Here are 26 Walk-Off Thoughts on the Indians’ 4-3 win against the Texas Rangers on Tuesday night.
1. Of course Mike Napoli came up to bat representing the tying run in the ninth inning. Of course he missed a game-tying home run by a few feet. Of course that was going to happen in the season-opening series.
2. Indians manager Terry Francona said before the game that being in the opposite dugout of a Napoli swing will make you flinch a bit. Napoli standing at the plate with a runner on second down two runs, everyone in the stadium knows he’s swinging for the upper deck.
