TEX - FF, ML, RevRL 1/2
Rangers figured they would need 2 wins from one of their pitchers to win this ALCS - but who would have guessed that pitcher could be Colbly Lewis – not Cliff Lee.
Both pitchers are wild cards - but a lot less pressure on Lewis.
Although Rangers only 15-19 in Lewis' starts overall in 2010 - he's been on a roll in his last 7 starts giving up no more than 2 runs in any of them. He'll again be on a short leash - he usually doesn't pitch deep in games -hasn’t seen the 7th in more than a month – yet he got it done in a huge Gm 2.
The Yanks looked more like themselves in the last one - but have still been outscored 32-18 in this series - and out hit .316 to .217.
