08:07 AM ET 10.29 | What if the Rangers were looking at a 3-0 deficit? Staring at the fangs of an embarrassing sweep, would [Cliff] Lee come back on three days' rest for Game 4? Would he make the stretch for a team that has only a longshot chance of signing him this winter? Would Lee do for the Rangers what he'd never done for the Indians or Mariners in past regular seasons, or the Phillies in last year's World Series? Seems hard to fathom, considering Lee is only weeks away from free agency. ... The issue was raised following the Rangers' 9-0 flogging in Game 2, when Ron Washington was asked directly if Lee would be enlisted for Game 4. The manager side-stepped the question by saying, "that's something we'll decide in-house."

Now that they are out of their House of Horrors, hopefully they make this a series now.

But they will definitely have to go back to win it. If they get that far. Rangers got the jitters there. How many walks? Ooof.

Why not work Lee on short rest? Long rest didn't work out, so what the hell.

I think the Ranger pitchers are having difficulty adjusting to NL hitting. But I think they've got the Giants feeling over confident, so it's smart strategy.

No Home Team that's won the first two games has every lost a series. I'd call that a long shot.

I wonder WHO lit the fire under the Giants arss's, 9/0 thats pretty one sided I'd say, Im sure Texas will bounce back, at least so the series looks like a series.
MR NICE.

I think the Rangers are just plain having difficulty pitching at all, regardless of "NL hitting".

The Giants have been resting their bats all season so they wouldn't be tired in the Series.

I wonder if Washington has reconsidered his decision to pull O'Day with two outs in the eighth.
