One More Day To Go!


Only more day to go until opening day!

I’m so excited that I’m going to share one of my favorite moments as a Rangers fan, the day that Rougned Odor punched out Jose Bautista.  This happened nearly 10 years ago and I still remember it like yesterday.  Watch Bautista’s glasses fly!  It couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy.

In Dallas, that moment was preserved in a mural.  Some people didn’t like this mural but baseball fans understood.

Here’s hoping for more classic baseball moments this season!

Go Rangers!

 

Scene That I Love: Rougned Odor Punches Jose Bautista


This scene isn’t from a movie but it is one that I love and that I’ve watched a dozen times today.

Here’s what those of us watching the Rangers/Blue Jays game saw yesterday.

I’m usually against violence and I don’t like it when grown men act like children but I’m also a Rangers fan and Jose “Bat Flip” Bautista got what he deserved.  After Bautista’s hard slide into 2nd base, Odor is lucky he didn’t end up with a broken leg and Bautista’s lucky that Adrian Beltre was there to carry him to safety.

Here it is again:

For the record, that game was the last time that the Rangers and Blue Jays are scheduled to play during the regular season.  With a final score of 6-5, the Rangers not only won the game but also swept the series!
