Thoughts on a 4-1 win
by Adam J. Morris on May 16, 2012 10:13 PM CDT
Rangers 4, A's 1
- If anyone ever asked me, I would recommend not proposing marriage to your girlfriend on the Rangers Live postgame show.
- Ho hum, another boring Yu Darvish start. For the fifth time in eight starts, Darvish allowed no more than one earned run, going 7.2 innings, giving up 4 hits, walking 2, and striking out 7. Jemile Weeks reached base three times against Darvish. So did the other eight batters in the A's lineup, combined. Darvish now has a 2.60 ERA on the season, and since allowing 4 runs in his first inning of the season, Darvish has a 1.90 ERA.
- Mike Adams came in with two on and two out in the 8th, threw 5 pitches, got out of the inning, and then gave way to Joe Nathan in the 9th inning. This isn't anything new, but it makes me wonder how this is sensible pitcher usage. Why not leave Adams in the game to pitch the 9th, with a 3 run lead, and with Adams having barely broken a sweat in the 8th?
