If LaRussa starts Punto tonight again at 2b the Rangers have a chance. Has any starter in any World Series been more pathetic- more strikeouts, more runners left on base, etc.? Sheesh...
It has been a fun Series to watch but hardly a great Series. Game 6 last night was exciting but the bonehead base running, all the errors, etc. made it one of those exciting "bad" games. That said, Freese was incredible, couldn't have happened to a nicer guy and Nellie Cruz has been great.

It's been a great series - the best I've seen since '75, but it depends on what turns you on in a World Series.

The Rangers have more than just a chance and Vegas agrees. The Cards are the dogs tonight.

I'll go with 8-2 Rangers. I hope I'm wrong and it's more like last night, but with the correct team on top.

Cruz cost them the Series, so please strike any great from his name, unless of course he hits the game winner tonight, then re-insert, but for now he has to be THE goat, for easing up on that Freese ball that was catchable to end the game. Remove the R & E and add an O = GOAT!

Ain't that the truth. Washington had them in a 'prevent defense' specifically so that they could make plays like that. Feliz choked, but Cruz blew that play.

But no, Cruz didn't cost them the series - they're playing 7 this year.

It's about time someone brought up Cruz non-play in RF---He "cruzed" back instead of running and was obviously afraid of the wall! If Rangers lose Cruz is the new Billy Buck!

It's the WS, Game 6--you have a chance at being the World Champs! That ball HAS to be caught!

Rangers bounce back & win Game 7 in a high scoring affair---ALL the pitchers are out of gas!
