The Rangers are staying at the Westin St. Francis Hotel on Geary at Union Square. Just FYI for any autograph seekers.

Also: from an article on HULIQ - The Texas Rangers are visiting San Francisco on Wednesday and Thursday for the first two games of the World Series. Lefty O'Douls, a restaurant and bar founded and named for the San Francisco native and former major leaguer, has a plan in mind to keep them awake.

The Texas Rangers will be staying at the Westin St. Francis hotel. The hotel is just across the street from Lefty O'Douls.

"We're going to try to keep the Texas Rangersawake at night by playing a trumpet across the street and playing a song from the Alamo,"" Lefty o"Douls' spokesman John Fair told local TV station KRON 4's Will Tran. He added that Giants fans hope the "serenading" will keep the Rangers players awake at night, giving the Giants an edge.

If it works (and likely, if it were to happen, cops would be called and the "music" shut down), the Rangers could be in for more than two days without sleep. The forecast is for showers Thursday through Sunday, though the word "few" was inserted in front of "showers" in the Thursday forecast.
