Michael Young is a rally killer for us right now. He was so good in the regular season but can't get a hit to save his life in the playoffs. With Cabrera finally breaking through tonight, I'm hoping Young can do the same. But right now I think Ron Washington needs to at least consider moving him down in the lineup. We cannot have our cleanup hitter getting nothing every game.

Biggest turning point, IMO, of tonight's game was in the very first inning. Fister allowed three straight hits to start the game. Rangers led 1-0 with nobody out. Young comes up, hits into a DP, and that was that. Not only for that inning, but the rest of the game. Our offense never generated any momentum after that one play.
