      Lester did pretty well and, up until last year, he was known as one of the elite left-handers in the game.

        Yup it's been a moving target for both pitchers.

          As the game has went on, it's gotten better for Darvish, but Weaver is still getting squeezed pretty bad.

              Probably because Darvish has been a little more consistent in hitting his spots. Weaver's been all over the place.

              Not a great night for the umpires all the way around so far.

                A bunch of people just tweeted that Hamilton did the "jerk off" motion toward the fans in RF at Rangers Ballpark. Oh yeah, he's mad.

                  Seriously, who cares...the Ranger fans have acted like clowns all weekend anyway.

                    I was thinking the same thing! You can't intimidate someone and expect nothing to happen back, especially by a player. Well deserved Ranger Fans, Well deserved...

                      I just find it funny that Hamilton has played the victim throughout this ordeal, when the only reason he was booed was because he took a shot at the fans who had supported him through all of his screw-ups in the last 5 years. If he had kept his mouth shut, I'm sure he would've been given a pretty good ovation in the opening ceremonies on Friday and would've gotten mixed reactions the rest of the weekend.

                        Wait? What shot...the whole 'baseball town' thing? All he did was state the truth...it is what it is, but I found the treatment of him and his family this weekend pretty distasteful to be honest.

                          How did he take a shot at the fans? By saying DFW is a football town? That's absolutely true. He said there are true fans and that they were supportive (but got spoiled quickly, which did happen.)

                          I haven't seen him play the victim either. I don't hate or like the guy, he's just there for me, but it goes both ways. His wife having to call security is a disgrace.

                            Yeah, it's a football town, but there are very few places that are "baseball towns". It just felt like he went out of his way to make a comment about Rangers fans, especially after he was booed in the Wild Card game.


                            Hamilton said his wife and four daughters were treated “OK” in the stands,
                            although the Angels had security posted by them for precautionary reasons.

                            "Just guys being ugly, inappropriate to my wife," Hamilton said.
                            If they were treated "OK", and it was "just guys being ugly", it makes it sound like an isolated incident with a few drunk idiots. I don't have a problem with booing Hamilton and whatnot, but the people that take personal shots at him and his family are morons and make the entire fan base look bad.

                              Hopefully Rangers fans got it out of their system now. They've been more concerned about his performance and stats so far this season than Angels fans it seems.
