The Rangers could use fundamentals and that's a shame to say since these guys are professionals.  Why did Marlon Byrd not come home Tuesday against the Angels?  Why did Josh Hamilton throw that ball to the shortstop which allowed a run to score against Los Angeles?  Why did Ian Kinsler get picked off first base?  Why do the Rangers lead the AL in errors so far this season? Why can't the Rangers drive home runners when they are in scoring position?  Why didn't manager Ron Washington not bunt home Marlon Byrd after he led off the inning with a triple with no outs and was the tying run?  "Wash" knew his team was having trouble getting players across the plate. And who will take the blame for this all?  Ron Washington. Let's hope it doesn't come to that because Ron hasn't been dealt a fair hand.  GM Jon Daniels got a two-year contract extension earlier this year, but nothing was announced for Washington.   But doesn't the play of the team take on a reflection of its manager?  There's still a lot of baseball to be played.  However, if things don't turn around... some heads could start to roll.  What do you think?
