Potentially the most unpredictable Playoffs ever

[jayshum]

Rangers remain unbeaten in the playoffs and take home field advantage away from Houston. I'm hoping the Phillies can give Arizona their first playoff loss tonight.

Houston finally on the board but still down 3 early. If they can't find a way to win this game, series could be over.

Rangers immediately got the run back.

Rangers up 2-0 and going home for the next 3 games. Doesn't look good for Houston.

Anyone who thinks the first inning doesn't matter as much as the ninth (all those closer discussions), see today's game.

Just like wins in April count the same as wins in September, runs in the first count as much as runs in the ninth. Sometimes it seems like early runs can count for more if you put a team into an early hole that makes them get into their bullpen early or start pressing at the plate to try to get back into the game quickly.
