0 for 15

5 innings, and not a single hit.  The Rangers are pressing and overswinging, instead of trying to get the good part of the bat on the ball.  They need to shorten up and try to make simply contact. 

I don't want to take anything away from Baker though...he's mixing his pitches well and his fastball has terrific movement.

Padilla is trying his best to match it and keep us in the game.  Just gave up a lead-off single in the 5th but no complaints about his performance.  Regardless of how the game turns out, he's done us a double favor, as this shows he's healthy again...which enhances his trade value.
