I don't know how people could not be watching this World Series figuring last nights game was unbelievable. The Rangers rallied in the 9th inning to tie the series up at one with the final score being 2-1.
Before that it was a pitching duel between the Rangers Colby Lewis and St. Louis' Jaime Garcia, Lewis went 6.2 innings letting up 1 run and striking out 4, while his counterpoint Garcia was dominant, going 7 letting up 3 hits and striking out 7.
The real story though was the defense, Elvis Andrus put on a clinic out their and was terrific especially on a diving, glove flip throw in the 5th. If Texas didn't have that great defensive play, they would be easily down 2-0.
The Rangers bats were silent until the 9th when they got to the unhittable Jason Motte. Motte allowed consecutive singles to open the ninth inning, and sacrifice flies by Josh Hamilton and Michael Young lifted the Rangers to a 2-1 victory Thursday night.
