The Rangers achieved the very elusive walk-off strikeout in yesterday's win over the Mariners last night.
Nelson Cruz of the Rangers was up in a tie game with a runner on first base with two out in the bottom of the ninth inning. Cruz then struck out however the strike out pitch was a wild pitch and the runner on first, Mitch Moreland scored on a throwing error.
"I sent Nelson up there to get it done, and he got it done," - Rangers manager Ron Washington.

Wow, that's very weird. I bet it's one of those "happened less than 20 times ever" kind of plays!
...and wasn't it MORELAND who "got it done" by hustling around?
I would be syrprised if it happened 20 times.
