It was a shame to end a wonderful season with an embarrassing loss. That said, 2011 was a tremendous success. I enjoyed this one as much as any I can recall. We only have to go back a short while to find a 119-loss season. To be within 2 games of the WS ain't half bad. JK
Tough loss, but a good season. Maybe it wouldn't have mattered, but I wonder if things might have been a bit different with Boesch in the lineup. In his short career he's had some of his best games against the Rangers. I think he had a five-hit, two-homer game down there and a walk-off homer against them at home this season.
