning to the World Series and, if they’re joined by the Phillies, it’ll be another years with two most hated teams in the league fighting it out in the World Series.

Normally, I’d cheer for Astros in that case but I might not this year.  Not after Martin Maldonado deliberately hit Adolis Garcia with a pitch.  Way to keep up classy, Houston.  It would take a lot to make me support a team from Philadelphia but the Astros are really determined to help me do it.

Go Rangers!

The ALCS Is Tied Up

Posted on by Dazzling Erin

That was brutal.  Tonight, the Astros won Game 4 of the ALCS by a score of 10-3.  The ALCS is all tied up now.  You all know I’m a Rangers fans so tonight’s game was hard to watch.  But if I’m going to brag whenever the Rangers win, I guess I have to be willing to acknowledge when they get beat, too.

I’ll always love my team no matter what happens but I hope tomorrow’s game is a better one for the Rangers.

Go Rangers!

Congratulations to the Diamondbacks On Winning Game Three of NLCS!

Posted on by Dazzling Erin

Congratulations and a big thank you to Arizona Diamondbacks for winning Game 3 of NLCS and bringing some suspense to the MLB playoffs!  Based on the past two games in the NLCS, I thought the Phillies were going to sweep the series but, with their 1-2 victory over the Phillies, the Diamondbacks have proven that they’re still in this!

Now, let’s how things go in Arlington.

Congratulations to the Rangers For Still Leading The ALCS!!!

Congratulations to the Texas Rangers for continuing the lead the ALCS by 2 games to 1!

Tonight’s game was difficult for me, as a Rangers fan, to watch.  The Astros won the game by a score of 8-5.  The Rangers did come alive for two innings and they managed to narrow the Astros lead down to three runs but, in the end, the Astros came out on top.

I know there was a chance this would happen.  The Rangers have been undefeated in the playoffs up until tonight and it’s rare for any team to keep up that type of streak.  Hopefully, tomorrow will be a better game for my team and we’ll clinch that third victory on our way to four.

Go Rangers!
