Texas Rangers back in 1st place
The Texas Rangers beat the Houston Astros 5-4 tonight, which is no surprise, but the game was quite good. The Astros played some good baseball, but in the end their weak bullpen made the difference.
Those that are Rangers fans know Nellie Cruz is now suspended. The good news is we picked up Alex Rios, who already paid dividends tonight. He hit a triple thanks to great baserunning and a bad defensive play in the Astros outfield which drove in the tying run and set himself up for the go ahead run.

favorite baseball player wearing some kind of freakish shoulder pads? 
I'm glad they're back in first. If my Halos aren't contenders, I want to see the Rangers in it.
