Rangers News
The Texas Rangers stumbled against the Boston Red Sox, dropping to 76-77 after a frustrating 4-3 loss that denied them a chance at a series sweep. Despite their impressive 72-1 record when leading after the seventh inning this season, Jacob Latz's inability to hold the lead yesterday stings, especially as the club's postseason hopes hang in the balance with just nine games left. Nathan Eovaldi continues to earn his 'Big Game Nate' moniker, but the Rangers can’t afford any more slip-ups in their pursuit of the AL West title. With their next showdown against the Toronto Blue Jays looming, every game feels like a must-win. The roster’s middle relief struggles could be the difference between playoff baseball and an early offseason, making their upcoming matchups critical in this tight race.
