Bradford’s Comeback Start Lights Up Rangers | Austin News

Cody Bradford made a triumphant return to the mound for the Texas Rangers, delivering a scoreless four-inning outing in his first start since 2024 — a comeback fueled by grit, experience, and a sharp command that helped secure a 6-0 win over the Giants. His performance gave the rotation a much-needed breather while narrowing the Astros’ lead in the AL West to just 1.5 games. With five strikeouts and two walks, Bradford navigated key baserunners without surrendering a run, throwing 70 pitches on his way to setting up the bullpen’s entrance. Though he didn’t qualify for the win, his impact was undeniable — and he’s already eyeing his next start, sticking to his simple, effective game plan: throw strikes, hit his spots, and trust the process.
