Last night all bats, today world class pitching.

Okay I'm not going to recap the entire game but I want to focus on the Wilson/Sheets match up.  Wilson had his seventh straight quality start since the beginning of the season, a Rangers record.  The only problem today was Sheets had his best start of the season.  The Rangers weren't able to put Sheets under any early stress and allowed him to stay in the game just as long as Wilson did.  In fact Sheets won the pitch count.  Matt Treanor getting kicked out after the Wilson balk was just crap.  That umpire apparently loves to eject people from games and has had a history with the Rangers in the past (same ump that got Padilla last season).
Finally in the bottom of the 12th Vlad had his 12th career walk off hit for the series win.  Thank God we won this series.  We now have a 2 game lead in the AL West as we go off on our road trip to Canada.
