BOSTON - Against the team with the best record in baseball, the Rangers did not start their lone All-Star twice in three days.Nor did they use him, or even make a motion like they were about to, with the game on the line Wednesday over three opportunities in the final two innings.The result: The Rangers lost 4-2 to Boston and were swept right out of New England.But, hey, at least Shin-Soo Choo's club-record 48-game on-base streak lives for another day.It begs the question: Were the Rangers protecting the streak over a legitimate chance to win - two outs, bases-loaded and down two runs in the eighth inning?No, manager Jeff Banister said."We are in this to win games," manager Jeff Banister said.
