ALCS Game Four, Texas 10, New York 3.

The rosin on Cliff Lee’s cap has a message for you:

The Texas Rangers are one win away from the World Series.

Acquired, with cash, for righthanders Chris Ray (who didn’t make the Giants’ NLDS or NLCS roster) and Michael Main.

Selected in the 25th round of the 2006 amateur draft, the final one in which draft-and-follow process was allowed, and signed 50 weeks later for fourth-round money.

Acquired, with Neftali Feliz and Matt Harrison and Jarrod Saltalamacchia and Beau Jones, for Mark Teixeira and Ron Mahay.

There are different heroes every night.

Including the man in the pinpoint collar.  And a whole lot of people on his crew.

The Texas Rangers are one win away from the World Series.
