The Texas Rangers are one win away from making history. After winning Game 5 of the 2011 World
Series by a final count of 4-2 over the St. Louis Cardinals, the Rangers need one more victory to
claim the franchise's first championship.
However, the news isn't all bad for the Cardinals. Game 6 and Game 7 are both going to be played
in St.
The St. Louis Cardinals appeared ready to take a big 2-0 lead in the 2011 World Series. Leading
1-0 in the ninth inning, the Cardinals turned to Jason Motte to close out the Texas Rangers. But
after two hits, great baserunning and a pair of sacrifice flies, the Rangers were able to escape
with a 2-1 victory and tied the World Series at 1-1.
Adrian Beltre of the Texas Rangers is proving to be one of the best free agent acquisitions in
all of baseball. The Rangers are playing great, Beltre is smashing and his defense has been
amazing. Unfortunately, we have to give you an Adrian Beltre injury update due to a pulled
hamstring.
Beltre pulled his hamstring on Friday against the Toronto Blue Jays during the fifth inning.
