  • Powerless Texas Rangers go down in homestand opener against Cleveland

    The Texas Rangers didn’t score but the Cleveland Guardians scored seven runs. Home cooking was not the cure of what ails the bats of the Rangers, apparently. The good news is Marcus Semien collected Texas’ first extra base hit — a double — in their last 19 innings. The game was 4-0 by that point and he was not driven in. Player of the Game: Michael Lorenzen is the latest starter to be saddled with a no-decision in a performance worthy of a victory as he flirted with a no-hitter while ultimately...

  • Texas Rangers lose to baseball’s worst team

    The Texas Rangers scored two runs but the Colorado Rockies scored four runs. After scoring in double digits in three of their last six contests on this road trip, you’d have thought that a trip to Coors Field would have kept the runs flowing but the Rangers ran into another left-handed starter that not even lineup savior Robbie Grossman could solve which led to a pitchers’ duel with Jon Gray on the mound for Texas. Gray, for as good as he’s been so far this season, was uncharacteristically...

  • Texas Rangers really hate their mothers, lose to Colorado Rockies

    The Texas Rangers scored a pitiful one run while the Colorado Rockies scored three runs. The Rangers, who lead the American League in runs scored somehow, are 20th in baseball and 12th in their own league in ISO at .137. Today, the Rangers outhit the Rockies nine to seven but each of Texas’ nine hits were singles whereas Colorado had a couple of extra base hits, including a two-run home run, literally the difference in the game. Right now, and for much of the year, if the Rangers aren’t...

  • Texas Rangers soil their City Connects with loss to Los Angeles Angels

    The Texas Rangers scored three runs but the Anaheim Angels scored nine runs. Sure the Rangers were facing another last place team but Anaheim turned to a left-handed starter tonight so the five hits collected by the Rangers has to be considered something of a boon. At the very least, Texas turned their meager output of base hits into runs via extra base knocks but, by the time they really did anything at the dish (just two hits entering the eighth inning), the game was pretty much well out of...
