to go out there and make pitches until [La Russa] takes me out." Tonight the Rangers turn to righty Colby Lewis, who has been one of the better pitchers in the postseason the past two years, but lost his last time out. Lewis was tagged by the Detroit Tigers for four runs and eight hits in 5 2/3 innings of that Game 3 setback in the ALCS, but he is still 4-1 lifetime in the postseason with a 2.37 ERA in six starts. "Yeah, I mean, it's kind of all or nothing," Lewis said Wednesday. "You go out the

But, that's not to say they couldn't use Lee right now because like the Cardinals, the Rangers received next to nothing from their starting rotation in their six-game win over the Detroit Tigers in the ALCS. As they have been doing all season, the Rangers rode their incredible lineup to get by and got a record-setting performance from right fielder Nelson Cruz who set the all-time mark for most home runs (six) and RBI (13) in a posts

o Giants last year in their first- ever appearance.

Rangers slug their way back to World Series Sun Oct 16 00:03:58 2011 EST
Arlington, TX (Sports Network) - In two years the Texas Rangers went from never appearing in a World Series to winning back-to-back pennants, as a nine- run third inning Saturday launched them past the Detroit Tigers, 15-5, in Game 6 of the American League Championship Series. Michael Young bookended the pivotal third -- the most productive inning in Texas' limited playoff history -- with a pair of two-run doubles, then added a solo homer in the seventh for good measure. Nelson Cruz fittingly c

Tigers back Verlander with 4 HRs, win Game 5 Thu Oct 13 19:52:32 2011 EST
Detroit, MI (Sports Network) - In a bounce, the course of Game 5 changed direction with the ball. The Detroit Tigers faced elimination and prevailed, living to play another day. A few inches this way or that, and who knows? Miguel Cabrera's RBI double deflected off third base to spark a rally in the sixth inning, and Delmon Young hit a three-run homer to cap the four-run burst that propelled the Tigers to a 7-5 win over the Texas Rangers on Thursday. With Nelson Cruz showing no signs of slowing
Tigers short in the bullpen for Game 5 Thu Oct 13 13:09:55 2011 EST
Detroit, MI (Sports Network) - The Detroit Tigers will be a few arms short in the bullpen for Game 5 of the American League Championship Series against Texas, as both Jose Valverde and Joaquin Benoit will be unavailable. Tigers manager Jim Leyland said both right-handers will rest because they have pitched multiple innings over the last three games. The skipper is hoping ace Justin Verlander can take the Tigers deep into the game, which the Tigers need to win to stay alive in the series. "I wan

However, if they are going to reach the Fall Classic once again they will have to do so against the pitcher who has been the best in baseball this season in right-hander Justin Verlander. Verlander put forth one of the best years ever by a Tigers starter, as he won th

(Sports Network) - The Detroit Tigers called upon Doug Fister to extend their season in the American League Division Series. They may now need him to save it, as the American League Championship Series against the Texas Rangers shifts to Comerica Park for Game 3. After giving up six runs in 4 2/3 frames and getting the loss in the suspended Game 1 ALDS affair, Fister redeemed himself with a terrific showing in Thursday's Game 5, as he held the potent New York Yankees lineup to just a run and fi
