Rangers starting pitcher Cliff Lee, touted all week as Mr. Unflappable, gave up hits and runs, the alleged superior Rangers fielding supplied the errors and, five Ranger relief pitchers later, the Giants won the first game 11-7.
Sigh. For all the talk of their being loose, I think the Rangers had the jitters in their first World Series game, which is understandable. Better luck in Game 2, when C.J. Wilson will be the starter. Put the claw on ’em, guys! And the antlers!
