Terrific outing from Matt Harrison, who I think is slotted to be the Rangers' #2 starter in the playoffs, behind Yu Darvish.

Terrible outing from the Rangers offense, which was shut out by Blake Beavan and a couple of M's relievers.

The Rangers are still four games up on Oakland, and the Magic Number is now 8, but their lead over the Yankees for the best record in the A.L. is down to just 1.

The S-T's game story is now behind a paywall, so I can't tell you what it has to say.

The game story at the Rangers' website talks about Harrison keeping the Mariners down, as he almost always does, but getting no support from his offense.

Taylor Soper has his "Rapid Reaction" at the ESPN Dallas site.

Evan Grant has his thoughts on last nights game at the DMN Rangers blog.

Behind the paywall, Grant writes that the Rangers need to work out the kinks in their offense.

Joey Matches has some thoughts on the Josh Hamilton drama of the last week.

Grant has some quotes from Ron Washington about the failed hit-and-run with Jurickson Profar at the plate on Friday.

The Rangers' website notes talk about Ron Washington still having confidence in Alexi Ogando, Adrian Beltre possibly needing surgery after the season, Mike Napoli's playing time, and Craig Gentry starting while Hamilton is out.

The S-T's notes are also behind a paywall, so no telling what they are.
