Rangers Vs. Rays, ALDS Game 4: Nelson Cruz Puts Rangers On Board, Wade Davis Gone
That dinger made it a 5-1 game, and after Ian Kinsler followed with a line drive single, Joe Maddon decided it was time to pull Davis and go to the bullpen. Randy Choate is on for the Rays, and Davis' line is as follows:
5+ innings
7 hits
3 walks
7 strikeouts
94 pitches
The Rangers have blown some good opportunities, but that they're getting opportunities is encouraging as they try to rally here at home.
