ST. LOUIS — They've been the Rangers biggest postseason threats, and both Mike Napoli and Nelson Cruz will be in the lineup for Game 7 of the World Series.
Napoli twisted his ankle awkwardly during the fourth inning Thursday night. He stayed in the game, but underwent X-rays afterward. They came back negative, but there was still some question if he'd be ready to go.
Cruz came out of the game after his final at-bat in the 11th inning when he strained his right groin.
Both players occupying their usual spots in the order. And here's the full lineup for tonight:
- 2B Ian Kinsler
- SS Elvis Andrus
- CF Josh Hamilton
- 1B Michael Young
- 3B Adrian Beltre
- RF Nelson Cruz
- C Mike Napoli
- LF David Murphy
- LHP Matt Harrison
