Hell Freezes Over!!!


Hell has officially frozen over as Ranger Left Fielder Mike LaRocco was allowed to play the infield for the first time since 2001! " I would like to thank the Rangers for this great opportunity to play the infield, and am glad that my error only led to a handful of runs!" says LaRocco. The Rangers could not believe it when LaRocco came within an eyelash of turning a double play. Ranger first basemen Matt Swary stated "I was not expecting him to throw the ball, and when he did, i thought he was going to throw in his usual wild way, so i got ready to play goalie!" To everyone's amazement, the throw was indeed accurate. Lather in the inning, LaRocco did mishandle a throw to pick up the error, but he did cleanly field a groundball and successfully threw the runner out at first base. "It was weird to see the game from a different angle, i would like to thank Ranger Manager Tim Brannon for giving me this chance as he had previously said there was no chance in hell of me playing the infield!" said a happy Mike LaRocco.
