The Texas Rangers' season is officially over. And while Bruce Bochy might have called the way his team finished a "gut punch," it felt all too familiar in a year where the team got in its own way far too often.
On the final day of the regular season, Bochy's squad lost leads of 2-0, 5-2, and 8-5. It looked like they were poised to win their final game and clinch a winning record thanks to Rowdy Tellez's homer in the 10th. They twice had runners make outs on the bases, a day after having a runner thrown out at home.
