An ex-con named Robert Wayne Harris was executed on Thursday night after the U.S. Supreme court refused appeals to stall his punishment.

Beltre talks his way into lineup, hits decisive homer

Via Pro Sports Daily  |  September 21, 2012
Adrian Beltre essentially crawled into Texas Rangers manager Ron Washington's office Thursday afternoon, sat doubled over in a chair with stomach cramps and told his skipper he was ready to play. "That's Adrian Beltre," Washington said. "And when he says something, you believe him." In case there were any doubt, Beltre delivered a game-winning homer...

Via Fox Sports  |  September 22, 2012
Texas third baseman Adrian Beltre is back in the Rangers lineup against the Seattle Mariners, but that doesn't mean his stomach problems are completely solved.

Harrison goes the distance, offense goes missing

Via MyTeamRivals.com  |  September 22, 2012
Matt Harrison allowed one run on seven hits and struck out six over the course of eight innings.  Should have been good enough for a win, right? Wrong. The Rangers’ offense denied him that win.  Several times over.  They had eight hits and nothing to show for it.  There were three lead-off hits in the first three frames.  One was a double.   In the 8th, there was another...

Rangers lose 6-3 in Seattle

Via MyTeamRivals.com  |  September 22, 2012
After Adrian Beltre’s heroics last night, I was disappointed to find out he was not in the lineup (or Seattle) tonight.  He remained in Los Angeles for more tests.  Apparently, he’s still having intestinal issues.  Bummer. Have no fear … David Murphy is here.  It’s just a shame he couldn’t bat more often.  Three hits, three RBI.  Way to carry the offense tonight,...

A postseason berth could be secured over the weekend for the Texas Rangers, who are also inching closer to winning a third straight AL West title.
