Then Gardner complains on one that is a no doubt strike!

Garndner too fast for the deliberately played DP attempt.

What is Nelson Cruz's contract status? I was trying to look it up.

Free agent?

Rangers bullpen has to get 6 outs without giving up more than one run of their own to save the Rangers win.

When the bullpen came in a HR by the Yanks and the Rangers are still ahead, but now they didn't get an out yet and walked two making a HR now put the Yanks up. Pathetic!

It's sad to see the rangers bullpen about to blow this game after a great performance by Wilson

Rangers up 5-4 in the top of the eighth. There is no outs with runners on first and second for Robinson Cano.

Clay Rapada is the fourth Texas pitcher of the inning.

Young could have gotten in front of that A-Rod shot!

Should Washington have taken Wilson out to start the inning to give the inept bullpen a 4 run lead to protect, or did he do right in trying to get more out of Wilson and failing to get an out and give the bullpen only a 2 run cushion?

I think this is just on the players, the pitchers in the bullpen.

The starter went as far as he could and they had a good lead.

It's up to the bullpen to be good.

Looks like the Reds 8th inning bullpen woes of two years ago!

Posada nearly just capped it off but Cruz catches it at the wall

damage may be done anyway

but this is really big

Gardner can up the lead to at least two

if he does that I think it's game over, one run still a chance

On the 5th pitcher they finally get one who gets the outs, but he also gives up a broken bat single that drives in the lead run for the Yanks!

the difference between one run and two is huge with Rivera looming

that was still a good job by Holland to get Granderson and Gardner
