Rangers need starters to step up in the World Series
ARLINGTON, Tex. The one thing the Texas Rangers could count on their march to the American League West championship was their starting pitching.
Since the playoffs began, the Rangers have been able to win despite their starting pitching.
It's possible because the Rangers have a stout bullpen, the trend could continue when the Rangers meet St. Louis starting Wednesday night...

Texas bats will be Cards' final test
I am so tempted to pick the Cardinals. By the end of this column, I just might.
The Cardinals have home-field advantage -- no small thing, considering the way the Rangers hit in Texas.
They've got the superior manager -- Tony La Russa, at the peak of his considerable powers.
And they've got a lineup that matches up well against the Rangers' three left-handed starters...
Wilson, Carpenter meet in Series opener (AP)
The coolest person at the World Series is C.J. Wilson. The Texas Rangers pitcher chilled out as he prepared to face the St. Louis Cardinals in Wednesday night's opener. He spent 2 1/2 minutes in a Dallas cryotherapy chamber, where liquid nitrogen lowered the temperature to a frosty 295 degrees below zero in an effort to speed body recovery.

Jackson is going to have to step it up to give the Cards their best chance
The Cards were able to get past the Brewers. They were underdogs for that series, and for their opening series against the Phillies, but it has been their pitching that has surprised and made their improbable run possible. 36 year old Chris Carpenter has showed no signs of fatigue, despite pitching 237.1...
Texas Rangers Repeat As AL Champions
I give them a chance to take it all.The World Series will begin in a National League City, either St. Louis or Milwaukee.If it is Milwaukee, it was an AL City in 1997. It then became an NL City in 1998 when the Brewers were switched over.There is talk of switching the Houston Astros to the AL. But then an Interleague Game would occur every night in MLB.The Astros, born the Colt 45s...

Texas tabs Lewis for Game 2 of World Series
Rangers manager Ron Washington said Colby Lewis will be his Game 2 starter against the Cardinals on Thursday night. He will follow C.J. Wilson, who is pitching the World Series opener on Wednesday night at Busch Stadium.
Oh Those Base on Balls
The Cardinals beat the Rangers 3-2 in game one of the 2011 World Series. The difference in the game turned out to be the walks. The Rangers pitchers walked six batters, all by C.J. Wilson. The last one, in the sixth inning, brought up Allen Craig to pinch hit, and he delivered the game winning RBI. Wilson failed to go after Nick Punto, a career .249 hitter, and it cost the Rangers...
