Rebels win series over Arkansas!
:D
Did y'all hear about Eli's first mini camp practice? Apparently it wasn't that great but he did better today.

Yeah, the baseball series win over Arkansas was huge, but we really needed the sweep. Oh well, luck may still come our way. Congrats Rebs!!!!

As for Eli's practice, tis to be expected on his first day. He's nervous and not used to the players. Of course, the nutsacks at ESPN loved bringing it to light.

Other weird baseball news...anybody see Saturday's Rangers/Tigers game? The Tigers scored 8 runs in the top of the 5th to go up 12-4, and then proceeded to allow the Rangers to score 10 runs in the bottom of the 5th to go up 14-12. I have a feeling that the Rangers single-handedly ruined to Tigers season with that one inning.

I don't know man, the Tigers turned around and won on Sunday and ended up taking 2 of 3 against Texas. I don't see the Tigers being a serious threat in the end, but they are already playing much better than last year, hell they already have 15 wins against 16 losses, I think they did not get their 15th win last year until September. :D

I didn't know they won Sunday. That has to be the most bizarre thing I've ever seen. We've all seen a team have a big inning. I remember Cleveland scoring 9 or 10 runs with two out in the ninth to tie the game and go to extras a few years ago. But for a team to go down by 8 runs in the top of an inning and to be ahead by 2 at the end, just bizarre. Yogi was right...it ain't over till it's over!

Now, if my Braves could just stay healthy and start winning consistently again...

yeah, the fifth inning lasted one hour and eight minutes. Incredible. Folks sure got their money's worth for sure.

Just imagine the pi$$ed off Ranger fans who left in the top of the 5th. :eek:

we have learned total apathy lately here in DFW towards the Rangers so most probably left before the fifth. Actually it is good to see the Rangers playing decent baseball again, now if someone would just come in and buy this team from that moron Tom Hicks, they might get back to the record they had BA (Before Alex)

The Rebels won their fist game of the series with the Gators...keep it up Rebels.

Rebels - 4
Gators - 2

Holliman went 7 2/3 innings. Struck out 7.
