Saturday a.m. Rangers stuff

9 wins in a row, and a 2 1/2 game lead in the A.L. West.  Along with the Rangers playing Seattle tonight, Anaheim has a doubleheader against Oakland today.

Jeff Wilson's game story has quotes from Colby Lewis, who was angry with himself for not being able to close out a complete game shutout.

T.R. Sullivan's game story from yesterday's 4-0 win talks about the Rangers' league-best 3.19 road ERA.

Evan Grant offers his thoughts on the win.

Richard Durrett has his reactions to yesterday's victory.

Behind the paywall, Grant writes that the Rangers' starting pitching is keying this run.

Durrett says the Rangers played Ron Washington style baseball last night.

Wilson writes that new hitting coach Scott Coolbaugh is having an impact on the Rangers already.

Elvis Andrus wore down, physically and mentally, in 2010, so Ron Washington has been resting him more, and that has Elvis feeling good and ready for the second half.

The S-T's notes talk about Derek Holland's growth and Andres Blanco's injury.

Sullivan's notes hit on the Endy Chavez/Craig Gentry platoon staying in place for a while due to Julio Borbon's ankle injury, Arthur Rhodes and the team's hot streak.
