Rangers 9, Indians 2

  • Hey, a blowout! Just the way to start off a series on the road.
  • Derek Holland, currently viewed as the weak link (or weakest link) in the Rangers rotation, had a nice, workmanlike outing. Only two K's today, but also just one walk, and Holland just needed 92 pitches to get through six innings. I thought they might let Holland pitch the seventh, to help save the pen, but Jeff Banister opted to bring Cesar Ramos into the game with an eight run lead and the opportunity for a three inning save.
