Tuesday night against Kansas City, Lewis was just bad and may have been his own worst enemy.

Lewis loses again, Rangers swept by Royals
It was dog night at the ballpark, and I’m not sure the canine spectators or their human counterparts enjoyed tonight’s game. I know I didn’t. But at least I was at home, so I could get up and go do something else.
Colby Lewis looked terrible. It was almost a repeat of last week’s start in Baltimore … but without as many home runs … and moreÂ...

Josh Hamilton’s Home Run Derby: Legit or Lucky?
With two Silver Sluggers and an MVP award, the Rangers’ Josh Hamilton has
always been one of baseball’s elite, but his on-field injuries and off-field substances have
limited his potential throughout his career. However, you’ve probably heard that 2012 is

Rangers pitcher wears the wrong jersey
Your browser does not support iframes.
