Thanks to our good friend and loyal reader TD, we now have a beautiful logo to run with the Home Run Pool. Of course, if we could find a fancy sponsor for our little pool, we’d put their logo with an active link right into this graphic. Hey, man, we’re just trying to catch up with Rangers Ballpark in Arlington and run adverts everywhere we can. But, seriously, thanks TD. You the man!
We’ll play blind for the time being so you can enter en masse before leaving the office. Once I do get a lineup, I’ll post it right here, but that will probably be around 6 or 7 your time.
And remember, we’ve got another weekly contest running with some where you can snag some Dr Pepper swag.
UPDATED, 7:13 p.m. CDT: Rangers lineup vs. RHP Jered Weaver: 2B Ian Kinsler, 3B Michael Young, CF Josh Hamilton, DH Andruw Jones, 1B Hank Blalock (10-for-24, 2 HRs vs. Weaver), LF Marlon Byrd, RF Nelson Cruz, C Jarrod Saltalamacchia, SS Elvis Andrus and pitching for the Rangers. … RHP Kevin Millwood.

Sweet logo

Blalock does smile rounding third, but quickly loses it and acts cool running across home plate.
